This desire I
come home high and she start to cry I
can't take it A
brand new excuse does me no use That won't make it She at home with the
kids, this is no way to live What can I
say? I
know it's surreal but I'm a
hard-headed still Do things my way And it's so strong, so strong It's like I'm dying Trying to hold on, my body says oh no oh out there Flying, the
price that I
pay for the
game that I
play Ain't no game at all I'm up in the
clouds and I'm spiraling down Nothing breaks the
fall And it's so strong, so strong It's like I'm dying Try to hold on, my body says oh no oh out there Flying Sounds of the
sufferers pray I
come home high and she start to cry I
can't take it A
brand new excuse does me no use That won't make it She at home with the
kids, this is no way to live What can I
say? I
know it's surreal but I'm a
hard-headed still Black Dante and it's so strong So strong So strong So strong I'm out there flying Flying Flying Flying This game is fantastic..desire Killers..this life this life Lovers..this life this life Hustlers..this life this life Thieves..this life this life Gamblers..this life this life Niggas..Crackers..Children..Mothers..Fathers..Lovers..Neighbors..Hungry Full..the beautiful..the stars..the distance..the close..the stars The

know the
minor world would probably look strange to him Would he feel like today had a
place for him? Global imprisonment, sickness, indifference When he said, "Save the
babies," was we listening? When he said, "Mercy, mercy," did he really know That decades later we'd still be killing folks? Or did he hope that we would realize That we the
