Just Another Day |
| The only things guaranteed in live is death, trouble, & taxes |
| Only way you’ll succeed in life is to step up & then grab it |
| With everyday that passes I learn my lessons from actions that led to being |
| mistakes |
| Yet I never regret my past. |
| & I know, yeah I know some niggas envy my position |
| I keep hearing these rumors, but they tell me not to listen |
| I keep having these nightmares, but they help me write these lyrics |
| & it’s so deep from the soul she said she felt me by a spirit |
| Mother, dear mother, far to many of you crying |
| Brother, dear brother, far to many of you dying |
| They tryna hold me back, but naw I’ll never stop trying |
| To steer my people away from the ignorance & violence |
| I’m sick of living through the week with a frown |
| & I hate that it’s our own people that’s keeping us down |
| But I never let them take away my reason to smile |
| Death is lurking through my city, & it’s creepin' around |
| I’m prepared for when it reaches me |
| So I’m studying the bible & I’m utilizing everything it teaches me |
| Practice what I preach, I never follow from the tv screen |
| They say have faith in god, but I just hope he believes in me |
| & I’m just looking for acceptance, jesus didn’t run when everybody turned |
| against him |
| Judas showed his jealousy & broke apart the friendship, betrayal, |
| the lord will take his vengeance |
| I just wish my people would understand the reason why I wrote this |
| But you probably just like the beat & you didn’t really notice |
| I’m trying to spill my soul out in hopes that you can feel me |
| Im trying to change the world & save a life before they kill me |
| & I pray that I make it to my 18th birthday |
| Not the type to spit a bunch of metaphor’s & worldplay |
| I speak from the heart, write about the shit that matters |
| To be honest, Im not really any emcee or a rapper |
| Im just a regular kid putting words over beats |
| & my soul is ablinded with the urge to be free |
| Be you, stay positive & follow your dream |
| Just make sure that you can trust the cats thats part of your team |
| Cause jealousy runs deep within the blood of a coward |
| & they’ll say that your his brother but he’s gonna turn sour |
| When he sees your success & progession |
| But just keep moving along & never question your blessings |
| & I ain’t scared to fall. |
| Naw, I’ve hit the bottom before |
| I remember sleeping my niggas Honda Acurd |
| We get sick of dealing with all the problems of course |
| Everytime I try to ignore, shit I thought of it more |
| But that’s just another day I stay content with the sour |
| So I’ll bow my head & pray for a better tomorrow |
| Yeah, it’s just another day, I stay content with the sour |
| So I’ll bow my head & I’ll pray for a better tomorrow |
