A new song... about life and current situations we're facing. The beat is by Amplifya from mp3.com
Lyrics
I feel like I'm boxed in a cage/ just me and my rage/
but we ain't alone, we in the center of a stage/
and the whole world's watching/
chanting and taunting/ while the tick-tock of the clock/ got me where I do not/
wanna be/ honestly on the the thin line/ between reality and losing my damn mind/
rewind/ back a few years/ before the tears/
a long while/ when I was a child/ and it wasn't so hard to smile/
I could run wild for miles/
I was care-free/ always had somebody taking care of me/
holding me/ huggin' me/ loving me/
tellin me it's gonna be alright/ i could sleep peaceful at night/
and even take a pee/ coz my mommy always cleaned the sheets/
but now when I get pissed off or pissed on/ nobody cradles me/ nothing to stable me/
I guess that's why they say ignorance is bliss/ I was oblivious/ to this/
cold slap in the face/ like a swift kick to the crotch that gives a stomach ache/
it's life, it's love, it's hate/ no room for debate/
Life doesn't always dish you/ what you want it to/
So whatchu gone a do?
Give up/ Or raise up/
Live it up/ Or let it live you/
It's all up to you/
This is your Life/ your life your life your life/
Life doesn't always dish you/ what you want it to/
So whatchu gone a do?
Give up/ Or raise up/
Live it up/ Or let it live you/
It's all up to you/
This is your Life/ your life your life your life/
So u take the reighns/
U take away the pain/
You just a small link in the chain/
The devils fall can make u ink away your name/
wink, and it all can change/
This is your Life/ your life your life your life/
It ain't all peaches and cream/
These leeches'll eat up your dreams/
And suck you dry before one tear can leave your eye/ so let us not deny/
the fact that the past is never coming back/
like Michael Jackson/ his skin is never turn back to black again/
like 2Pac and Biggie they'll never rap again/
so let's not pretend/ let's make ammends/
and mend these present situations we're facing as a nation/
going to war, coz these cocky caucasians/
are playing with military administration/ they name-placing/
and pointing blame/ playing with lives like it's a game of playstation/
invading and dropping bombs/ like vietnam/ but now it's sadam/
and bin ladens/ been laughing... for so long/ i can't imagine/
how they can put a man on moon/ but can't can't catch some 6 foot 4 cowardly goon/
hiding in caves and put him into a tomb/
And rather then be scared/ the world just watches Joe Millionaire/
and gets drunk and ripped/ click click/
watching other peoples lives on box coz theirs has gone to shit/ this is it/ this is ridiculous/
Life doesn't always dish you/ what you want it to/
So whatchu gone a do?
Give up/ Or raise up/
Live it up/ Or let it live you/
It's all up to you/
This is your Life/ your life your life your life/
Verse 3:
So this is your life/ it ain't always nice/
it's like a hand of dice/ you gotta roll once or twice/ thrice/ till u get it right/
it's kinda like a mic/
you only get what you put in/ so you better plug it in/
and begin your own song/ just level the rights with the wrongs/
fight when you're you strong/ and fight when you're weak/
coz you'll never hit your peak/
sleepin in the valley/ it's like a ralley/
a race/ and only you can set the pace/
the world's full of give and take/ life is a cake/
so whether you wanna taste/ or shove the the whole thing is face/
it up to you, it's your own decision/ but life is worth living/
your own brain is like chains, holding u back like prison/
you just need a reason/ or something to believe/
winter to spring, like the chaning of the seasons/
you're only alive if you're breathing/ and you can only die if you're bleeding to death/
of missing a breath/ and me, I got a heart in my chest/ I was blessed/ so IM here to do my best till my last days/
Coz I'd rather go out with a name than fade away/
