Young Taylor
Now Playing
Reporting live with the soul food
Kept it pent up for too long so now im going vocal
Picked a pen up 'cause im sick and tired of being hopeful
Done with all these moguls
Claiming that they know you
I'll follow my own route
Spending all of my Nights tryna dream of better Days when
Life could be more painless
Anytime I look around I always see the same things
Thoughts of people enslaved
By a life that left them brainless
Said there ain’t another way
And you gotta learn to face it
This is why Im goin’ outta my way just to say this
Im tryna make some changes
If you got a dream then homie go out there and chase it
But life’s a long race and
You gotta learn to pace it
We’re not all designed
Just to live the same kinda lives
Workin’ hard for 95’s
Then we all work 9-5’s
Man, what if nothing goes right
Then what are we all left with
Always worried bout your left wrist
It has been ingrained in us to always be invested
With a way of live we blindly pass on to the next kid
We’ve got all the answers but aren’t asking the right questions
Only told to care about what is being tested
That’s why I protest it
They get too much credit
'Cause we never check it
So don’t get all surprised
When you see a suicide
It’s known as do or die
Know their whole life on the line
Thinkin' justice but you don't know what just is
And therein lies the whole crisis
Define what the price is
Of a life so enlightened
Take pride 'cause u revised it
Can’t hide you applied it
Bias leave you blinded
The silence implied it
Misguided suppliers
The replies don’t deprive it
Did someone have to die just for you to televise it
Know we’re not united
You the reason we divided
This a real homicide and
We know you love your tests so lets see you testify this

This how I’m feelin on the daily
Lately I’ve been going crazy
Maybe some of you relatin’
Maybe you may even hate me
Ill pay no mind to any hatin’
'Cause im tired of all the fakin’
Not much to lose, but a whole lot for the takin’
If dreams come true, then I hope you all awaken
I speak of truth, for anyone that’s been waiting
Out on a mission, 'cause there's more than what appears
A different vision, living life with no fears
Blurry now, you'll see it in 3 years
Dont worry bout them be your own pioneer
Get out of routines, why we all so imprisoned?
Much to be seen, and it's not all television
I'm done with screens, and done with repitition
And you
Can either hate or love it
But man this is just something
I was meant to come up with
Im goin’ all in or nothing
Swear we have nothing in common
You pourin’ shots of your rum in
I pour my heart in becoming
Someone who can provide a new lens
Here's a penny for your thoughts
Hope you start to make sense
And with these words, I only hope to inspire you
Settle your nerves, follow the intuition deep inside of you
One thing I’ve learned, can’t let no one else decide for you
Find your own worth, and let everyone else admire you

'Cause see
No matter how good a brother is at his sentences
They always tryna hit him w a different type of sentencin’
Complicate his projects, Take away his percentages
Water down the content, Till they drown away all the messages
This recklessness
Got the whole game on strings
Moved houses 3 times still addressin’ the same things
That’s why i took to writing to see what this game brings
'Cause man, i’ve got a different kind of vision for this world
They a single picture is worth a thousand words
But imagine the murals i paint with a couple of verbs
Can’t say I’ve lived a lot but there’s much that I have learned
So I put all my brains thoughts into this body of work
And on the day this thing drop I pray to God it gets heard
