What it means to be alive

Aye….

Look….

My flow is a book,

I’m working hard….

Look how long that it took,

I promised to be,

The one with the keys,

To the future-I’ll shoot you,

If you think im a rook,

Cuz I been moving like a king,

I know the silence I bring,

Because I know-that-I’m-still—the one with the dream,

Dont try to challenge me,

It’s hard enough balancing-,

The anger,

The grief,

The major energies…..

The demons that surround me, and the angels that sing,

The reason that I seem conflicted….

The reason I be flipping through photos and faded pictures,

Thinking of better times,

Back when I ain’t know no different,

The crown Vic’s,

Family reunions and shit………

Who woulda known that memories could be your biggest gift…..

The trick is knowing when to believe and when to be distant…..

Tell me what it means to be alive?

Tell me what it means to always struggle to survive?

Is happiness is a means to be fulfilled through your desires?

I don’t know, but it seems I’m scrutinized,

By the ones cutting eyes,

Because I always tell the truth when others-

Choose to be deceitful,

Honesty….

Missing in action, in current times…..

Tell me what it means to be alive?

Tell me what it means to see through evil and disguises?

(Tell me what it means?)

Tell me what it means to be alive?….

Tell me what it means to always struggle to survive?

(Tell me what it means…..)

(Tell me what it means…..)

(Tell me…..)
