Shawyt:
I always question my creation we born to die/ It ain't about me no more cause I multiplied/ Wanna play me dirty you can always try/ Tattoos on my body show ya how I ride/ Life is poison taught me nothing but pain/ Ain't nothing getting washed away by the rain/ If it ain't the same than it's only getting worse/ No longer about me my seeds come first/ I ain't no thug cause I rap what you thinking of me/ Been myself since day one that's all I can be/ I'm from the streets where concrete was only a hope/ True to my religion fuck the pussy ass pope/ My vision is like a telescope steady clean like a bar of soap/ You betta take notes these quotes will have ya thinking/ Can only take so much that's why we drinking/ Sending this alcohol through the veins/ That only freeze the brain/ That's how we go insane/ So where's the fun in the game/
Hook:
Modern day heroes we are the ones that shine like a star. Modern Day Heroes.. we are the ones everyone looks up to but we never get far.
Shawyt:
Can't sleep at night my soul is hunted/ I hear voices calling my name/ I don't ignore it yet confront it/ Hell is calling me you bitches betta run it/ This is me putting everything on it/ There be no fear but I feel I'm in too deep/ Wouldn't be surprised if I'd die in my sleep/ All these dreams is a scheme/ Nobody hears me when I scream/ So I predict no mercy/ Casualties like temperature rising/ Haters wanting to murda me/ But that never be surprising/ The mind is the crisis/ Everyday life is a threat/ Running through it against rookies and vets/ Don't really care about what you know/ How long you been in the game unless you able to show/ That the mind is right if not then I don't wanna hear it/ Speak the words that'll reach my spirit/ Forget excuses cause I ain't with it/ You betta get it right/ Shawyt.../ Shining through the night/

Poetic Flow:
Alcoholic tendencies have me sitting on my knees ~ drowning in these resented seas filled with poisonous ideas/ Destroying my inner being ~ staring at the twisting ceiling ~ feeling tormented ~ closing my eyes withheld from the gift of seeing/ Formulating my strong opinions to the people that can’t feel this ~ spewing my ideas but can’t remember where my drink is ~ always lost in this painful abyss that embraces my creation/ An uncertain destination as I keep waiting for your donation at the “Get my fucking money back” foundation/ Releasing these scriptures to the innocent people ~ teaching these bitches saving them from intended evil/ Painful upheaval have you shook ~ look ~ examine the roads you took and remain yourself/ Educate your brain ~ take those books from the shelf and restrain away from the pain/ Didn’t you know that blood stains ~ an invisible chain holding back your future reducing you to zeroes/ You got to wizen up before you end up as your modern day heroes/
Hook:
Modern Day Heroes.. we are the ones everyone looks up to but we never get far.
