Traffik - Sky Comes Down lyrics
[Verse One] They say I lost touch with the game like 50 after Aftermath The aftermath was my master cla** fell faster than the sky does My fly rhyme wine buzz, sipping chardonnay tryna chart my way The kid never was Columbus, a hundred dollars in my wallet chasing clouds away The fruit was so abundant, the truth was so deluded My mind was always racing trying to contemplate the fate I'm facing Cos all I really wanna do is slow down for a minute Cruise towns for a living, the gifted couch surfer The flight life, the samsonite The gla** in hand for the times I looked down on the man I am But I'm learning til the day that my bridges stop burning I wanna live it free til the world stops turning Empowerment, eyes of the owl She looked so sweet but its a sour kiss [Chorus] Yeah this thing we call life, yeah It wasn't all easy but at least I've got her with me and she'll never leave me Yeah this thing we call life, yeah It wasn't all easy but at least I've got her with me and she'll never leave me Things my paper teach me Things my path teach me Things my mom teach me There ain't another way So til the day I lay my head under the stars for the final time I guess all I can do is just wonder why [Second Verse] It's funny it never really ends the way that you thought that it would But at least I can't say that I thought I should of The tri-colour the times I bragged my rhymes bu*ter The times I thought I'd die out my light would flicker and stutter She had the shutter, she had the paisley And tucked behind her ear she wore a daisy Nitobe where kids would rhyme 40 lines while sipping 40's and glorious wine Trading stories like lovers in high rises My morning, my mourning My black suit and shoes The DeLorean he drove The streaked paint brushing his clothes The seed as it grows from the rain as it flows from tear ducts of lost souls The cross roads by the lost grove where I'd dance with her The fam pictures, the past scriptures That I wrote trying to float to the sky cos I'm a drifter I'll never leave her side and I whisper [Third verse (after pause)] So close to greatness so close to making a statement So close I can almost taste it, so I'm waiting My placement in a strange station, my vain statement I'm just tryna cool down, who got played the fool now Cos all I'm really tryna do is slow down for a minute Cruise towns for a living The gifted couch surfer The flight life, the samsonite The gla** in hand for the times I looked down on the man I am [Chorus] Yeah this thing we call life, yeah It wasn't all easy but at least I've got her with me and she'll never leave me Yeah this thing we call life, yeah It wasn't all easy but at least I've got her with me and she'll never leave me Things my paper teach me Things my path teach me Things my mom teach me There ain't another way So til the day I lay my head under the stars for the final time I guess all I can do is just wonder why [Outro] Dark days are gonna come, yeah dark days are near Dark days are gonna come, yeah dark days are here Dark days are gonna come, yeah dark days are near Dark days are gonna come, yeah dark days are here (Beat by eelxb)
