E-LUX - Pure Ecstacy lyrics

Chorus I made a promise That I never let the streets Get the best of me Shells drop n***as get buried Keep on testing me You only get one to live Where's the rest of me The only thing we guaranteed Is d**h It's pure ecstasy Verse 1 As a youth Growing up in the ghetto Up in projects Lots of sacrifices Were made By myself To avoid problems I was Always in to music Had to go upstairs early Before the lights outside Went out I had to be up in the house Some of my friends They sold d** But I couldn't My mother went to church Every Sunday And my father Made sure i wouldn't Follow my friends He was always On my case Up in my face I couldn't get away with much I knew my place So with that I made a promise That The streets Wouldn't get The best of me And the streets Was forever testing me I reached deep inside myself And started f**ing with best of me n***as laughed What I got job They start respecting me Real quick! I started stacking up my chips Writing rhymes I Started free styling And getting chicks Of course n***as got jealous They was all up on the dick They swore they a** Was much better But my sh** was just to clever Iwrite rhymes forever I Shut em down ! Chorus I made a promise That I never let the streets get the best of me Shells drop n***as get buried Keep on testing me You only get one life To live Where's the rest of me The only thing we guaranteed Is d**h It's pure ecstasy Verse 2 Deep down I always knew That id be making hits I think it had something To do Wit The way My momma made them grits The way they stuck to me! n***as outside Smoking that huckabee Reluctantly Out of force of habit They don't f** wit me Luckily My life has always Been some what Amazing The streets love drama But this ain't Broadway Or a play It's been more like a tragedy If I could defy gravity I would get up off this earth And fly away Somewhere rapidly I'm too aggressive I push forward Never look back Always myself I'm so impressive Take care of my health I'm a live long time At least That's what the psychic told me Said I never would have to worry about wealth My family made a man of me I will never lose My sanity I keep positive thoughts Flowing through the brain My veins Is pumping wit blood These so called thugs Out the streets they need hugs The need love They grew up wit No father They all bugged Its crazy! Chorus (Repeat) Verse 3 Now here's the recipe All you need is Salt , Pepper And sesame A ink pen College ruled paper Get it done Professionally Map out your strategy What step one What's step two Put it motion And let it flow Like a raft do The world is filled with So many people That's conniving And when I'm driving I try and hit em No I'm lying There's no denying Ultimately You are you are Your own fate Decisions you make Will Shape And create Ya fate At my cousin wake I cried He was too young To die Reminded me of my life I feel grateful To be alive So with that I try To give my best Everyday Cuz Life ain't for play Cuz it could be my last day to say I appreciate Everyday I could take two steps Some people ain't legs Some people got burnt Flesh I'm hot to d**h! Chorus I made a promise That I never let the streets Get the best of me Shells drop n***as get buried Keep on testing me You only get one to live Where's the rest of me The only thing we guaranteed Is d**h It's pure ecstasy
