Gravity |
I feel a weight thats pulling me down, |
But my reflex is to try to break out, |
Nature gives fight or flight syndrome, |
But my feet stay on the ground thats how Ive grown, |
Bred to resist the gravity of anything thats fucking with me, |
Survivalist instincts through my veins are pounding, |
Transfused at birth by my urban surroundings. |
Gravity wont allow me to fly, |
It pulls me down, the pain, I wont cry, |
Resistance and drive fueled by hunger, |
What doesnt kill me makes me stronger. |
I just cant let shit get to me, |
Got to reflect back on what pop taught me, |
To be your own man no matter what, |
To never back down, and follow your gut, |
Instinct, something he said that Id know, |
Something that Id carry wherever I go, |
He told me someday Id have to fight to be free, |
And resist the weight of gravity. |
Calloused hands wipe away tears, |
Of the pain of a man broken by years, |
A silent shot that nobody hears, |
A smoking gun of our own fears, |
My father worked all his life and for what, |
Day in, day out, caught in a rut, |
The pain of apathy, razor-sharp cutting, |
But Ill make sure he doesnt die for nothing. |
