Mr. Lif - Dawn lyrics

[Verse One] You see my mind gets to clickin' And the light started blinkin' Pen steady leakin' Next thing "Oh we've got a song" And time keeps on slippin' our survival seeming distant, but progression is a lesson And thus we move along And I remember Easter when my Mom gave me that boom box Boxing out the world every time I heard a tune knock Knocking on my door got no response I was lost in a small room in a small apartment in Boston My own universe with verses bouncing off the wall in reverb Pop quiz, do you remember these words? "I'm the King of Rock!" and til this day there is none Back when musicians flaunted styles that hadn't been done And era to treasure I pay homage when I put a pen to The paper, drop a j**el to school you later Vapor catches word matches a**emble thoughts (visions) Wisdom leaking through my pen Speaking volumes Tunes remind me blindly seeing life in 2 dimensions (inventions) Amplifying what I mention Word, syllable, sentence Sent this to a million folks I never met They regard it as an ancient epithet And they haven't even read it yet Etiquette pertaining to predicate My actions attracting interactions from factions seeking rations Cash and j**els escape me as I walk the streets faintly Panicking lately Usually a calm Brother I suffer, from the stress and duress of the windows that I see closing Never know which ones will be open And I keep hoping for a little rest But doesn't seem to be in my cards So I wake up and I work hard Hardly sleeping Fans needing more of the raw They tell me never stop Well I can't promise I'll forever drop However by request From your favorite chef Another rhyme written near d**h A data platter served best On a sunny day drive with some weed in your chest Or in the dead of winter when you've got some time to invest More or less horrorfest awaits those who hesitate And miss their calling in life This time it's too late But for now Recognize that God bless the child With style / support my records Keep me on file And I'll bring forth With sincerity of course Some descriptions of my missions as I'm plotting my course [Hook] It's the end of an era But the dawning of a brand new age Live your life inside these brand new days Though they tell you it's terror It's the dawning of a brand new age Move forward in these brand new days Take a look in the mirror Love yourself inside these brand new days If you don't, you may molt and decay Though they tell you it's terror How I know it? It was wrote on my page Live your life inside these brand new days
