Piece of Mine

In reality I crave peace, The perfect form of bliss though I learned There's no such thing, as happiness It's what you make it Call it energy Man made Words, So hard for us to see between Looked to my brother like what's god if you don't see it in yourself? The main focus always money but you never seen your wealth How could you ever add tax? You left your soul all on the shelf nigga Damn, Got to learn to understand yourself I know i said i crave peace but does that come with peace of mind? Can't have it all to myself so i handed a piece of mine In hopes of inspiration entailing others to be sublime, Better than me Set an example wan' give them something better to see Light up a candle, Smell the aroma Feel the relief Cause and effect but some call it karma it's bittersweet Guess we all got to die someday So those just lessons I pray that this don't weigh on your soul i know that it's hectic It seems that life been taking a toll on me causing stress, It seems that my throat chakra been open sit and collect This knowledge that I spit when I'm gone it won't be much left Just drop me in some regular shit when i lay to rest, And quote me on some regular shit let them know I'm next A star in the flesh Fell from the sky but I'm still blessed Quit putting that shit on they still label me best dressed It's about your confidence, not the linens you choose to wear It's about your common sense, not how kinky you wear your hair But they done taught us not to love ourselves, to live in fear To live in fear of what? Of melanin and pigs and shells To live in fear of who? Without spirit we won't prevail These universal laws we've been taught to learn by ourselves These universal laws we ignored cause we live in hell These universal laws i can't teach, got to learn as well These universal laws that i leave in the form of spells I Understand that everyone feels alone, We can't really take the time to comprehend another experience while living through our own If i could take myself out of this shell, Empty my soul into the waters Spread vibrations across the pacific Then maybe you'd feel a little closer to me But as of now nothing physical, Only sound waves that i can offer I know i said i crave peace but does that come with peace of mind? Can't have it all to myself so i handed a piece of mine In hopes of inspiration entailing others to be sublime, Better than me Set an example wan' give them something better to see Light up a candle, Smell the aroma Feel the relief Cause and effect but some call it karma it's bittersweet Guess we all got to die someday So those just lessons I pray that this don't weigh on your soul i know that it's hectic
