Lyrics
My life is all I have, fuck friends and foes, cause they'll both sit back and laugh
So I sit back, with this pen and this pad, and dream of all the good things I wish I had
I spark a blunt, when my struggles seem to get me sad, undergo a transformation, then im lookin all mad
Won't think twice about swingin some knuckles, at all them cats who sit backan jus laugh and chuckle
At my obstacles, my pain, and my strife, thats why I stay, high as kite, flyin through life
Got people who close tellin me to slow down, but it seems everyone is just runnin around
So Imma never be the one walkin, never be the one talkin, shit without just cause
I knew at my first christmas, they're wasnt no santa clause, sometimes these days I just stop and pause
And think of all the lies that've been fed since birth, Im full of em all thats why I choose to spit
And clense my soul of the impurities within, but Im still committin sins, that hurt my next of kin
Look at my eyes, look at my skin, hard and weathered at 17 years, askin myself, how can I win
At this game of life, it ain't something to play with, play it cool, or get rich, get rich and get sprayed quick
There's many a fork in the road, and its up to yourself to choose, hard to come out on top when the probability is lose-lose
Life ain't no different than rollin them dice, but its the only thing you have and it don't come around twice
So cherish and live up the only one you have, its kinda sad all I have is my flows and my pad
An then you got people talkin, they think Im thinkin they jealous, when I'm the one eatin on cold dogs with no buns or relish
As if all these troubles aint enough, I got the jakes wailin up, tryin to put me in cuffs
Tryin to charge me with some alch and weed charges, but they're a must
So for the five point oh, imma puff this next blunt, cause in my life, thats about all that I want
The law says drugs cloud and impair minds, but I dont hear, cause when im laced with this kind, the world comes into focus, helpin me see clear
An get in touch with the spirits, and jus know that they're near, and I know I'll be with em soon, So I got no reason to fear
Always sincere, at times when I lose sight, I realize, get back on track and find it
If not, I can find a past track and rewind it, and no longer am I blinded
Its like to live in this world, your born to a contract, don't have to sign it
Hold you to laws, brought by the egotistical, and control freak minded
And when it gets to be too much, you just gotta forget, twist somethin up, and wait for the freedom to hit
The peace to get, whether by gettin high, or releasin a spit
Since Im off my grind, im sittin here weeded, just flowin this shit
Cause its one life, and one love, and it seems all mine are just miss and not hit
So believe me, never will I leave this world peacfully
Im talkin to the lord and and he be helpin me see
All the fakes, and jakes that surround, all the guns all the blood that runs the streets downtown
My life is in dolby digital, surround sound, so I can hear foes creepin around
So Im just lacin this track, with adverbs and pronouns, at one time I was lost in life, but with the pen I've found
The one callin, the true meanin of life
To live it as you feel like, fuck the troubles and strife... its yours
