I live everyday like it's my last
n' Pray the past will pass so I can live,
I've tried to give, my soul to this
But my mind drifts sometimes
Can't focus it,
Frozen, barely open, emotionless
Catchin' flack for lack of desire..
.. Don't you know who wrote you this ?
I'm broken, it's
Hard to piece together this puzzle
When people who said they love you
Just mumble n' cause nothin' but trouble,
Why should I struggle to write ?
I lay w/ the pen tight n' pad close
Coupled up @ night,
See - everybody wants a million dollar contract
But once you sell yourself
You gone want your heart back,
Vision's unclear, blurred w/ contacts
Made the decision to lie
When they preferred you hon-est,
Unless - you change n' rearrange
Your reasons for wantin'
To be in the game,
Tell all my fans the same,
Just keep lovin' me
The way I love you lovin' me,
N' we can exchange love for free, see
It's a fine line you ride
W/ things on both sides
You gotta finally decide
Whether to ride or die,
Hide n' cry - tears
Reminiscent of your early years,
Dukes said you was out of it
To you, they was unworldly peers,
So every drop of water you shed
Mirrors when you bled,
N' w/ that said,
People see your face now,
Give respect to that head,
You started out young n' dumb,
Certain type of camoflauge
Dressed up all you want but
Couldn't hide the cameras scar,
After all,
You weren't the prototype,
n' yeah they were jealous
Shows solo some nights,
Cuz they hate to share the spotlight
'Cause when the spot's rocked right
N' it won't them who done it
They'll say you blockin' in the cock fight,
Just keep pushin'
Respect, Paid in Full,
From your predecessors
They'll aid your pull,
Don't fade to fool,
Stay a soldier
March n' grow older
Though the dark may roll closer,
You can't fold, n' post up
Expectin' a hand out,
'Cause that's not what
Bein' a man's about,
No one has they hands out,
Stand proud, don't back down
Don't crack now,
Cuz i've seen you in the act, wild
Too crazy w/ your lines
Paintin' pictures verbally,
Writtens refering to pleas
They not hurtin'you B,
'Cause you bein' bad's the hyperbole,
You've said "Music means the world to me,"
You got a girl, I see
So now you provide for a family,
From now to when death's over horizons
You can keep strivin'
They'll admire it,
Trust - they'll hear you
After retirement,
Solitary confinement,
You can be stuck inside it
But the sound waves can pound graves
N' ground slaves for nights if..
.. They feel the passion,
Christs actually packed in
Your actions n' motions of attackin'
Oceans only half bent,
Parted seas, pardon me
Pardon you,
You saved yourself from hardened blues,
Growing up you hardly knew,
What road that was laid before you,
Nobody can ignore you, deplore you
Or even whore you,
They're on your time,
That's right, live life,
They watched you grow up,
Now it's time to show up n'show um,
That you can move
Even w/ the world's weight on ya shoulders,
So beautiful,
Experience new things
Max out life to the fullest
N' realize what YOU bring..
[Chorus X's 2 - First 5 Lines Sung]
These are the days of our lives,
You only got one to live
So live it right,
This is the time, this was a rhyme
To open eyes..
It's All On You..
yeahh, first 5 lines sung by one of my girlies.. it'll be a nice audio, so cheah.
