DRTYUNCL - Lovestream lyrics

These days hope's all that I got Except my family, friends and love of hip hop Told my negativity to kick rocks When the dust settled, found a new way to think my thoughts I used to be lost 'til I found the audience that I needed And they proceeded to give me an applause And I pause, thinkin' "Damn how'd I come so far?" From Coconut Joe's, writin' bars in Froelich's garage I used to dream of bein' a rap star Then I learned maintainin' that lifestyle is hard I'm happy as hell bein' little old me It gives me more time to drink from the lovestream And I'm not sayin' I'm above things like wealth And I'm certainly not the picture of perfect mental health But I think the first step is knowin' yourself Gotta learn what makes you click before you hit The alarm, thinkin' 'bout tomorrow not knowin' who you are Its easy to aimlessly wander along But you'll never learn to put notes into your song If you never erase what you've written wrong You're not strong, barely even existent But I think our insignificance is more than upliftin' Once you find the documentary unscripted We'll work together and upgrade the equipment Figments of the imagination are ego That's really why we progress so slow So I'm writin' this track to let the loved ones know That I'm infinitely grateful for road That we pave together, because who's to say? The engine might sputter out later today And everything great comes to an end anyway So I'll end this CD with a thank you and a peace
