Listen up,

I made some bad decisions,
And I could blame it on my youth,
my environment, leadership
or just shitty vision,

But I'm a life liver,
And I'ma live until my LIGHT stops being distributed by the LIGHT-giver

Real war VETERUN,
Wish I was a BETTA SUN
Born a black Jedi but I'll probably die a PEDAWUN,

I put the pen to paper
Then dare the devil to cross
The line I drew at the equator
Wit my light saber,

I throw the backpack on,
And hit the road
They lookin' for me
Homie askin' "Is his backpack gone?"

Yup,

I hit the road while y'all was sleeping through the sunrise,
Purple/yellow/violets, never know what colors you GON' see
When taking a moment and staring up into the early morning sunrise,
Into my sun's eyes,

I take a puff and inhale the clean clear kush air,
I'm on my way-I'm on my way yup gone..

Chorus

And so they say,
Live today because tomorrow ain't promised
That's the reason why I rhyme this way
So I can fly away

And so they say,
Live today because tomorrow ain't promised
That's the reason why I rhyme this way
So I can fly away

Verse Two

I been a loner for as long I remember,
Walking on my toes wit a pocket fulla woes
Gotta smile like summer and a heart like winter
Colder than the day whence I was born in November

Blood kept me covered but the thugs stayed around em',
City school, rec center, street corner crowdin',
Sheets of the Talmud, stuffed in a three-ring binder
Next to old math homework and Valium,

It's hard to swallow when your heart's fulla sorrow
And you busy chokin' yesteryear's tears back tomorrow,
Then I found music and I swore it was my niche,
tryna ditch a batch of memories that always seem to follow,

Pity to wallow in? No thank you I'm a veteran,
Pressure on my brain but ain't poppin' no excederine
I take a puff and inhale the clean clear kush air,
I'm on my way-I'm on my way yup gone..

Chorus

And so they say,
Live today because tomorrow ain't promised
That's the reason why I rhyme this way
So I can fly away

And so they say,
Live today because tomorrow ain't promised
That's the reason why I rhyme this way
So I can fly away
