Life

Choose life Aw f*ck this shit This is life In general, a life lived worth loving Is in discussion for us to objectively Question any reason this would be considered happiness Crazy to think one who could drift out of blue glassy stream And a straw, so easy, life passes no, flashes by Then why do we question why, and how exactly long? We have to change our mind To realize life hasn't been given to us, it has been taken And we've taking it for granted, life The odd question, do you question? August, a rush of heat, a dying need for something to combust I frankly found myself in the middle of a genius maze With a land to hold down and a new life to embark on Yeah, it's why I partnered up Frankly found myself in the middle of a genius maze With a land to hold down and a new life to embark on So I partnered up to leave one last note on the scale of power chords Stomach ulcers and broken hearts So what do you do, advice columns in dog training? How is everyone so content with boredom, yeah, yeah The army, the wars, the crazy shit around the corner The fuckin' news? It leaves a question mark How you choose to obtain a so-called normal life can determine How crazy you think you actually maybe might be, or are Can you do one thing well, like really, really well? So what do you do well? Such a surprise, one who knows someone who speaks More than one language or holds one job All my life thinkin' one was enough and it's not I wanna switch when my heart rate sky rockets I wanna lay down when you wanna run I wanna run layin' down I'm more into love, music, people, hip hop scene Not sports, big brother is the machine Yet, you still feel ashamed to be around the one who loves the most Who I truly am a sign of failure to them They want to see, in the big picture is None of who I am right now I know everything changes, but I also know Giving up on the things I love is depressing to who I truly am And regurgitating what my family wants to see Independence from my family, accepted into the hip hop scene Folklore sounds more exciting than a career, what God knows Why I bleed. One day it'll all make sense And if my success never reaches that material level I'll know inside, that everything I did it for me The one time in my life I contemplate turning everything to me Faith, the music, the people Then your family turns on me Monkey on my back, well that would be a relief Just considering the 220 pound cinderblocks that rest deep Into my shoulders as of today, these words I try to respect Gray, in your black and white world I didn't start (in your black and white world) A dynasty, a business scheme (in your black and white world) Didn't have a kid at twenty-five (in your black and white world) Stay out late, couldn't be a husband (in your black and white world) There is something else out there for me, I dream it every night I'm there already, helping kids, going thru what I did Ten years straight, coping cause I did Don't quit, find a way, some how, some way, stay on stage And express yourself in terms you fell in love with in the first place Now as I write this, I presently have lost support No keys, so it seems, my pocketbook Under a roof I never wanted in the first place Yeah, beautiful, right? I hadn't shed a tear in over a year Tapped out, question everything Reach, instructed every step I took I'm like expensive sunglasses, always gettin' lost Why can't a be a set of keys? I wanna be used see? Me, me But alone on a day with you, more than likely will consider to be Any comparison woulda had a dream last night I drive in circles every day cause I have nothing to look forward to Except you. Sleep, cause everything is muddy Thirteen thousand passive means money Club music, this is money I can't survive, yet this is money Performin' it, distortin' it I'm producin' it, I'm livin' it This is my compromise, I did it So for now, I just need some money And a gun, no a job, no I just want You did it J gimme that gun
