Hope in light

huh, yeah hmm... yo Sunny day it won't stay The storm will rain I hope in light but darkness reigns So its portrayed I brave that lie I pray don't cave My eyes are glazed As I walk thru haze Life's a maze Looped in play We run in place Giving chase to papes The slight we gain Is lost in spades Flesh is flayed So it obeys The spirits crave Of peace within This skin it lives in Sin's sadistic Weu0027re toys in its game The end's intrinsic It's so complex I keep it simplistic My soul gets vexed When it thinks statistics I decompress thru Self-forgiveness To ease my stress And to flex linguists (Instrumental chorus [oooh... oooh...]) Iu0027ve climbed too high for me to lose hope Locked 9 to 5 just to be broke Worked all my life just get soaked Smoke blind our eyes, we whipped to go vote Iu0027ve climbed too high for me to lose hope Locked 9 to 5 just to be broke Worked all my life just get soaked Smoke blind our eyes, we whipped to go vote We know ourselves enough (enough, enough) To know we're not enough (enough, enough) Though life is really tough (tough, though) It's bad when young and dum (dum, dum) But worse if old and stuck on dum, Still, earth will turn And one day turn on us After breath escapes our lungs For good Our works will follow us to dust For good Love and lust will cease to be For good Seeds will grow producing fruit For good Life and death are Cruel as understood But God can take whatu0027s bad And make it good Reason I was lifted Out the soot Gladly gifted wisdom From deep root Thus, the snake around My leg is looped But its head is firmly 'neath my boot For good (Instrumental chorus [oooh... oooh...]) Iu0027ve climbed too high for me to lose hope Locked 9 to 5 just to be broke Worked all my life just get soaked Smoke blind our eyes, we whipped to go vote Iu0027ve climbed too high for me to lose hope Locked 9 to 5 just to be broke Worked all my life just get soaked Smoke blind our eyes, we whipped to go vote Some folk go to church to praise the Lord Thinking HE Can be contained with walls Others read His word To know him more But give more heed To manu0027s vain allure One thing is sure All in time Becomes manure Except His Law Accept the fall We're made with flaws Still grace abounds above it all The great is least Justice will feast Upon the beast To avenge the fleeced Forsooth as the Sun Rise out the East My speech runs deep Think Ancient Greece Days grow bleak We find no peace We're hard to please But could it be That weu0027ve come to see How our life is leased And how death in between Each breath does..live... We gonna live... Iu0027m gonna live... Live, live, live Iu0027ve climbed too high for me to lose hope Locked 9 to 5 just to be broke Worked all my life just get soaked Smoke blind our eyes, we whipped to go vote Iu0027ve climbed too high for me to lose hope Locked 9 to 5 just to be broke Worked all my life just get soaked Smoke blind our eyes, we whipped to go vote Iu0027ve climbed too high for me to lose hope Locked 9 to 5 just to be broke Worked all my life just get soaked Smoke blind our eyes, we whipped to go vote Iu0027ve climbed too high for me to lose hope Locked 9 to 5 just to be broke Worked all my life just get soaked Smoke blind our eyes, we whipped to go vote
