Barring The Likeness

(アルバム： The Night's Gambit - 2013)

Barring the likeness
It's hard to live righteous
Barring the likeness
It's hard to live righteous

There was a time when I wasn't doing it right
Glued to the night moving to fight
On it truly in your sight
A bitch came off his sage for the bite
Remorse is true, lost a few
Price of the game
Warcries, .45's, lives in the drain

Barring the likeness
It's hard to live righteous
Barring the likeness
It's hard to live righteous

Did dirt that won't wash away
Most say your soul pay when your carcass lay
Discerning man in burning land, remorse is played
As a cub full of love, now my heart decay
Base hard, now I face God to pray
Outrun a case, our mistakes hard to say
Ancient book, Got 'em shook 'till modern day
Feel threat, pirouette, keep squads at bay
The hovering love scent helps us do a crime
Did thing like ring, protect self at all times
Lost my innocence
On a porch of tenements
Dingy stingy
My thoughts was generous
The pen is rich
Defend longtime friends
No shorts for nemesis
Lawyers is snakes
Courts is venomous
A sketch is spun for the precious young
Adjust they mind, tell them justice blind, deaf and dumb
Blessings come, school daughters protect your son
Wisdom spread, give 'em bread, I was never left a crumb

Barring the likeness
It's hard to live righteous

Don't gauge success by the movement of wealth
Fuck bank B, thank me by improving yourself
Had plenty fights, many nights Ruger with stealth
On wicked blocks, licking shots, removing your health
Was living differently 'till had epiphany
One fast death
One last breath
Still a victory
From entrance my sense is razor sharp
I rise and shine, wisest mind, bravest heart
My behavior tho' boom boom ravenous spark
Waved the dart at your favorite part
Effortless till specialist raised my chart
Foul child with wild style, can't cage the art

Barring the likeness
It's hard to live righteous
Barring the likeness
It's hard to live righteous

A crazy strip based me quick
Still official, bear with you, each page a brick
Heat lift you, peace be with you, gauge the grip
Chicks diss you 'till chips get you amazing dip
In God we trust for jars of dust
Laws we crush, for cars we lust
Case the purchase, cracks to flip
Lazy workers caught the whip
During time I was trying to emerge in the slum
You could find me bagging Adam's murderous son
Grind to fame
Automatics, no time to aim
Almost fucked my life up trying to abstain

Barring the likeness

There was a time when I wasn't doing it right
Glued to the night moving to fight
On it truly in your sight
A bitch came off his sage for the bite
Remorse is true, lost a few
Price of the game
Warcries, .45's, lives in the drain

"... The only thing that mattered was the attack, attack, attack at all cost. And the attacker was the great warrior of the night in the shinning armor and so on. Defensive moves were considered cowardly... "
