Aceyalone - The Balance lyrics

Intro: Mr. mix mr. dj play that beat. Won't you play if for me. in the mix mister hop Forward hop back. hop, hop hop. Verse 1: The second somebody dies somebody else is born People are celebrating while other people mourn Home may be home to you but to me it's foreign Even the matador don't pull the bull by the horns One man's enemy is another man's friend One man's poisons is another man's medicine So let us stand, let us sit and let us view The changing of the guard oh it's so hard to keep it true It's the balance of the scales it can't be challenged or expelled Soon as somebody lost somebody else prevails Some someone is quiet at the same time someone yells Half full or half empty water in the well It's the half and half hypothesis the 50/50 theory Eerie as it may seem check your balance beam It's the half and half hypothesis the 50/50 theory Eerie as it may seem check your balance beam Now check your balance beamer with a feather and a rock Wheath or not you find the answer is really not the plot See it's like love and hate (love...and hate) The same emotion different weight People love to hate so i know you know just how this all relates It's the posa and the nega tive Mini and mega live Arm a leg a leg an arm headed by a n***a Like big and small Short and tall Night and day and so on Some people are bashfull Some people just love to get their flow on (they flow on) So here goes one to grow on I'm a go on and on and on till the principles are laid out The scales of justice weighed out Till your memory starts to fade out and your game of life is played out Got to balance out the power don't we? Balance your emotions Push and pull positions like the moon pulls on the ocean Balance on one foot that's equilibrium Opposites attract and retract that's a fact I'm a libra y'all! 180 degrees but not that hot So whether or not you find the answer is really not the plot (really not the Plot) Because giving is recieving (and) and seeing is believing (and) And the solar system rotes so harmonious and even It's perfectly balanced Verse 2: Some people say life is about taking chances choices and decisions Voices and opinions, politics and religion Clues the past and cash and keys to the future It's a possibility and probability on who's gonna execute yo a** Some slow and an*lytical Some quick fast on the dash Like heads or tails but the head usually leads the tail So i tell my tales from the head Cause they're embedded inside my cells Real quick let me tell you about a fact i know things will even out You can disbelieve or doubt or even shout or leave it in your mouth Cause how you gone reason wit grand mother nature Running mother earth controlled by father time who's the chaser It's living and dying homey Laughing and crying dude Trying or lying my brother Walking or flying fool Now half of you are gone find the time to shine The other half gone find crime, money weed wine Till it's to late in a disillusion state of mind I just found my peace of mind Now they want a piece of mine To late in a disillusion of mind The orthodox is the unorthodox they just got you on the names The insane and the sane are the same It's a damn shame so many people's aim is so lame And their gain is so minimal Caught up in the subliminal It's pleasure and pain, water for the flames, the wild and the tame The style still remains if you use the right side of your brain Instead of going against the grain You can penetrate the vein to the point where what remains is a stain Of this universal thang That we call balance balance..
