Listen

I realized my life is flying by and I'm not afraid to die

I made a choice I chose to be the voice

Of the voiceless you heard that

I sold my soul to punk rock and so I chose to walk alone baby

Yeah I gotta stay high man you know how I get down

Never say die never lay down nigga

You realized your life is flying by

And you're not ready to die tell what did I find

You take a hit you rose and from the hip explode the hollow tip homey

This time the rhymes will cut through the fake cable news

Yeah we gotta stay high man you see

How we get down never say die never lay down nigga

Listen times are changing

Everybody knows the games you're playing

One fall down and the rest will follow

Prepare today for the world tomorrow

I wake up and bake I shake up the world that's what I'm here for

Lights out before the nights out I'm a see what you about baby

There comes a time when every man decides to live or die for freedom

Yeah you gotta stay high man you know

How I get down never say die never lay down nigga

The black car the white collar covers

All the bullet holes in the government yard

Try to hold on pray for the dawn

But this time the nights are so f**king long

I get confused I don't know

How to lose so I keep my DJ on the 1's and 2's

I pay the court I bleed the boss

I suffered the loss of a chosen few

Listen times are changing

Everybody knows the games you're playing

One fall down and the rest will follow

Prepare today for the world tomorrow

Listen times are changing

Everybody knows the games you're playing

One fall down and the rest will follow

Prepare today for the world tomorrow

I know you wanna take an eye for an eye

But pretty soon the whole world will be blind

Hey hey come on
