Just Another Day

The only things guaranteed in live is death, trouble, & taxes

Only way you'll succeed in life is to step up & then grab it

With everyday that passes I learn my lessons from actions that led to being mistakes

Yet I never regret my past. & I know, yeah I know some niggas envy my position

I keep hearing these rumors, but they tell me not to listen

I keep having these nightmares, but they help me write these lyrics

And it's so deep from the soul she said she felt me by a spirit

Mother, dear mother, far to many of you crying

Brother, dear brother, far to many of you dying

They tryna hold me back, but naw I'll never stop trying

To steer my people away from the ignorance & violence

I'm sick of living through the week with a frown

And I hate that it's our own people that's keeping us down

But I never let them take away my reason to smile

Death is lurking through my city, & it's creepin' around

I'm prepared for when it reaches me

So I'm studying the bible & I'm utilizing everything it teaches me

Practice what I preach, I never follow from the tv screen

They say have faith in god, but I just hope he believes in me

And I'm just looking for acceptance, jesus didn't run when everybody turned against him

Judas showed his jealousy & broke apart the friendship, betrayal, the lord will take his vengeance

I just wish my people would understand the reason why I wrote this

But you probably just like the beat & you didn't really notice

I'm trying to spill my soul out in hopes that you can feel me

I'm trying to change the world & save a life before they kill me

And I pray that I make it to my 18th birthday

Not the type to spit a bunch of metaphor's & worldplay

I speak from the heart, write about the shit that matters

To be honest, I'm not really any emcee or a rapper

I'm just a regular kid putting words over beats

And my soul is ablinded with the urge to be free

Be you, stay positive & follow your dream

Just make sure that you can trust the cats thats part of your team

Cause jealousy runs deep within the blood of a coward

And they'll say that your his brother but he's gonna turn sour

When he sees your success & progession

But just keep moving along & never question your blessings

And I ain't scared to fall. Naw, I've hit the bottom before

I remember sleeping my niggas Honda Acurd

We get sick of dealing with all the problems of course

Everytime I try to ignore, shit I thought of it more

But that's just another day I stay content with the sour

So I'll bow my head & pray for a better tomorrow

Yeah, it's just another day, I stay content with the sour

So I'll bow my head & I'll pray for a better tomorrow
