Dice Fall

Times change, people drift apart The memories engraved, put in my art Love turns to hate, jealousy and envy I wonder why some resent me Try to curse instead of bless me I filled them up, yet they try to leave me empty But I guess it's just the way the dice fall Going through life and its cycles See I would die for them, but they lie on him I would ride for them, they tried to slide on him I took the chains of them, they tried to cage me in Word cold got hotter than a Cajun damn I tried to lead them to the light, wanted long kiss goodnight on my life Said I'm slick, I just shoot up off the hip on sight Gave them a clean slate, they tried to me dirty Showed them their worth, then they said I wasn't worthy Home in the sky, they tried to leave me under earth V I-C the lies every time I pull the rug GOD on my soul they drained my energy More than a few, dealt with this since elementary Said I'd see young death - Be a wandering ghost, a lost soul Or I'll be locked in penitentiaries The scapegoat, no forgetting they remember me Into the good night, they thought I would go gently I shared my vision, now they're out of sight I had to detox off that toxic diet, now I'm alright Doing better moving clever - Reign forever Whatever weather you just know that I'm on King not a pawn, shining like the Sun golden Stand tall, wont fall - Feel the pressure Get a grip and hold on Stay strong, the saga goes on Times change, people drift apart The memories engraved, put in my art Love turns to hate, jealousy and envy I wonder why some resent me Try to curse instead of bless me I filled them up yet they try to leave me empty But I guess it's just just the way dice fall Going through life and it's cycles Told them I'm headed to the top they said I'm fated for the bottom Thought I'd be left for dead and forgotten I was coming of age, they thought I was rotting While I was strategizing, they were plotting Scheming trying to steal my dream and I was on fire, they were just steaming Weight heavy on my shoulders, they kept on leaning I saw the sky, while they only saw the ceiling I built the throne, now they want the crown Spread my wings, then they tried to pull me down More than that, they want to see me drown Then I found my second breath under water We cast lots, always seem to get the shorter end of the stick Still I stand didn't split, did my math on it, put my stamp on it The last laugh always seems to last the longest Watching time pass through the hourglass Dalit - damn they said I was an outcast Bulls eye, somehow always hit the target Thought I was behind them, then they got lapped Thought they had mad bars, and then I rapped Jealousy hate and envy intensified the habitat Guess it's just the way the dice fall Going through life and its cycles Times change people drift apart The memories engraved put in my art Love turns to hate, jealousy and envy I wonder why some resent me Try to curse instead of bless me I filled them up yet they try to leave me empty But I guess it's just the way the dice fall Going through life and its cycles Times change people drift apart The memories engraved put in my art Love turns to hate, jealousy and envy I wonder why some resent me Try to curse instead of bless me I filled them up yet they try to leave me empty But I guess it's just the way the dice fall Going through life and its cycles
