Don't Swan Dive in Dark Waters (feat. Prof.Parks)

Everybody got a dark side And dark thoughts They just might be in the archives They say we made in his image so am I good in God's eyes? And online is where we livin' our lives Where we flex to compensate for not havin' a strong mind We go through hard times Pretendin' we don't have a soft side We tell small lies Really it be all pride They always say that what's done in the dark will come to light And you need some light to make a seed come to life But everything be watered down I see darkness all around Not to mention that it's harder when your skin a darker brown We hide the frownin' by drownin' in dark liquor Dark cloud over me it's hard to see the large picture You gotta pay the bill when they cut off your power In other words you gotta depend on yourself in your darkest hour Cause throwin' darts in the dark is even hard for a sharp shooter Don't know when to smile, life be feelin' like its dark humor Let's separate the black swan without the white swan You either down with Babylon or climbin' up Mount Zion Forgettin' what I need just thinkin' about what I want Comin' up through the ranks like skaters on a ice pond Farewell to the fathers, and sayin' goodbye mom In public, I've been withdrawn from crayons to Krylon Dead rappers turn into murals and they're called icons Before I'm gone, rather become the next Carl Icahn Lettin' bygones be bygones, been up all night long Since eleven PM, fell asleep by dawn Lookin' for a shoulder to cry on, but tears only come out when I yawn Spark ions, my mind strong like Jake the Snake's right arm Had 'em choked up, came in the clutch with the pythons I'm ahead by miles when I write songs With a sense of right and wrong that's what I shed light on They scattered when I saw 'em I'm not rattled but I keep eye on the trap like there's mice on it These rats'll have a whole lot of lip but disregard Mysonne Don't dwell in the tower, more power to you like a pylon If you tackle the problems that pile on Pushing the line back'll put your goals within the pylon
