Like my parents said to me, just do the best for yourself
Friends from institution, no less professions
Seeing double speaking about support
Writing assignments, no relevance
Rapping all these words with self centered talents
Loud and clear speeches, no left to understand for the best of us
(I'll tell you what I don't believe in)
Truth and personality worth more than a pot of gold
(What I believe in not believing in)
Thats right, yeah, thats right
Just listen
Listen
(A- A- At any time)
Don't fake the influence when the person ain't about the culture
Don't fuck with the culture, zero transparency, zero tolerance
Aint a priest but a man tryna solve true problems
For the inner power, embodiment of pain
Reap what you rep gains
(Don- Don- Don't you lose!)
Best intuitions lead to a better life
(Don't you lose!)
With this so called game
Give it up for the culture (Don't lose! Don't lose!) (I want you)
Give it up for the culture (Me, m-Me, m-Me, Me) (I want you)
Oh, give me everything
I wanna understand this so called love
Love, oh lord, oh love
La la la la la
(I have to say that music keeps me here, by far, the main thing)
Oh give me everything
(Me, m-me, m-me, me, me, m-me, m-me, me, me, m-me, m-me, me)
Oh, give me everything
(I'm a pretty dark person, I've thought about ending it)
I wanna understand this so called love
Love, oh lord, oh love
La la la la la (Me, Me, Me! Me, Me, Me!) (I-I want you)
Man, man
Won't u tell me whats a love
Won't you tell me, Mr man where I'm gonna find a true love
Back in the golden age, the sun reflecting off of my father's beamer
Woven with loving hands into the textile of memory I remember
The first time I broke a heart it was my dad's
Couldn't understand emotion he felt holding my fragile frame
Wonder when I get my chance will I be the same
Wonder how deep family genetics run, will I make the same mistakes
The fifth time I broke my fathers heart I was 7
I bought a camera, Canon
Went to the beach for the weekend on a family picnic
That same beach
Today's a desolate waste
No sand to speak of its the rising tides but I digress
Packing up our bags walking to the car
Opening the car door and then I dropped it like a weight
Felt my heart sink
Canon
I felt the tremors in succession
Me and then him
Cannon
I guess it tore through his defences, got mad
Short temper like a fuse on a Canon
Fuck that delighting you always slogan
Now a teenager, mama always more the one to raise me
Cause dad was too busy raising up his blood pressure
(Don't lose Me!)
And to this day I do get aggravated
Abhorrence for authority I think it's in my genes in my DNA
Standing in the shower after a heated battle
Looking in the porcelain sink, I see his features in my damn face
Man
Cause we're really the very same creatures
Now I can't count the number of times our hearts have broken
But I can atest i've seen the worst and best
But love them all the same
Now if that ain't special
(I'm a pretty dark person, I've thought about ending it)
(Don't lose Me!)
Oh, give me everything
I wanna understand this so called love
(Don't lose me!)
Love, oh lord (Me, Me, Me! Me, Me, Me!)
La la la la la (Don't lose, Don't lose Me!)
Never try to fake the influence
I fucked up once or twice
This is not a three course meal like a three meals in a week
It's ok to make mistakes
Like I said it's ok to fuck up everything you ever been told of
Everything you've been told to that you've ever been dreamed of
So never lose your hope, never lose the dream
Keeping yourself safe
With the love
