[Julius - Spoken word]
What is luck?
Whatever luck is, I doubt I know it
Whatever luck is, I'm down on it
This bottle of Jack Daniels I down it
Now it seems I'm drowning
On the floor I'm down on it
I've been down before
I know when I'm down
If you know when you down on it
Laying downloaded
If luck is an app I'll download it
Luck... Sounds foreign
Wherever luck is I search around for it
All around town for it
If luck comes around every blue moon
I'm a wolf, I'll howl for it
I wanna be around for it
Round four it's looking grim
I'm down for the count
I gotta keep fighting for it
I'm down for it
Where is luck?
I keep hearing people tell me they 'lucked up'
So if I look up is luck up?
I think if luck's up
Luck is looking down on me and can't come down
Luck is stuck up
If you ain't genuine, don't tell me to buck up
Shut the f** up, your cup runneth over
My bottle is empty, f** cups
I'm blessed though
I know what blessings are
Blessing is when you walk outside to no harm
Blessing is when you have all extremities - both legs and both arms
Blessed is when you look another person in the eyes and tell them to have a good day with no qualms
Blessed is the man who walks not in the council of the wicked, I quote Psalms
Nah, but I ain't lucky though, I ain't lucky
Nah, I ain't lucky
I come from a place full of men sinners and women sinners
If we paid more attention to sinners, there'd be no detention centers
Youthful centers; aging centers; baby sinners; no baby sitters
A land full of unwatched kids, questionable fathers
I question my pops' too - pop quiz
But nah, I ain't lucky
If I'm lucky, look at the way that luck did me
Even though I'm not lucky
I'm too blessed to say I'm unlucky
Even reluctantly...
