Carlito SF - Transcending. lyrics

Verse 1 Dont... Muhhf**in lie to me, I want that real sh** & dont.. Muhhf**in cry to me I won't deal with it, NO! I done seen, heard, smelled a lotta sh**, sudden disgust, city of lust, mistrust, fields boomin' from when the guns bust, cause i seen a lot of n***as fall that look like us Life is so iffy, & for a while there i thought there would be no one that would get me ...I been deadly for so long... Still waiting on somebody to check me None can't check me, i'm up next b Tired of the threats about how y'all peasants could wreck me, just let me, live my life & i promise to ignore you all Came down so much im not afraid of the fall I lived too damn long to go ghost & im sick of the bullsh** my peers think matter most Not even close & they know, just dont know which way to go, whether its the posts, the tweets, the clothes, it all doesn't matter if you dont have mind of your own Ask me where do we go from here Dont you feel like the end is near Like we been messed up, all dem bless ups, dont mean a thing when your future ain't clear Still tryna bring back the period of enlightened, but they hoping that i lighten up I heightened up, got that aura, man i got that glow, homie i just brightened up Bridge Locked myself in a room & heard the echoes of insanity, fallacies Attacking the thoughts of my simple vanity Channeling, spirit nature, that way it would carry me Hoping it would help correct my current balancing Cause you got me f**ed up, down on my luck man i gave that up, depressing sh** only left me stuck & it s**ed, life too short i gotta live it up Hook Gotta live it up, life too short man we gotta live it up Only got one time, cuz we only got one time Gotta live it up, life too short man we gotta live it up Only got one time, cuz we only got one time Verse 2 I was screwed when i found out, that everything important, has to get its importance from something else that is even more important & the importance in society is based off hype So how do i live my life ? When everyone in charge is moving so trife But then again, you can't get mad, cause you let all the bad in when you're playing nice Play by the rules & conform Rather break my arm than join in on something so corny Dont be alarmed, if i dont feel wrong then why would i ever say sorry Ramble ramble chit chat, never ask for criticism, thats all a n***a get back When its bout how much i've grown, or the talents i show, they never wanna admit that Surrounded by the negative, they preying for we Social Darwinism, we prey on the weak Ignoring the fact that we all tryna eat Knock each other down, only one gon' peak Coming for blood & we playing for keeps No playing fair, we all gon' cheat Not being discrete, we some idiots cause the only result is that we all get beat ....a bunch a jokes On this route we gonna be a bunch of wonts Won't be this, won't be sh**, won't be rich, won't be anything of worth Won't be worth the stop, busy being strung out on love & hip hop I'm behind the scenes hoping that my sh** pop, just so my message could spread through the ma**es Bridge Locked myself in a room & heard the echoes of insanity, fallacies Attacking the thoughts of my simple vanity Channeling, spirit nature, that way it would carry me Hoping it would help correct my current balancing Cause you got me f**ed up, down on my luck man i gave that up, depressing sh** only left me stuck & it s**ed, life too short i gotta live it up Hook Gotta live it up, life too short man we gotta live it up Only got one time, cuz we only got one time Gotta live it up, life too short man we gotta live it up Only got one time, cuz we only got one time
