Love. Pain. Scars. Kisses. Family. Friends
Enemies. Presents. Bullets. Weapons
It’s all harmonic. It’s all a part of life
The feeling of being around fam and the warmth of Christmas
Children’s laughter when they rush to open up the presents
When I’m having hard times, this is what I remember
The memories I cherish. Even in November
Playing in the leaves that fell from the trees
Cause overseas they be going through it
No food, no water, this is more than music
Alien intrusion. Fallen angels in chains beneath the sewer
I sip hot chocolate topped with cool whip
Reminisce of how I felt when I caught my new whip
Like how fly can I get till it breaks down and got to get fixed
My hypothesis? This ain’t the apocalypse kid
I keep it moving, trying to make wise choices
And separate the word of God from those other voices
Bad times sometimes can feel like food poisoning
My names written in the book of life among the anointed
So in my mind I’m seeing better days
Cause in the end of days I’m moving like a renegade
And in this escapade I’m seeing people dying from vapes
Chased by jakes, the same face and mug shots they took yesterday
And every day I see a reason to smile
Pop a bottle and pop a throttle is my bravado
And I’m not a child, still my nicknames The Exile Child
And I’ll show you how I feel as the beat drops now. Come on
We only live one life. Under the sunlight
The temperatures rise rise rise
I’m trapped in this gun fight. Sirens ring all night
I was born in this war war war
We only live one life. Under the sunlight
The temperatures rise rise rise
We only life one life
I thought of Ghost Face picking roaches out of Corn Flakes
Sunlight graced my face waiting at the bus stop
Watching homeless people eating out the trash and whatnot
Thankful for what I got. A couple friends caught head shots
I looked into the casket knowing soon we’ll spread their ashes
The Lewis died and Ordly died then uncle LeRoy passes
That’s why my parents told me go to school and get my masters
But ain’t want no boss like Kunta Kinte had a master
Imagine good without bad, sad without joy
Imagine criminals without cops we purging, oh boy
But it’s the same thing cause boys in blue killed George Floyd
I’m just waiting for this planet to crash with an asteroid
And now it’s life and death and I detect these the last days
Kind of feels like it’s a movie watching Billy Bath gate
And I’m straight. I got friends and fam that really love me
And I got fans around the world that really bump me. Trust me
Cause every rhyme I write put my heart in it
Ain’t no bone in my tongue that’s how my grandmother said it
Sometimes I feel like Will Smith cause I Am Legend
Walking on the road to Zion as I should have mentioned
We only live one life. Under the sunlight
The temperatures rise rise rise
I’m trapped in this gun fight. Sirens ring all night
I was born in this war war war
We only live one life. Under the sunlight
The temperatures rise rise rise
We only life one life
