You look in the mirror to try to change what isn`t there
Your inner demons are seeping and you get hella scared
Well aware, of the consequences and reprecussions
All this, bluffing and fussing has your head on a rush and
Have you ever felt your parents were against you instead
Of w/ you . . .
Rather than fighting, you`re crying, cussing yourself to sleep in bed
It`s hard I know, have you ever felt like the last one standing?
The last one demanding a hand in your future planning
Everybody else always has something to say
It`s something today, nothing the next
Then it`s back to fronting for pay
You`ve been hungry for days, you wish upon a falling star
To be what you want to be w/out changing who you are
Believe in a dream and you`ll acheive just look at me
Look and be, inspired to consieve a belief
In yourself, please retrieve your things, lead, and suceed
[Chorus]
Have you ever... Had these types of deep thoughts and
You`re tossing and turning w/ these burning questions in ya head
Images dipicted of better living, and reaching the pinacle
Whole world mentions you, but you`re the opposite of cynical
`Cause someone may think shit identical, just work your hardest
Whether you made it or want to make it. . .
. . . I know you`ve had these thoughts regardless. . . .
You ponder, about earth`s greatest creation, you wander
Into love, but shit breaks up and you think it`s karma
Every relationship in the past, hasn`t even made it passed
A great length, and you wonder when you`ll find that one at last
Have you ever asked why people can`t grasp the fact that
You`re trapped against a wall, back strapped, open to get clapped
Yep, you`re eyes on the streets again, and feet pretend
To feel something deep within but they leave again
Have you ever turned to weed again just to be your friend?
"It`s me again", that`s your conscience talking w/ no end
So you answer it, call it a fool, and keep doing what you`re doing
Not knowing that what you`re doing will lead you to ruin
Believe in the truth, shit, it may hurt, but it`s real
And fuck a card game man, you have enough to deal
With and sin`s rearing it`s ugly head, try to ignore it
But have you ever felt the need to by any means explore it?
[Chorus]
Have you ever felt alone, cold, and out of place
All your acquaintances have vanished w/out a trace
You`re left w/ names, unable to put them to a face
Life is a race, of 'Catch me if you can'. . . .
. . . And you`re behind pace in the chase
I know your struggling, often times stressed
But what`s best is to look for guidance in your chest
Follow your heart, never tear it apart, never give it a rest
`Cause in that period, you could catch one through your vest
Have you ever had the feeling of being there ?
Attempt to travel, but you battle backwards back to nowhere
Shackles provide the wear and tear, you think you shouldn`t care
But when that happens, you`ll get more than breeze from air
Just heed what I said, because what I`m helping you with
Is the same shit I been through - Times two kid. . .
Yeah, long, but one of my better ones, feedback appreciated.. leave links, and I`ll get to them. Pz.
