Sunrise/Sunset

(albüm: Southernunderground - 2003)

Sunrise...
Sunset...
Sunrise...
Sunset...

Life is so beautiful
But sometimes I feel so unsuitable and it drowns out what's musical
And then I just find myself drinking and thinking
Making no turns yet my signal is blinking
Feeling bad cause no judge is giving me ten
Breaking rules to get up out of the deep end
On the verge of having trouble begin
Drama never leaving
(Hot!) is the weather where I'm from
(Hot!) is situations that come
(Hot!) is how people get when
They're stuck in a pit, world not giving a shit
Life is suppose to be beautiful, but it's a crucible
Turning me into a person brutal who's
Psycho-dependent on money, bitches, drugs
Funny business stuff, can I give it up?
Yes I love, to get paid, get laid
Get drunk, get high, but then I hear kids cry
Saying that they need a model to follow
But I still find a liquor bottle to hollow

Sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time
Insecurities tingle racing up my spine
Facing crime in an eye to eye, head to head
Thinking of how to get dough to bread, keep roses red
I realize that my life is composed of the actions I take
Combined with the feelings I hold
But sometimes negativity molds a heart
From its start it's just trying to get over
But you can't let it fold tha soldier
That from it's inception, needing lucks blessing from clovers
Cause when it fights, it strikes, it slices, it bites
From morning to night, back through darkness to light
It's office is yo' life, builds a fortress that's tight
You can call it Christ or whatever you like
But to ignore it is yo' right, you deal your will
You reap what you sew, you till your field
But post battle, who will heal your shield
So many vices you can sacrifice, kill and grill
Cause you gotta see that the world will confuse you
With abused clues
I flip through news
And see that the world's a treasure chest of misused jewels
Who can't maintain... from sunrise, to sunset... they face pain
There used to blue skies got grey stains
And are surrounded by friends who got snake fangs
But you gotta block it
Don't avoide it, destroy it, throw it up in a box and then lock it
Cut power when docs try to shock it
Cause that ain't the shit you should welcome your block with
