lyrics

intro:
“And Jesus prayed, that God’s name should be sanctified. And his kingdom shall come. And his will be done on Earth as it is done in heaven. So one of the purposes of that Millennium Jesus Christ is to SING”

We all struggle, we all go through it
Let me tell you about mine
The struggle in my head that’s in my life

Verse 1:
I breath in God, I exhale the devil
I’m hip-hop and jazz dipped in heavy metal
I got beliefs that cut priest to pieces
I make 12 apostles question Jesus
Now what’s my thesis, it’ll blow your brain up
To stuck in old tradition’s God damn y’all nigga’s been missing out
Bitching out, not letting your brain go, but I got the flow
How it go, I’m something like Biggie I’m unbelievable

I mean did you hear the flow? Shits impeccable

And I bet they can’t stand me
I’m getting props from Claremont to Miami
Gladly, will I pay fame to make change
And have y’all call me crazy maybe insane
But this is my brain and I control, your too weak to hold it
I’m like the clay that God molded
Yo Pac quoted that he wouldn’t be the change just influence the seed
Well I guess that seed grew up and became me, SUPREME

Chorus:
Dreams, we all have them
I hope you know they’re reachable, just gotta stretch and grab them
Ya, I know this life is hard but we gotta keep going
We’re tearing at the seams, I pray to God y’all keep sowing
‘Cuz we’re staring at the finish line
The sight is beautiful, I feel for you if your blind
But you can feel it on your skin, man the way it shine
Hold my hand, we’re almost there at the finish line
It’s almost time

You see that? Let’s go


Verse 2:
I wanna take you higher
I want to be your dreams, your release, your fire
Want us to teach the world, also to learn from it
Reach, to the stars go far, and then promote peace
My generation is like Greece, we’re geniuses we think
Ain’t no fear in our souls, we go, we don’t blink
Our grandmothers and grandpa’s we’re either hippies or panthers
They tried to burn that whole book but we’re bout to open that chapter
Now read
Ya, they plant the seed, and we f*ckin grew
Into the tree of life, we are the truth
I love my country man I swear to God I do
But sometimes it’s so hard to like you
Look at what you do to us, you put us in cuffs
Mother F*ckers we’re your children, you want us to bomb buildings
You refuse to listen you’re holding out
And instead of giving in you want us to blow our brains out
And yet still

Chorus 2:
You sit there and wonder why we pop pills
And why we’re hesitant to make a deal
America I thought your love was real
Now I see it in your eyes that your trying to
Kill us, Hurt us, Break us, Don’t trust us
Liars, Cheaters, You hate us, The strugglers
No

Monologue:
This world is so f*cked up man. Its like every time we turn around there’s something new that we gotta go through. It’s a constant struggle just being alive… If it’s not one thing, it’s another. But I’m beginning to see the beauty in all this. I’m starting to see that struggling is helping me to appreciate life more. It’s like what my boy Stakz told me. He said good things take time and the best things don’t come easy…and that’s the truth right there. I think life is like this because when you work hard for something and you scratch and claw to reach your goal and then you finally achieve it, it tastes that much sweeter. I think we were giving this world in this condition because whatever created us want us to work hard to fix it so that when we do we can really appreciate it. And I do believe that we can change the world and I don’t think we need to wait on some day of destruction and mass murder for us to achieve that goal. I just think that we all need to work together as one and focus on our similarities instead of focusing on our differences. But what the fuck do I know?
