Eligh - Today lyrics

"A new day's dawnin" {*Scratched by DJ Bonez*} [Hook] {X2} Tomorrow is another today But there ain't no other today [Verse 1: Muph] Ok, huh, I won't waste away Waiting for that superhero to save the day Ok, eventually waste away But today bringin broke like Rogaine, there's no way To escape the blame, they disposed of the faith And it won't be their only mistake I've got an open range like Werribee Make amends with friends that ended up enemies With a tendency to put things off Mind back and forth, ball in ping-pong We don't live long so I'ma sing along To the sounds of that dial tone, today's a milestone See it's been awhile since we last spoke Pick up the phone, callin to let you know I've got hope in the spokes of those trainin wheels Overcoat, overdosed but the paint will peel "A new day's dawnin" {*Scratched by DJ Bonez*} [Hook] {X2} [Verse 2: Raph Boogie] Is there time tomorrow to do what I'm sposed ta Do today? Can I put that off? Can I make my way without feelin lost? Or do I gotta get it done at any cost? The option is self-inflicted When the foresight can't be immediately given And the stakes have risen while the pain is creepin But I keep goin, deny the sleepin And I know, that with rest comes clarity But the checklist keeps messin with my sanity How can it be pilin up? And then I look to myself like "smarten up" Yeah, and be the father that I am Turn off that box son and put a book in your hand And get my game together Rain, hail or sun, can't blame no weather "A new day's dawnin" {*Scratched by DJ Bonez*} [Hook] {X2} [Verse 3: Eligh] Today's the day I make my way, I make my voice so loud so crowds Overseas hear me, near me got mine, got reach, got speech No judgement punch and flow control, adios, out of all complex context In touch with your - innermost side, emotional ocean Leavin you open, got my toes in undertow, unavailable Won't drag you under like many men who got drugged, under the rug Makin those mean mugs wanna be thugs, wanna beef up, what? I'm not the one today, not the one to say sh** When you're fallin fast like a brick, and I'm ballin past in my whip I'm not that there so much and so then therefore I'ma straight on earth, I'm here to live Just for today, just to say "bring this beef" on earth There's so much worth and there's so much work and you got me churpin rhymes Bring you down to the dirt, downtown when the frown prints on the outskirts of the streetlights I'ma be right here, livin for today With no fear, livin for today Tomorrow's not here and yesterday's gone I'm here for today and I'll see you on the other side [Hook] {X2} [Verse 4: The Grouch] Well I can't put it off, I put it on, tell me when ta Still get it done though I'm gone till November Reborn in the mornin, die every evenin Come back fresh from more pressure, no grievin I use my mind like a medicine, chess I'm a legend and I'm living a veteran, yes Today I haven't thought about somethin they forgot about Bein myself, the conscious brought it out Tomorrow brings what sorrow sings so I won't cry over things that dry up What it is is what it is, not what it was It's all love, blood in Blood out, you in the dug out then bu*t out I'm in the field, eatin what the crops yield That's if the soil's certified organic Because I'm royalty on this planet "A new day's dawnin" {*Scratched by DJ Bonez*} [Hook] {X2} [Verse 5: The Tongue] Aiyyo, I wrote this verse on Thursday the 5th Cause I wasn't sure who I'd be by Friday the 6th See my mind state is sick, rhymes bleed out the ear If it's midnight on Pluto, what day is it here? See time tames the fear, makes you feel immortal You're fifty in a flash, years lost to the black hole Where does your youth go? Ain't there a loophole? Can't somebody tell me, where is the truth sold? I once was a new soul now I'm so dusty Just trusted my watch, slave to the swatch Not a moment to waste when you're alone in the race Tonight's your last supper, put plenty on the plate b**h I got them old school sk**s, back to basics Emcee and microphone, lyrics and no patience You Play Stations, we get played on stations Did the hard yards yesterday, tomorrow gonna take this "A new day's dawnin" {*Scratched by DJ Bonez*} [Hook] {X4}
