2Ru3 - Thinkin' Bout Life lyrics

[Intro] You know man... Somebody told me that....heh.... Dying is easy.....Living is hard..... [Chorus x 2] Laid back...thinking bout life... Hoping for better days I'm trying to see the sunshine...hey.... [Verse] Daily I strive to push forward and pave a new path Accomplish goals and gain new riches yet still stand as a man Though opposition seek to destroy my mind is made To find a place where the sun shines though time to time it rains Seems my life's fabric has been sown with lesser hills than valleys But with perseverance with faith, somehow I still manage Treated lesser than elements taken to shape my physical form Beaten with words of degradation though love I gave from my soul Joyous times seem out of place when compared with my burdens Feels I been shot deep in my soul, but the bullet keep turning Thinking of my juvenile years, flooded with tears Who knew with pain you be repaid for keeping it real with your peers At times it seems my life's been laid out and setup for failure Causing confliction deep in my spirit cause deep in me I feel greatness I'm tired of working hard seeing nothing come to fruition Let me get mine...cause time is ticking [Chorus] [Verse] Seems I'm imprisoned within a paradoxical state of living Cause it's so much more in this life I want to achieve and witness Like being a beacon of light, bringing positive change Lifting up spirits of the sorrow ridden, broken, beaten and chained But I feel stretched beyond my capacity, truly weary Yet still hoping for happiness though my days seem dreary See I envision me mic ripping kicking lyrics to rhythms With so much soul I can touch and move a crowd of about 100 million As my strength from above mobilizes me I follow Rivers and roads never known by those whose souls and hearts deemed hollow Laying foundations for present and future generations to come Making known what it means to keep it real and walking in love Gaining respect from those deemed my enemies and opposers Labeled a legend repping truth even in the midst of the phonies Never known for kicking gibberish or presenting false imagery Showing music from the soul, still alive and kicking, baby [Chorus] [Verse] Picture me flowing with more strength, and grace then a river Throwing lyrical haymakers, knocking out instrumentals Remaining humble, meek and lowly though compared with those before me Never switching from my intention to help your spirit move forward Though figgaz and cheese beyond my dreams may accumulate for me daily I'll strive with all my heart and soul to never let money make me Boasting and bragging never identified as one of my actions Just a man of love as shown to God my fellow man and my family Who went from sitting in cla** writing lyrics peaking out windows To gripping microphones and ripping flows with soulistic rhythms Inspiring minds of juveniles to stand for truth and be greater Elevating the degraded through my soul shown on paper Reflecting on times past as I stare through my rearview Thanking God I'm seeing the fruit for all the things I pursue And to homie who ain't here with me, I'll be seeing you n***a In a place of perfect peace, for eternity n***a, ay [Chorus] [Outro - Singing]
