| Man I see days chasing days, everything stays the same
|
| No more night and day, everything is grey papier-maché
|
| Same song on the radio by the same old artist
|
| Same assholes on CNN giving the same «no comments»
|
| Same he say, she say shit
|
| Grab any given weekday and just put it on replay
|
| Ring, ring, rise and shine time to lie
|
| On the couch and watch TV 'til your eyes go blind
|
| Watch the guy in the Gucci suit talk about tryin' times
|
| And the guy that sold you the gun turn around fighting crime
|
| Days chasin' days, people make mistakes
|
| And don’t think solution, they look for somewhere to place the blame
|
| It’s Just Days Chasing Days — Everything stays the same
|
| Enemy’s names will change, but their deeds remain in place
|
| What are these arranged mistakes, but a link in the chains of fate
|
| With the singular basic aim to deplete us of age and strength
|
| You can flee or embrace this replay of the Deja scene in The Matrix
|
| But keeping beneath the blankets won’t stave off seeing the day shift
|
| So, instead of being evasive, I portray 'brave' and I face it
|
| As I watch in amazement, as these paid pricks do this lame shit
|
| And then trade shifts on the same staged hit, 'bout fame & dollars
|
| Niggas ain’t biting no more, they’re just claiming they’re paying homage
|
| I’m saying, God must be the illest producer
|
| He fills us with youth, but trims us out before we can hear where the sample
|
| loops up
|
| Sometimes it makes me wanna say «oh lord»
|
| Sometimes it makes me wanna shout «oh lord»
|
| Sometimes it makes me wanna scream «oh lord»
|
| I’m sick and tired of these days chasin' days
|
| Yo, Chords, man. |
| I really hope these days’ll catch up again
|
| Till then, I’ll gnash up the back of my pen, cause it acts as my last defense
|
| Of my head against these sad and tragic events
|
| That happen when history’s repeating itself, eating itself for the lack of an
|
| end
|
| And I’m tackling trends — It’s all misleading
|
| Just gimme 2 pair of my Adidas and we’ll call it even
|
| See, I’m not a mad rapper, I’m just frustrated
|
| To see ya profiting with something you ripped off and barely bothered to update
|
| it!
|
| So, fuck waiting another 10 years, till these twerps say
|
| That what I was doing a decade ago is the reason they rhyme in the first place
|
| Hah! |
| So in a worst-case scenario, I work with a smirked face
|
| And pervert breaks and assertively rape your stereo
|
| I see days chasin' days, everything stays the same
|
| I’ve seen Jesus become the patron saint of a paper chase
|
| I’ve seen wars justified by one verse of Amazing Grace
|
| I’ve been face to face with the devil in the most sacred place
|
| I’ve seen utopia for what it is; |
| a pipe dream
|
| I’ve seen murderous minds scheme turnin' the world to a crime scene
|
| Learnt that whether winter, spring, summer or fall
|
| Empires will plummet and fall to the ground and crumble apart
|
| So is it me or these Venetian blinds
|
| That keep my mind laggin' like a week behind
|
| Cause all this darkness is treatin' me like razorblades
|
| And it’s no light all I see are days chasin' days
|
| Sometimes it makes me wanna say «oh lord»
|
| Sometimes it makes me wanna shout «oh lord»
|
| Sometimes it makes me wanna scream «oh lord»
|
| I’m sick and tired of these days chasin' days |
