lyrics

Ugh….Its hard to be positive
Venting on the track as I author it
Tryna find meaning, tryna find healing
Tryna stay up amongst all of this
Choas another loss you wanna quit
Escape like you smoke a marijuana stick
Hate self so you down an alcoholic drink
A lotta stress over media and politics
Got us all sick but we conscious
I guess the more we know the more problems
I guess the more we know the less options
Or so it feels like, I’m soundin’ heartless
A little hopeless like I’ma fall quick
Into a box where they keep them dreams locked in
Gotta stay standin’ gotta take chances
Remind self that this life is a great challenge
It takes love, takes hope, its takes practice
Disicipline in everything stay balanced
Lessons I’ve learned, I’m tryna stay at it
Produce action cause that is where great happens

If tomorrow comes then I know
I was meant to be here
If tomorrow comes and I’m gone
Then I hope I gave my all

Sometimes its hard to see the visual
See the truth beyond the sole individual
And the cards that life is still giving you
You give a lot but you get no recipricol
Thats the way it is they say that life kid
Like its normal like we used to all this violence
Another one gone another minus
Another number that they mark on that die list
Used to death but don’t know what life is
Or what a smile is, we in a crisis
Pacified and distracted to buy this
Buy that to achieve a kind of flyness
Thats artofficial temporary at best
Consume you a fool that what the devils expect
So I’m writin this letter to self or whoever
To remember when its hard that you better than this
…And I’ll sing song, maybe Redemption Song
Maybe Lauryn Hill or Nina Simone
Gotta be strong and gotta find purpose
Keep life movin on and stay learnin

If tomorrow comes then I know
I was meant to be here
If tomorrow comes and I’m gone
Then I hope I gave my all
