Aesop - After I'm Gone lyrics

[Bica**o talkin'] Yeah... ehem... we finally grown up now Looking back from the halfway point Looking forward too Still doin' these songs you know... dedications Goin' out to our children, all our nieces and nephews Family members and our loved ones Pressin' it on the plastic see how long it lasted Forever and a day... look [Bica**o] You ever think about the sunrise and sunsets? Just another day of planets spinnin' on its axis Gravitational pulls the moon and the stars The tides are afected and lives are connected How bold we are? As bold as love But only strong as our weakest link push to shove How many times we wasn't trippen off of it just because The game was on you see that same old song We havin family reunions now that someone's gone I'm looking at what I'm doing like is something wrong Can I better myself for strength and health? And do the words that I say get played and someone felt? Touched, do i think too much? If I make my momma proud well is that just enough She won't land me a family with lots of stuff I know that that's on me so I don't just emcee I move in artforms music niftily You could package me up and use it you'll see And when I'm done put fire to flame Lift my ashes to the ocean and cry my name After I'm gone [Hook1] After the love after the pain After the tears after the change There'll still be music and growth There'll still be power and hope So feel me there'll still be people who know [Eligh] After my chapter is done so captured by sun rays mastered the one play Always forget to run one way street's a fork's in the road middle ground I Ended up with the gla** that's half full Blessed is every footprint that I chose to lay Yes it's only right to say that I had my way I could never complain using his name in vein (has worked??) for me, then you Takin' advantage of talent just to seek the truth Besides the fact that I was galant with my silver steed and grip And failed at my most important first relantionships And wailed at the moon on shrooms feelin' doom then consumed By my panoramic view of a ceramic world askew I then cracked the gla** with the closed fist of hate And I tried to sit and wait in a meditative state But this gypsy had a soul of a wanderin' king With two broken legs and two giant wings [Hook1] [Hook2] After the struggle after the fear After the troubles after the dust is clear There'll still be fire and ice There'll still be d**h and life [Aesop] After the child let his soul release His body and his mind finally found his sleep Those who loved him seen him dancin in the dreams they keep And heaven's never close to the devil's heat Though the fire burned deep within his essence The presence remain in his childrens' frame Stronger than his name man the game is blood flow The best traits, the pa**ion the gusto Lost all his bad things mostly the lust for Money and his problem the open and trust those People that he loved he watched the dust flow Ashes to mother earth is where they must go Join with God envelope within the beautiful Music ever singing the hymns His family still feel him cause they singin to him Good that he's gone is how it's seemin to him Cause all the troubles in his family now that's seemin to him The sin in his soul now that's seemin to them The lineage he left helped his family to win A chance for the happiness to finally begin [Hook1] [The Grouch] Legacy, photographs, memories The best station me through my phonograph spin it please Connecting dots all thoughts of a young man What do we have here love and strong man We're all journeymen have been and will be Dollar dirty nah I was earthy filthy Show my people that way I hope they feel me If I die today I got no regrets what is is still me Minus a shell I'm in the wind in the trees Legends to be told like mythology And if all of these seas gon' wanna swallow you up I'll be right next to God here to follow through with what I was called for broke the law for saved it all for Cried my eyes and moved my jaw for Call for my help and I'm there If only through my spirit I'm gone but still here After I'm gone...
