Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look, I'm posin' a question
How many been empty and holdin' aggression?
Close to depression
Open your eyes and just focus a second
Fuck a recession, my brother
My mind is my weapon, I'm letting it go
Loading and pointing at negative energy
Telling me stop, they telling me no, don't
Your aura is something you ain't even sure of
Explore the core of California whore got more to snort up
I've had a smorgasbord of pornographic thought
That's a lot, the feeling come after the shock
Praise me, I'd rather you not 'cause
It's driving me crazy the fact that you pay me. amaze me. it's something I love
You come to club searching for drugs, drunk fuck these sluts
God loves me, what if he does? What does it mean?
You wasting away doing nothing, you fronting
Why aren't you chasing your dreams?
We wonder 'bout life, but none of us willing to learn
The money we earn is something to burn
Why won't they give me a turn? I'll
Feed the hungry and clothe the naked
You mistaken
The world is cold and it's lonely ain't it?
When them high rollers homes in Vegas
Raided with some home invasion
Contaminating the place with plague
We just saved the day
[Verse 2]
I waste away in a room spitting these raps
Yaweh put the world in my hands
I'm giving it back, yeah
[Verse 3]
It's a gift, our time to be alive
No earthly vehicle can contain this drive
It's a gift, our time to be alive
No earthly vehicle can contain this drive
[Verse 4]
Forfeiting the war, he lays his sword down and walks away
Grabs a forty from the corner store, begins to contemplate
Dealing with death like he work in the morgue
Absorbing the souls forgotten, he lost his way
Staring down that barrel, thinking not today
Life's so precious, Lord knows that life is so precious
Fight 'til the death 'til there's nobody left
And you hold in your breath 'cause you might get infected
I'm animalistic
Instinctively thinking of getting ballistic
Be specific, to those in control, we all statistics
Misogynistic with a twisted mind, I'm intertwined
My trigger finger itching, all I kill is time
Initial symptoms of schizophrenic behavior
The mind is like religion, can't agree on who's its Savior
The newest flavor of superhero, I'm shooting lasers
'Cept I'm cool with Vader and blowing up rooms that's full of strangers
A news anchor the youth can relate to, it's nature
If you a hater I'll deal with you later
No, thank you
I'm just your neighbor, please don't do me no favors
Really though, come on, homie, we major
[Verse 5]
I waste away in this room spitting out raps
Yaweh put the world in my hands
I'm giving it back
[Verse 6]
It's a gift, our time to be alive
No earthly vehicle can contain this drive
It's a gift, our time to be alive
No earthly vehicle can contain this drive
[Verse 7]
It's just a different time, man
It's just a different time
There was a time
When we showed love
You know like how we
Approach a young lady
You see a beautiful young lady you like
You say, damn, man
You're gorgeous
I'll take off my coat right now and
Lay it down on a puddle and
Make sure you don't miss a step
You know what I'm talking 'bout, young man?
See all these bitches and hoes?
Bots
I just don't understand
I don't know what's to come of you, young man
