[Verse 1: Daze] They misusing cupid's arrow just to poke a nigga Striking fear in my heart, my vanes open nigga Saying Love's name in vain, they couldn't feel my pain Reminiscing feeling like a slave, I can feel my chains You see me walking down this dirt road, I'm escaping torture My head spinning so my mind like the wheel of fortune I'm rich and wise but not in pennies or the luxury My past is the armory holding me from my misery And even though it's killing me, I'm feeling myself The wealth of wisdom is artillery; I ask if I remember me I'm shooting blanks for every letter that's in hang man I'm tryna hold it down, this a lifetime full of handstands I know a couple things are hard to come by And you feel like they running from you like a combine But hold your head high and breathe above the water How you drowning if we draining out the sink of all your sorrow, nigga? [Hook: Erykah Badu] Time to save the world, beating the world is all the time So many things I still don't know, so many times I've changed my mind Guess I was born to make mistakes, but I ain't scared to take the weight So when I stumble off the path, I know my heart will guide me back [Verse 2: Daze] There was a point in time when I played the bad guy Breaking every heart that couldn't even shape my blood type The class clown nigga that fooled around for attention Like the boy that cried wolf, so soon they wouldn't listen to me I use joke about the rubies Acting like I was from the hood saying, "It Was Gucci," So a nigga would salute me But shoot me cause I rolling dice Putting my life in a gamble, in the hands of Uncle Samuel My niggas use to scramble like some eggs They didn't want to share that bunk bed Casket made for just one head Plus it covers up your legs, why you running from the dead I know some niggas that use to keep a pistol under their bed While they use to sleep at night Covers tucked; use to grip it tight For any nightmare that came to sight Now it's like, They tryna put they life in a composition No living legends; I hope you listen and get the message So pay attention or pay it forward [Outro: Erykah Badu] Ooh, hey I'm trying to decide Which way to go, think I made a wrong turn back there somewhere Ooh, hey, I'm trying to decide Which way to go, think I made a wrong turn back there somewhere

[Netsky - Hook](2x) Life's a circle No beginning Can't you show me how to break in? Comfort me with warm and tender love [Daze - Verse 1] You see the sand in the hour glass coming to an end Your enemies want to be your friends You want to cut the split ends out your hair Before they're in sync And there's a split personality like Siamese twins Before the sun burst you want a sun kiss So the sweet lips will carbonize the words that you could've missed Not every day is promised to you Not every line in this scripture is even spoken to you You heard of living legends, fairy tales, stories, folk tale and tall tale They're spoken with a glory You may see a body die, but know the spirit lives If you read the bible, then you believe that an Angel gives Protection for the one that it loved or the loving It never ended, so how could you stop caring It never started, there was no beginning It just faded to existence and I'm just reminiscing [Netsky - Hook](4x) [Daze - Verse 2] You see the good die young; they wana live the jet life Try to fly to heaven's gate when the pilot's Hell's wife The evil live on and you learn to fear contentment The crack of a smile your resenting You want to see the clouds walk the ground And the water fly the ceiling While Hell's teapot is boiling all your feelings Positive energy is being hyphenated While you surrender all the happiness that you confiscated But on the plus side; there ain't no plus side You were spared all the facts so you trust lies And you don't believe in trust funds They say wealth buys happiness so tell me where you buy some But I'm wealthy in my mind for the knowledge Would I sell it to the devil for a life of happy hours Save yourself and honor your happy sentence While I recollect and vision all my thoughts I'm reminiscing [Netsky - Hook](6x)

[Intro] Stand up Detroit; This for you. Look [Verse 1] They couldn't fade my pedigree So let it be just me, myself, and I in your memory Remember Me I want the key for free of entering the city I ain't put it on the map but I kept the rep with me Step with me I started when running when my white socks stepped in the sand box To all my A1's that ain't blood, know we close like a tampon Been the people's voice and vision; I got'em, it's hands on Drew a path for them to walk, I did it in crayon I'm not tryna resemble a supernatural figure I'm just taking some pictures and zooming in on the pixels I'm directing my life; there's no dirt on my lenses I know a genie with wishes who see the riches and Benz-es And I hope he see a future in my city If they ain't with me, then get with me Or get lost and go fishing I'm done playing The rounds up, the games ending I just see my life in a flash, guess I'm done spending [Spoken Word] yeah, but here goes nothin' [Verse 2] I use to walk in the valley of death Chip on my shoulder Shadow holdin' my breath I wanted more - could only settle for less I watched my people at rest Getting they best foot ahead before they settled in bed (Yeah) Thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death You couldn't earn an ounce of any respect They faulted your rep Your still a hypocrit just for killing your kind One of a kind killed another and they thought it was fine When the white seen the black man was b'coming supreme They edit all of your scenes, trashed your vision and deleted your dreams Now I wonder why these walls talk They tell stories of blood, bruised or broken, Some buried in mud And you ask why it's the people I love They weren't made perfect Angels but they came from above And I ain't talkin' the stork I'm talkin' birds and the bees Respect your mother - she the one who had to carry your seed Cause most people won't protect the blood that came from they home If it didn't bleed on the flag, it ain't one of their own If it ain't doing cell division, it's not one of their clones They left the beef to a beast, for a pick of the bone [Spoken Word] At least you tried, nigga [Verse 3] I'm waging war with the devil On seven different levels To make a bond with the heavens That we all go somewhere separate When separating my soul from the spirit I hope you hear it I'm clearing a path for guidance Now tell me who angel flying above me I guess we all get lucky If you weigh your prayers and sins, I guess we all get wealthy We were promised change but change didn't change me a bit See, I paid the price for living and now I'm paying for rent But forgive me if I'm out of control The blacker it burns, I worry just to put a lil smoke in my lungs And probably put a hole in nose; praise my family My ancestor's casualty The royalty it flatters me With diamonds and pearls, the rubies and emeralds The sand of the Kenyan desert, the water of from holy Shepard's And someone write an end to this script before it bothers me Put matter in my own hands; I'm taken out the batteries [Spoken Word] Life ain't to long [Outro] **Ray Lewis "Respect" Speech**

