Serene Envy - No Church In The Wild lyrics

Life ain't about the dark chocolates or rose pedals It's about hiphop, you'd have to go through an apocalyse to be on Hov's level Its about stretching a dollar to create a bridge of opportunity Crossing so many borders until those filthy cops are shooting me Aiming for my heart but there's bullets trapped inside it Once your opinion becomes public, peace starts acting violent And your scenerio becomes unfurfilling There's no church in the wild, a church is just a building What it represents? the center of peace and cause of war A place that doesn't approve the messages in Tha Carter IV That believes government is synonymous to liars Who only care about taxes to make the economy much higher There's things adults know but they'll never tell you Rather keep it a secret than risk their lives to ever help you Tell you that you're living in the land of opportunity But these people wouldn't lend you a hand to dodge a scrutiny Birth, the arrival of the children is called that Its called survival of the fittest but we're all fat We blame the government cause it doesn't respect us But we're corrupted like the system, they just reflect us And it's ironic if you think about it in a way cause The government we are now is the same one we got away from There's an evil greater than mankind lurking our mother nature This world is run by a materialistic piece of smothered paper k**ed each other over it, the reason there's no sober kids More powerful than love, peace, causes fights and older flings To broaden my approach, I'll ask the people in the same group Would you rather buy a pair of kicks or donate money to St Judes? Why are you quiet? I'm asking you a question It's either yes or no, the fact is you're offended I just implied you are shallow and materialistic Life is seen through different mirrors so your appearance is twisted It's a crazy world that we live in You either matter or you don't, plus we're all on Satin's hitlist So either way pain is inevitable during your life span And might catch up with you when you can't fit into those tight pants Or when your paycheck withers away with every tax Failure is one road but success creates many paths But if you crash you might dismantle depending on your strength Don't let the past become depression extending on its length Turn on the news and all I see is needy folks Crime after crime, let me turn off Univision Same crimes every week, it's ridiculously obsene I thought the whole point was to not let history repeat
