This life is love this life is God this life is no regrets | |
This life is pain this life is work this life is blood and sweat | |
God told me it’d take blood sweat and tears | |
Trying to live that rap life, let me buzz debt and fears | |
Strange people start to hate, success coming near | |
It’s a shame when we’re stressed, and possessed by our fear (uh) | |
See it clear through the man in the mirror | |
Trying to make a change for everyone, not make them feel inferior | |
Cause I don’t know if we can help or not | |
But I can smell the shot on the corner even before the shell could drop | |
Guess you gotta let your metal pop, while we watching every felon walk cause nobody ever tells the cops | |
Seldom caught so they’re always selling rock | |
“Do we live in a melting pot?” is like asking if Hell is hot | |
Yeah we’re compelled to stop, taking L's and getting locked | |
Cause we understand the system, but just can’t connect the dots | |
Other people divided in the pigments of a fragment nation | |
I’m just a voice, a figment of your imagination | |
It’s your choice, be different and find your aspiration | |
Instead of being a full trick by fascination | |
Train of thought, get on track, now we leave the station | |
Goal for 2012, better conversation | |
Between nations so they can make reparations | |
Politicians never did live up to my expectations | |
Feeling gifted ‘cause music is more than recreation | |
Trying to manage my business between these celebrations | |
Our invention is intuition and innovation | |
I saw this vision in my head and now I’m on the stage | |
I wrote this wisdom so we can carry on through the ages | |
Still they always used to judge me by my age | |
It’s a shame we ain’t aware of our saviors | |
Some stay blind from the womb to the grave | |
So keep these rhymes in the tomb of the ancients | |
And no matter what happens, keep the faith | |
‘Cause one day we gonna learn to save the planet, God | |
My kids will learn to fly to outerspace | |
‘Cause they keep you trapped inside metal cages | |
So take these bars, break them down, and we’ll escape | |
And if the evils make you start to hate your peoples | |
Just remember God is love and you’ll be safe |
This life is love this life is God this life is no regrets | |
This life is pain this life is work this life is blood and sweat | |
God told me it' d take blood sweat and tears | |
Trying to live that rap life, let me buzz debt and fears | |
