lyrics

V1
Even though i messing up, i'm still on my grind
i got mad visions in my head that circles round in my mind
relax recline and think about how im gone do it in time
ya know the house the car the kids and hopes a doing alright
awake at night cos its the time for deep reflection in sight
i see the life that could be possible if i just use all my might
this life's a fight but like a contender im here to win it
made mistakes but picked it up, thats why im always grinning
Because..i see the light, like women on her death bed
gasping for some air tryna pull myself through this mess
messy life and bare stress, people talking names shit
what they gonna do for you when government got bare heads
watching you and clocking you just waiting for the right time
always use my right mind, so conscious good at night time
its all designed to incline, the rich stay rich while poor fight
fighting just to live, fighting still just for a fair life

Chorus
In every country theres people
millions of people, the government survives through tax from the people
i only wanna live my life for the people, wanna bring smiles
sing songs for the people
Cos that is all we have left, that is all we have left, that is all we have left..

Every time i use my mind, Life is what i'm exploring
Things will come together in time
if i just use my brain and think!
i would give anything, if you could only understand me
i don't give a damn about nothing else
Progression is all i see

V2 ( EMCEE KILLA)

I sing a song for the colony,
sorrow self pity, good and bad thoughts will follow me
the scares run deep cant get enough sleep
authority will judge a man when he just speaks
when i appear i sketch out all ya smear attempts
never fear my friend i got your back until where near he end
and thats what love can do
it gives ya something new
full use of the heart when you hunt for truth
short fuse, tryna laugh cry like onions
to real to be addressed by assumption
so what you wanna do! ah
i just wanna sit in this town called malice
and turn every mans house into every mans palace
this planets and atrocity
plagued by monopoly
in my world id stamp don white collar robbery
and fight for the proper peace seeking believers
astrology remains the same in each sequence

Chorus
