(Original song Don Get It produced by Rodnae for Lil Wayne)
Lyrics:
(chorus one)
(verse one)
most of the time i feel all alone, and these days i don't even have no peace at home / so my folks wonder whether Im under the weather / either stress or idleness and neither one is better / but you know what does the devils deeds / what's the use of a closed eye that never sees / what's the use of these lungs if we never breathe / i thought that you would be around and you would never leave / heart on my sleeve, i believe it's in a smile / honestly joy, i admit it's been a while / since i felt it in my soul like i was deep in love / i can't seem to find the passion i was dreaming of / speaking of drawing lines between a friend and foe / these days they seem the same so it's hard to know / confusing, life it's like a million miles to run / tiring, but you told me these trails would come
(chorus two)
(verse two)
I said u told me that these trails would come / but when they came it was constant as the rising sun / an African in the new world as black as cole / in a stolen land whiter then the driven snow / so i'm feeling like the truth it's not what i should mention / though i know the road to hell is paved with good intention / some friends turn their back like they never saw / while my enemies are pointing at my every flaw / but my people know the good in me / two extremes got the kingdom not the hood in me / took me a lifetime to find but one love / here with infinite critics but only one judge / so i've been searching for the you hard where art thou / those that don't know me calling me a dark cloud / it's raining they run for shelter like the tent is up / i want to talk but they got all their defenses up / so it's hard just to communicate / most of us kill our dreams and assume our fait / makes me go in side but when it surfaces / my expression it is often misinterpreted / then they throw their assumptions like they know it's me / so i wear their insecurities all over me / i want to wash away this feeling in the purest spring / I know the caged birds quiet but i'm sure it sings / so I hold back my trust like i'm in constant danger / false friend without trust they are just a stranger /never anger though love is at the soul of me / so i tell the truth but they believe it's poetry
(chorus three)

Sounds like someone else... i heard. Maybe it was Ian Kamau, really feeling this. I love the uniqueness of his voice.

What's the use of a closed eye that never sees?
