Instrumental is They Reminisce Over You by Pete Rock & CL Smooth.
Much love, stay up world.

Lyrics:
Verse 1
I grew up in the veins of my name,
Exchange my last dollars, now im waiting for change.
I understood the struggle before the night came.
Stuck in the sun rays, strut in the one way,
Wonder why the gun play, came on a Sunday,
Stayed over night, and even welcomed in Monday
Like the sun died, raisins, or moonshine
Took hold of my pride on a joy ride.
And I figured it was something incredible.
And sellable, that every person had to get em edible.
It wasnt really the fact of matter. In fact the lack of matter.
That stacked the ladder.
And little kids on the porch, with a torch of the night,
With a floor, and a mic, and I know we all right.
Holding you right, cuz Im home when I write.
Tonights to light the path that lines my eyesight.
So if you really feel my rhyme going off the wall,
Trap my vocal, and cement it in the dry wall.
I think you better off watchin your stock fall,
Came back home, in time for your downfall.
I battle dues when Im over payin sets.
And the rain check aint quite rained on yet.
Gave her two main reasons for the same damn thing,
Like a first-round knockout happening in round three.

Chorus (2X)
Life is a wonder, sittin on the backdrop,
Waitin for my mind to find the right backlot,
Maybe I can find my walk inside song,
Maybe I can find my life inside this song.

Verse 2
I let the sunshine simmer down the drum line,
Woke up with the sunrise on the west side.
Maybe thats why, shits gone south side,
Folks dont like it when it snows on the front drive.
Soda written religion is what we listen and
The flow corrects the load to rest the vision.
And I figure its about four damn seconds.
To get to where we gettin. To rep the next session.
I got too much shit to stand corrected,
Unless it comes between life and lesson.
I advise perfection but I break obsession,
Rewind intention and I find reflection.
streets getting hollow from the sea of the heat,
And its lookin more bleak from the bottom of the week,
As the year rolls on, we stare at whats wrong
The memories blame the shame of whats gone
I keep my song wrapped up in a pipe bomb,
Trapped in a pen just incase I write wrong.
I love my life, but at cost of my inner hate,
The same things thatll eat me on a dinner plate.
The definition of love is always instigate,
The who said what when will obliterate.
I keep focused, my hearts gonna renovate.
Each dying step of the game, at any rate.

Chorus (2X)