[Intro] This for you … [Bridge] Loving you ain't complicated What do I got to do to get to you Loving you ain't complicated What do I got to do to get to you (Look) [Verse] I painted pictures of your every word I captured every breath you ever took Because I'm speechless every time I look in your eyes So I use it to re-oxidize My love for you has many blurred lines It's like the picture that I'm drawing has some tears on it My heart cries time you lay your ears on it I can't gather all my thoughts every time I think of you You keep running through my mind, But I ain't tired of it (Loving you ain't complicated, I mean) You see all the love we had has been confiscated Now wonder you still show me hatred I gave you your best days and your worst days Your best times and your worst times Your best ride for a short skate; I hope the rail last forever In the heat of the moment the love mixes better But when it's cold, it turns to frost bite There's been a couple days we had where we don't even speak at night And with love being complicated Loving you has its complications I know the love that I show you, sometimes you hate it But other times, I'm so thankful And im glad we made it [Hook] And loving you ain't complicated Loving you ain't so complicated This love can't be complicated Nah, love can't be complicated [Outro] Through the miscommunications and complications This trial wasn't safe but sacred, I'm so glad we made it. We faced enemies of mood, feelings, and mental problems But the physical appearance of you didn't stop me While my heart gets the oil, my mind gets the match, It sets love a blurr; Creating fog, not letting you know what occurs next.

[Pre-Hook] [Verse: Daze] The way you got me feeling I'm losing way with my senses I started seeing the ending before I seen the beginning My whole world belittled like crush pebbles It need spice like red peppers Got it shipped from the sun devil I use to wana rock a chain with a load of diamonds Think I'm shining Louie V on me, Hot as Florida's Climate And now I'm coolin' in my backyard Tryna find my black card, So I can leave with my black marks They say I'm losing my mind but I found yours Here's a penny for your thought, that's a credit charge See your life in a flash, and you can't take a charge It'll put shots in your glass and you ain't gettin' boards I know some niggas that are dreams killers They'll wake you up and never let you sleep, so you can't get it My momma always said my haters would be close by And my friends usually be the ones I can call at night If I'm losing my mind, collect the puzzle pieces If I'm wasting my time, I hope the sand releases All faith left in my soul, Absolute Zero Kryptonite to Superman; talking for a fallen hero There's not to many niggas tryna help you out The government is plottin' and they tryna take us out My mind on my money and my money on my mind That's a Siamese twin when my mind intertwined [Pre-Hook] [Verse: Quan] All this time I been wasting, could be use for these dreams, I been chasing Its like my mind tell me one thing and my body does the other when I was younger,I was that nigga with nikes on his feet, running through the streets late night mama telling me to be home before the streetlights mama staying up late nights, to make sure we had food at night make sure we wasnt cold at night, to make sure we was tucked in tight But its crazy now, cause im older im grown I be on my own gotta get how you live, gotta stack this paper Gotta make a way on your own its okay if you all alone, not everybody gonna believe in you not everybody gonna agree with you The hardest thing now a days, is tryna find a girl that wanna be with you a girl that will bleed you lay down be by your side til end with you But thats very rare thats one in million bitches will be with you until they see another with a gold a chain with no goals, with his hat backwards, with pants sagging But im grown now, I be on my own I be all alone, with my thoughts [Pre-Hook]

The sinister of dreams or dream catchers The mind is a place where we store dreams after you sleep Ka-peesh? We don't make a peep if they achieving the scene and still stacking the green I'll take you farther than a train off the rail in Alaska Headed down a hill, to Toronto like a Raptor Sliding thru a couple cross roads like a pastor Just to be shot in a whole like the masters Or buried alive They couldn't kill me if they chained my soul And tried to drag it from hell to the sky I've been ready to die You see the fire grow brighter every time you wink in eyes I'll take you far on a flight [Yael Naim - Hook](2x) [Yael Naim - Bridge/Outro] This is a happy end Come and give me your hand I'll take you far away
