Growing up is a cycle that never stops
The knowledge you've gained
One day you must impart
On the mind or the soul
Or the heart of another
Sifting through memories
Some days are harder than others
VERSE I
Please pardon me for the
Problems I delivered
In pursuit of my peace
I've warred with my inner
And in the path of it all
There are friends that I've hindered
I never monetized love
Though money often enters
Conversations & Relations
Situations leave me bracing
Should I pay in cents or sense
These thoughts they keep me pacing
Reluctantly I've taken
Gifts and / or donations
Voices meet invoices
That question if I'll pay them
Gigs still wanna pay me
I wonder if I'll take'em
DaWitch is the reason
We can hold #MCKM
Free albums given to zombies
I wonder if they played'em
Whats the price one should pay when
Saying our music saved'em?
Growing up
Is a cycle that never stops
The knowledge you've gained
One day you must impart
On the mind or the soul
Or the heart of another
Sifting through memories
Some days are harder than others
VERSE II
Thinking of those days
Without my father & mother
Heating the house with the oven
With my Aunt and my cousin
I learned we was broke
While playing Dozens with 3rd cousins
I thought the heat stayed out
'Cause there was so much love in man!
We was super broke
And stayed super soaked
From SuperSoakers
Filled with hopes
By Kinfolks that truly loved us
How many of us
Appreciate the pain from loved ones
Meant to add strain
Promote change & "Mario" 1-up us?
Even tough love gets Misjudged. Disrupts
And dislodges logic from a just cause. (Damn)
Just because its misunderstood
Does it mean that the act
Or action is not good?
I need to know
I'm trying to grow
Before I go
Please let me know
