Story behind the song
I've had some real messed up shit happening lately, so I just decided to sit down and write to get out my pent up frustrations.
Lyrics
Hook: I’m here to set the record straight, because hate against hate begets hate, and nothing’s done/ I’m here to set the record straight, because every 12 seconds a rape occurs in the appearance of love/ I’m here to set the record straight, because somewhere in the world someone was just shot/ (1x) This is it…my whole life becomes apparent to me/ Noting is forever I’ve noticed now this path is chosen hope my parents love me/ Cause I’m seeking the end of the show the curtains closes/ Suppose I keep rappin until my thirst is frozen/ Open portraits into closets my skeletons haunted me till my focus is/ Lost the meaning of a purpose/ Note this ebbing in my throat as life begins to look more worthless…/ And I take one last step in the dark…/ Waiting for this weapon to spark-a lost heart/ Dead start, pause to grieve it’s over…/ Hate begins again as soon as done, we need his shoulder/ Cry to try and stop the tears run dry I’ve shed my last drop in a laugh/ Now I’m done, crossed off the light in the path/ And now I’m dyin to grab my last chance/ To see the golden flask, we clasp hands/ Taste the glass, my last stand/ Sacred task, and ask man…/ What is my reason for being and why you hurtin me/ Hold one love for your dreams and everything you deserve will be/ Fuck that! I’m tryin to move on this is too slow/ Why would you ask a question whose answer you already know? / Take my advice-Go back to life and put death aside a second/ But that’s who I am… That’s your infected side, respect it/ So you telling me life is the answer to this whole yearning? No, I’m telling you many paths reside inside of a soul journey/ That’s why you gotta keep on burning this page with rage/ And hate against hypocrisy/ And anytime you feel like you wanna give up, Come talk to me… Hook (1x) And I hope you’re not./ But I’m here to set the record straight so maybe I can sleep at night I doubt it/ It’s worth a try although I think we live to lie about it/ Siphon sound ignited slightly bloated in its moral standard/ Close a fist and hit you in the face just to say that it was open handed/ So we stand and fight it’s like this life I live ain’t mine/ To give away but take it if I must I think I’d like to end today/ So I bust, it’s over now and nine months later I’m back again/ And they wrote down-This time as a poster child-Golden task repent/ Hook (2x)
