about

A track I recorded with a 25 cent Goodwill microphone, 2 left and right tinny speakers on each side, and my subwoofer turned sideways as I rapped in the middle of it all. Beat was made on something called Musigenesis. Lost it since then. Also recorded while under the influence. I would say it went well.

Shows where I was back then, but also a perfect for this stage of the mixtape.

Enjoy.

lyrics

I see everybdody now gettin things riiight,
but wut about my liiife?/
ye I can make you smile,
but I havent smiled in a while,
what about my life?/
and I just seen another opportunity pass,
seeing life through this broken glass,
well right here is the breakthrough,
its time for the sunriiise

everything is sunny!
everything is bright!
nothings going wrong with my life/
everybody's paid,
everybody's gettin laid,
and in the end,
we're still just friends/
I wish this was how it go,
but I'm going back to reality and I got y'all in tow/
like a bull rush behind me,
its ok if I fall and u trample my brain,
cuz,
I'm,
already insane,/
I live life on the edge of danger,
J-walk red lights,
take candy from strangers,
I cut myself with paper,
100$ bills covered in blood,
white Air Forces,
two toned with a hint of mud/
when u put in the light,
but thats alright,
cuz I forever walk the unbeaten path,
but now I realized I wont last,
I wont last (repeat many times)
so I pick up that glass,
pick up that glass now...
then I put that shit down....//



since a little baby I was greedy,
tired of chillin in the womb,
I decided on an early greeting,
hello Ms. Mom nice to meet thee,
I've already cried,
please tell Mr.Doctorman to stop beating me/
I knew God was mad and wudnt cut me any slack,
cuz I was a kid full of sin my time in the womb cud back it up,
I entered into this world I covet,
but I am not above it/
God, goddamn! God man! why you gotta grab me out the fire by the legs and throw me in the frying pan!
He said: "N*gga you been GOD SMACKED! haha now tell 'em God's back!",
I didn't even have time to holla back,
Mr. Almighty spite me wit a heart attack/
now you know I regret not comin later,
layin on my back attached to some tubes in an incubator/
(draw this last bar out)
breathing like Darth Vader,
seeing my world through a glass,
I guess life come full circle dont it??
haha I'll drink to that!
but dont condone it.../
naw dont condone it//



now I may be wrong but arent most babies cute?
I wasnt alot to look at,
upon my salute but/
when you see something cute dont u wanna pet it?
huh daddy?
its like you saw the head and said forget it/
and I,
really couldn't be bothered with this guy,
I just moved on,
and lived my life/
I desensitized myself to my plight,
I had mommmy,
she loved me and that was alright/
till she got sick and I had to take care of her,
pretty much like a baby,
roles reversed strangely/
and then I had no help,
even the doctors put her on the shelf/
well,
I put her in the chair and wheeled over there,
up the hills out the doors and always with care/
and all the time he was a few miles away,
and he cudnt even pay/
or call,
to see if I was alright,
"Do you need some help tonight?",
"Grab all the clothes I'll drive you to the laundromat,
and we'll talk",
but he just turned me to a doormat and he walked/
well guess what?
this doormat aint sayin "WELCOME",
oh you're a Christian man?
you have a son go help him,
you go to church and stand and raise your hands,
and you now have the audacity to call yourself a man!?/
well sit down here,
clean ya ears of all that Jesus shit,
ya listenin?
I just need you to hear this quick,
you just stay where you are and dont come near to me,
Ima work for my money,
legal,
no conspiracies/
no drunk driving tonight,
I put down that glass I quit,
Ima grab the finest car,
and drive it out the dealership,
and aim for the highest and drive...
into the sunriiiise//
