BK Beats - Paradise lyrics

[INTRO: Shapri] Wise.. How deep is your soul? How strong is your heart? The world is ripping us apart. Paradise. Paradise. Paradise. TRUE! [VERSE 1: Chris Wise] Paradise, will you find me? Three prison walls confine me So much pain on my Warrior ankles I won't see 30 'Til then I'm thankful For a life so gold DON'T TREAD ON ME Don't tread on me I'm not a doormat Midnight train to God Knows Where Fear not God 'cuz I am here And if that sounds frightening Then allow me to invite you in: 36 chambers of enlightenment Can't understand equality When picking cotton is policy Who the f** said I'm three-fifths? WHO THE fu*k SAID WISE THREE-FIFTHS?! Nowadays gotta keep the 22 smith, By any means tryna see Emmitt lift Rise from the river, can't deny how I'm living When the 9th ward still submerged in grime Southside Chi third world for crime Where the hell is our Chiefs? huh?! 45 shots, Fred Hampton in the sheets Don't come back n++ga, Jordan won't save us Don't put your life on the line for the Breds I can hear mics on my line to the feds WISE DON'T SLEEP I'm up all night reading COINTEL briefs Pissed off, bussin' holes in the TV Real housewives just hoes on the creep Hoes on the creep Fake a** tits with the stank a** weaves Illadelph rips of the dank a** weed Misery loves company And that would explain our love for the gang! Thank God I got love from the fam 'Member that night I cried on the couch on a conference call three-way to the sky Black Full house, not one dry eye Uncle Jesse please feed me beats To convey these dreams and bust out these seams Uniq-lo, 10 dollar jeans Broke as a joke but I'm rich in the heart Pell check came, please momma don't start All that money talk gone tear us apart Begging me to pull my weight As if I don't grind like 25-8! What's a contribution from a college student Sacrifice his life to design the future? Be-be patient, we already made it And nobody knows the troubles I seen The other side ain't no twice as green Simple life is all that I need C' notes, quotes, and potent IV's Please tell Dean what it meant to me True colors shown in a room full of ghosts Writings on the wall but I really couldn't see Never had stripes 'til she bought me three My Gazelles got stories to tell Punched the mountaintop from the pits of hell Wouldn't try walkin in if I'z you Do you wanna really see your name in the news? Do you wanna really see your name in the news? All pub ain't good pub And all d** ain't good d** But you live and you learn and you struggle and you fail Wake up just in time to make bail Spine got tapped but I didn't go to jail Led the revolution from a ambulance It all fell through like a avalanche Snowed in Draped out Dripped up Flip cup That was never my game They used to call me "Waterboy" What the f** is my name? NNNAAAGGGHHHH Know they'll love me when I'm famous I know they'll hate me when I'm gone/ Know they'll hate me when I'm famous/ Know they'll love me when I'm gone So I'm bumping Street Poems on the 43 home Where the heart and hatred start Refined my cane in a brown sugar plant Then the universe played its part Have you, ever? Deferred on a dream so bright That you die tryna find that light That you cry tryna climb that flight Get wise to divine advice I done found tripping thru my life Paradise ain't no promised land Paradise is why you fight Paradise ain't no promised land Paradise is why you... FIGHT FIGHT Paradise is why you FIGHT!
