What?

All eyes.

Pay attention

Non-familiarity makes you scared to see

The beauty in front of your eyes

You’re thinkin' narrowly

Everything isn’t a predictable occurrence

If you’ve experienced everything except a purpose

Then you’ve missed everything that was meant to be caught

Life sessions aren’t lessons that can be simply taught

You gotta feel the matter

Build the data

You gotta strengthen self or your shield will shatter

In the field, we choose to scatter like mice

Instead of coming together and keeping it tight

It’s hard to be alone, deep in the night

I try to avoid the dark life and be seeking the light

But so many times I fall in between the lines

Of what is a devilish sign and what is divine

If you base your life on wasted nights with no faith in sight

You might as well freebase on pipes

I’ve fallen down but I got up friend

Fell twice

Three times

Got up again and again

And again, it’s nobodies but my fault it didn’t end

You only don’t win when you give in

The days we live in

Send shit that’ll break the strongest

I put on my body armor and remain the calmest

Being peaceful at heart helps me see through the dark

Like dogs barkin' it’s hard for evil people to start bullshit

With a literally cool kid whose only form of battlin' is through music

If you hold yourself tight you can’t lose it

Life or death, it’s up to you who you cruise with

Exercise knowledge to increase your wealth

If you know yourself you’ll be shown your wealth (x3)

Sometimes I ask myself a question

Is my lack of inner reflection

Some type of indication of what state my life is in?

They keep piping in elevator music

Sappy and happy as hell with foo foo shit

When I reflect back and recollect that

I was born into the state of walking slumber

Taught numbers, realize I’m dirt poor

It hurts more now that I’m older

Showered in water much colder than this

Holdin' my lips and close thee abyss

With the speech and the phoniest kiss

Rendered lifeless

Talk about an identity crisis

My third eye remains sightless

When the night hits

Can’t help but lie awake

Contemplate fights with vice grips

Depressions and lessons in starvation

It’s hard to be patient

Sittin' perfectly still, listen to your own heart racin'

Assume the description of my life and it’s reality

Is on the warm side of fatality

It’s not fair the way you challenge me

Or the silent way my talents be

Hidden inside these translations

Emancipation as I try to dab the slate clean

Futile attempts to make my fate glean

Hate seems all inclusive

It makes me want to fall reclusive

And rip the tallest loose-leaf

With a makeshift facelift

For my mental state

Huh check it out
