Playing in PAINt

Painful with pain on my side Drainin' this Pain in my mind Playin' in paint like I'm fine F*ck all the waitin, it's time I play with planes tryin' to fly Been low but still gettin' high, I feel insane and alive This crazy pain that's inside me I'm gettin' tired of feelin' weak And swimmin' deep up Shit's Creek It got me seekin' under trees, tryin' to See where gifts be And every time the wind blows I feel the breeze Might flip me My papa labeled me a hippie, black gypsy While tipsy at the bar lookin' iffy They like, who the hell is he Painful with pain on my side Drainin' this pain in my mind Playin' in paint like I'm fine, yeah F*ck all the waitin, it's time, for me to reach my higher mind It's odd how I beat divine But a nigga had to climb Thank Lord that he sent a nigga Signs I hear the ghost of my lost ancestors from the coast May their fire guard my heart since they died on a roast When the soldiers from the east docked with they swords and boats Makin' slaves out the ones that owned all the gold Cause take to have is more than old I wake to warm up to my soul in a world that's so cold And tell me how this world holds Dark parts of the soul Yeah Hold dark parts of the soul Painful with pain on my side Drainin' this pain in my mind Playin' in paint like I'm fine, yeah F*ck all the waitin, it's time, for me to reach my higher mind It's odd how I beat the vine, but a nigga had to climb Thank Lord that he sent a nigga, Signs
