Street Fam Turtle - Shouting Whispers lyrics

Hook Fearless to afraid to courageous Grateful for the struggles they who make us Beautiful warriors from a ugly place Raise your weapon wield your shield take the mask off your face [Verse 1: Mecca Rebell] What I say may spark a light But that depends how wide your perspective is Open to new ideas or shut tight? Hope it spreads like wildfire, we need a renewal soon or we 'bout to expire Am I preachin' to the choir? Even if I am I'll take my chances Without risk without spontaneity life is cancerous Really all life is is just a poor prognosis Which inevitably ends with rigamortis so before this Do what's important to you f** the unnecessary stress lose the meaningless Say it with your chest 'I am worthy' yes don't care 'bout being the best just a better me True definition of being free I like how 2Pac said it you feel me? No better way to live your life than to live how you want do it Even when they call you stupid, go do it, word of advice, just don't be stupid How 'bout this start by stabbing yourself in the heart with the arrow of cupid Thank me later takes time to transition like a retro crossfader Life is too short to be doin' something soul draining Conduct your soul train as you pave the tracks to whatever you feel to the marrows your aim With this game, called life, that's right Chorus Listen listen listen closely - In honest silence you could hear your heart whisper Write your write your write your write your story If doin' it right could call your soul a whistler From fearless to full of fear We were taught conformity and blind obedience through the years “Ignore your inner voice” the programmer says Too bad the voice bellowed a war cry “I'm gon' live my way!” Robot learnin' to be human again 'Til it realized it was the programmer from the beginnin' When I do with my instincts doors open Where iron walls stand these sounds the token I'm not serious nor am I jokin' I'm just hopin' [Verse 2: Mecca Rebell] This song may spark a flash but when you experience for yourself It envelopes the landscape of your soul like wildfire None can see it only the one feelin' it can see it Call me human torch flames of ambition I bleed it People ask “What's driving you? What motivates you?” All good questions sometimes I ask myself that too One of it's to prove those who doubted Wanted me to fail Burn out like hell Fall to the bottom like dead whales That I turned my dreams to achieved goals You go as far as you want to go get on with the show As I travel on this journey I'm my greatest friend and foe Number two, that inner whisper I follow Before it was so quiet I could barely hear it Only way to clearly hear it was the artificial bullsh** I shear it People, things, places, noun and verbs Adjectives that with wisdom no longer hurt Everyone has an idea of how others should live their lives but none of how to live their own So do your own get your own make your own I'm the king of myself my body the throne Use it or lose it don't know what we got 'til it's gone Standin' on the same ground but on different levels Are you on the one you want to be on? I try to make rights from my wrongs The pain and struggles transformed to poems, so here it goes Chorus ... [Verse 3: Mecca Rebell] As a child you felt you could take on the whole world Immortal invincible wonder boy super girl Then you grew up inside all of us there's another us that grows not by time but experience So shout out to Pica**o every child's an artist trick is to still be one as we grow up, ya know? As a result you did just as you were told and that inner voice you were told to ignore Good thing though the soul never dies The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago... Chinese Proverb The second best time is now Hook 2x ...
