Chapters
I don't need to lie no more. Nowadays all I do is shine. Take a breath and ease my mind. She don't cry no more. She tell me that they'll get her high 'cause an angel's supposed to fly. I don't need to lie no more. Said I'll take it if it's mine. I don't stay inside the lines. It ain't 2009 no more. Yeah, I know what's behind that door. Okay, you gotta jump in the swift. The light was dim and this life was sinister. Every day I wake up and breathe. I ain't got it all, but that's all right with me. Take it nice and easy, book a flight to sea. I'll send you back home with a life that's been. My whole team 'bout to figure it out. We ice cold, that's what we know about. The sun's out sometimes. I wish I took a simpler route. Instead of having demons that's as big as my house, I got a ball and learned to dribble and bounce. The party ain't over till they kicking me out. Isn't it funny we can make a lot of money, buy a lot of shit just to feel a lot of ugly? I was yay high in money, just looking for what was looking for me. I don't need to lie no more. Nowadays all I do is shine, take a breath and ease my mind, yeah. And she don't cry no more. Said I get it high 'cause an angel's supposed to fly, and I ain't asking why no more. I said I'll take it if it's mine, I'll stay inside the lines, it ain't 2009 no more. Yeah, I know what's behind that door. Well, they ask me what I'm smiling for. It's 'cause I never felt this high before. It's like I never felt alive before. I'd rather have my peace of mind than war. I said me and you, we ain't that different. I scrubbed the fuck out, but then I came back swinging. Take my time to finish and mind my business. Life ain't a life till you live it. That was digging me a hole big enough to bury my soul. Weight of the world, I got to carry my own, my own. With these arms, I could carry you home even when you sad and alone. And I ain't never in a hurry, so you ain't never got to worry. Even when it's 7:30 and the time is getting low and your heart turns cold, see what behind all them rough turnstones, and I'm a pro when it comes to my job. But mostly I'm just trying to start believing in God. When I make this car, I don't panic, I don't sound the alarm, 'cause I don't need to lie no more. Nowadays all I do is shine, take a breath and ease my mind. Yeah, and she don't cry no more. She tell me that they did that hard 'cause the angels supposed to fly. I ain't asking why no more. I said I'll take the A shine special for you in me. You'll never knew a love, love, love, love, love like this. Gotta be something for me to write this. I said, Queen, I ain't seen you in a minute. I wrote this letter and finally decided to send it. Sun Seal delivered for us. Be the one that makes you happy and that hurts you the most. They say the end is near. It's important not to be close to the Most High. Regardless of what happened, on Him let's rely. There is a light that shines special for you and me.
