The Phoenix - E. Town Concrete

So I take another step, and one more breath

Closer to death.

there’s things going on in this

World that got me stressed.

lately I find myself

Searching my soul.

looking for signs of life

A warmth in the cold.

i’m young and restless

And they want me to fold.

i’m hard headed, I

Ain’t never did shit I was told.

I get too mad too

Fast over too much shit, but I put too much heart

Into the words I spit.

maybe i’m too proud

Maybe I scream too loud… but what goes in

Must come out.

and i’m hurting inside.

I can’t

Show it.

obstructed by pride.

I ain’t being hard I

Just don’t know why.

fuck tomorrow if I live or

I die.

who comes first?

you not before i.

i’m still

A ways off from my lofty goals, so fuck those

Who oppose and those who’s acting like ho’s.

I

Ain’t got time for ya’ll.

focus my goals.

I chose

C’mon now, you just write ryhmes… i recite lifelines

You’re in it for the long haul… i'm in it for a lifetime

Let a brother try to come between me and mine

I’ll lie cheat and steal to keep feeding mine.

that’s

The deal and that’s for real, by any means.

am I

Wrong because I want the finer things in life?

Hell no.

take this world by storm

All I ever wanted was a taste of.

all I ever wanted

Was a piece of what I could not have
