I Wish (Death Poem)
(专辑: Honor Killed The Samurai - 2016)
I
wish we ain't have to live like this I
wish we ain't have to live like this I
wish Wish for a
new life when I
blew out them candles Was in them cruel nights, knew I
was about to scramble A
little crook to get em hooked, threw out a
sample Five soldiers against high rollers, the
crew out to gamble If them crackas'll blitz and catch the
package I
pitch You could quote me, it won't be a
slap on the
wrist But that's the
risk when you wish to rack in the
bricks And you getting it for whipping the
caps and the
zips Flexin 'em ounces destined to stretch to the
mountains Defenders not represented by the
best of the
counselors All in one stack from jump packs hastily diminish Running lower done with before the
case even finished But I
swear I
ain't hear a
word of this Wheeling and dealing, feeling impervious When it's steady sling fuck everything is the
mantra I
never said a
thing, just let it ring through contra I
nest hate, hold heat so weak in my best shape You press fate, press late it's your death date Get down for the
crown, even if it got thorns Fights are final when might is primal we lock horns Won't dupe the
block you shoot to stop no shots warned Never slack cause attack first time we spot yawns Rah! That's the
infantry symphony For revenue we're telling you, this ain't how it's meant to be You and your peers prime years ignored your call Grinding gears, for cheers here trying to score for more Can't see certain of the
peace, became lord of war Holy controller was rolling in the
corridor If anything move through, who you? Fuck you want? Aggressive but finesse is how to pull a
tougher stunt The
high is getting money money, never had to puff a
blunt For the
record it's saw as checkers, you get huffed the
jump Tryna kick-start when blitz hard, rush the
pump Pack heat, too big for the
backseat, bust the
trunk And if men caught they taught to hush for monks Never know me to fear, only veneers is the
custom fronts I
wish we ain't have to live like this I
wish we ain't have to live like this Nothing ruffles the
equanimity of his spirit. In the
heat of battle, he remains cool. In the
midst of catastrophes, he keeps level his mind. We admire him as truly great, who in the
menacing presence of danger or death, retains his self-possession. Such indulgence betraying no tremor in the
writing or in the
voice, can compose a
poem under impending peril or hum a
strain in the
face of death. These were known as samurai
