Godemis - Perfect Essence lyrics

[Verse 1: UBI] Before my life took the direction it has I use to run around in the backyard playin' catch with my dad Hoppin' the fence to play with neighborhood kids It seemed like every day was good Doin' stupid sh** but never behavin' the way we should A raised Christian influenced as a youth by the crucifix Switched to public education but never did really get used to it In childhood foolishness went from gifted and talented and honor roll To shop liftin' at Conoco, sneakin' in Grouper 6 Nemesis on Nintendo, posted up in the Electronics department at Target All day playin' Genesis demo starvin', shined in the darkness with Kevin And raisin' funds in the parking lot of the supermarket Bummin' change for Laser One Runnin' game on Asians, I'd spend hours takin' tokens Findin' ways to aggravate 'em Beat 'em till the game was broken with Jason, stealin' for me was too easy We use to jack toys, go home, open 'em up, bumpin' Houdini and the Fat Boys Mom strove a trooper, had a crush on Punky Brewster For years I wondered if Fred Savage f**ed with Winnie Cooper I was just a skinny loser, a prepubescent virgin Uncertain and full of question eyes that never seen deception Yes [Hook: UBI] It happened after birth so let's get past the first impression I moved to an urban setting now I'm usin' words for weapons Once pa**ive now turned aggressive, I guess it's the Ces that changed me Rap with the perfect essence expressing most everthing that's Happened since after birth so let's get past the first impression I moved to an urban setting now I'm usin' words for weapons Once pa**ive now turned aggressive, I guess it's the Ces that changed me Rap with the perfect essence expressing what makes me angry [Verse 2: UBI] Yeahh this is that character that I have been waitin' to build That has nothing at all to do with how I'm statin' my sk** Cuz I'll stay screamin' at you cats till I turn gray in the gills I seen you swervin' goin' off the road, so straighten the wheel And while you try to get there first, you know the race isn't real They say when there's a bill there's a way, so why you're wastin' your will I love my memories of my mom and pop but I'm erasing 'em still Took a few shots and I chased 'em with pills Cuz of this spot that I grew up's the only place that I feel I love smashin' out on my bike but always hated the hills Who me, makin' a k**in' I have yet to make one schillin' While some look over my shoulder, just for the sake of stealin' Aware or not they read your brain, I swear to god you'd be amazed Cuz villains these days'll find a way to rape the willin' How many were crushed in rubble, just couldn't escape the buildin' In war, there is no winner consider the fate of children Powerless says we're housin' terrorists within our borders Men in camouflage and automatic weapons on every corner Bombin' the block outside got you thinkin' this can't be real Now you feelin' the way the kids in Afghanistan feel [Hook: UBI] A lot's happened since after birth so let's get past the first impression I moved to an urban setting now I'm usin' words for weapons Once pa**ive now turned aggressive, I guess it's the Ces that changed me Rap with the perfect essence expressing most everthing that's Happened since after birth so let's get past the first impression I moved to an urban setting now I'm usin' words for weapons Once pa**ive now turned aggressive, I guess it's the Ces that changed me Rap with the perfect essence expressing what makes me angry [Verse 3: UBI] Yeah I've grown accustomed what can I say, I know it s**s But it's so close to hell I can almost feel the gates opening up How's that for some motivation after we vote to change it And it's legal the people will see the last of their sober days then We stay oppressed and I'll actually know we're safe when- We raise our voices against the contracts of this covert nation We're faded into black and I'm making my own arrangements Look past your speculation cuz these acts of devastation Will bring back a better nation, keep an eye out for the crack down Try not to act out cuz they'll find your shack on the pat down Crowds now a days too tough to entertain, I don't know why I rap You can watch the world by day by day on C-span and Simulcast I get depressed and run away and numb the pain and sh**'s suppressed Like memories and younger days it hits the chest like love and hate It's give or take but what a way to live a life When men are mice some pickin' Ces You pick a side, whoever pays the better price [Hook: UBI] Come back to Earth so let's get past the first impression I moved to an urban setting now I'm usin' words for weapons Once pa**ive now turned aggressive, I guess it's the Ces that changed me Rap with the perfect essence expressing most everthing that's Happened since after birth so let's get past the first impression I moved to an urban setting now I'm usin' words for weapons Once pa**ive now turned aggressive, I guess it's the Ces that changed me Rap with the perfect essence expressing what makes me angry
