VERSE 1
I step fresh on the block with my veteran shoes (and) cut a line down the middle with some severing news; separating light from dark (it’s better to choose the Light) so you can shine like a treasure with jewels. Ha! See, people wanna test their fate; they go as far as they can like some measuring tape. And just because some man made it there and back without a scratch, people try it and it tears them in half (do the math). That’s what happens when you share in the crap of this world. It’ll hit you like a snare with a clap….Blap! It ain’t a joke, man I dare you to laugh! You’re better off getting caught with a bear in a trap! Oh! – And don’t forget the devil’s wearing a mask. It looks good but it’s disgusting like your rear end with gas! Yo be sober, don’t be sloping in a chair with a flask. Be alert; learn the Truth thru some prayer and a fast because you’ll never get it right in your heart if your heart can never separate the light from the dark. And bad company corrupts your character daily; I’ve seen the best people turn shady. Ain’t a game to be played. We need to check all our surroundings and safely move through territory like we’re carrying babies. I know this sounds a little bit crazy but trust; there’s some stuff we should avoid like a Muslim Israeli.
BRIDGE
And in this darkness lies a dose of death calling all who’s near (NaNa NaNa)
Reaping that which they have sown and this is all they will hear (NaNa NaNa)
Shades of Grey look good and fine but they deceive all who’s near (NaNa NaNa)
Demons taunt and tease and call while they sing this in your ear (Na Na Na Na)
HOOK
Not all things in life are good, gotta know when it’s wrong or right (yeah yeah)
May seem fine for the moment in time, and you can’t tell dark from light (woah woah)
Need somebody who can draw you a line, now’s the time, you can change today (hey hey!)
Feel the rhyme, giving sight to the blind, leave behind all them shades of grey (hey!)
VERSE 2
I find myself trying to teach people a lesson, exposing all the lies so I can reach them and bless them. They come back at me saying “Yo, that’s YOUR perception”. But let me tell ya homie, ain’t no greater deception! “To each his own” is the most famous of phrases for people who don’t wanna take the blame for their ways, kid. The wages of sin is death, no way to debate this; it wouldn’t change a thing, that’s what the Ancient of Days says! Only a fool despises the wisest counsel you can get; the kind that opens your eyelids. And I just advise kids to drop all their vices.
Reach for things that ain’t a part of evil devices. Some of what you hear me say could seem so confusing, especially when the folks you idolize in life are excusing the same behaviors that I speak against in my music but refuse it! It’s a lie and you gonna die if you choose it. Assuming, if your friends do it, you do it too; in a room of influence, don’t deny it, it’s true! I been through it all before and what a toll to pay. Like a puppet on a string, so controlled and swayed! It’s time for you to step it up and make a decision to be your own person in this life you’ve been given…..to make some better choices, seek the truth and envision a life without destruction or an eternal prison!
