Ab-Soul

Beautiful Death
[Verse 1: Ab-Soul] My only fear is fear itself I ain't afraid to die, more afraid of myself Niggas looking at me like I don't hear myself Like I don't know pain -- I been here myself (This life will drive you crazy) Only if you let it I'm just an American expressin' - Just give me credit Won't be surprised if before I rise, I'm beheaded These are the days of our lives I go to sleep thinkin' I may never wake up In this reality, at least I keep my bed made up I just wish they all could see what I can see If we could stop it with the violence and apply a lil' logic I believe We could thrive to be a promise, see -- Civilisation We may die individually, but as a nation We'll rise, nigga, change lives, nigga Break ties from the everyday lies, nigga It's not time, until it's our time [Hook] (Don't be so afraid to die) Until it's our time (Don't be so afraid to die) It's not time, till it's our time Songtexte(Cause we'll never die) [Verse 2: Ab Soul] All I see is confusion and chaos Blatant disorder, authorities pickin' on the minorities Unfortunately, the land of the free has little to offer me And got me awfully thinkin' about offin' me I wake up in the morning and I ask myself Is life worth living, should I blast myself? I'm tired of being broke and even worse The upper class acts like they want me off this earth (This life will drive you crazy) Only if you allow it That's only if you a coward and you're sure to get devoured To no avail, tuck your tail, and all you do is give them power Who's gonna take a stand, who's gonna be a man? Who do you work for? Please help me understand You could be the victor in a situation We may die individual, but as a nation We'll rise, nigga, change lives, nigga Break ties from the everyday lies, nigga It's not time, until it's our time [Hook] [Verse 3: Punch] Pardon my immortality I'm Martin Luther shooting back at the balcony Escapin' in a Lorraine until they call in the cavalry Out from 184, oh lord, nobody blast for me If it takes me to be a martyr to push the envelope farther Nigga show me to the slaughter I gladly sacrifice what is percieved Sow my seed, so my seed can live its dreams My spittin' image, see my stitching in his genes According to my likeness, this breath of life is priceless My enlightenment's the ancient Chaldeans Penetratin' America's culture, to its very being It's not political though, it's more critical Spiritual warfare, you can murder me in the physical But I advise y'all to keep me alive In the event of my demise, I'll be bigger than life Beautiful death, nigga [Bridge: Ab-Soul] Tragedy after tragedy, it's sad to see America killin' her babies like Casey Anthony We try, we try to cope and hold on to our sanity Poppin' ecstasy will surely shorten life expectancy We travel the seven seas in hopes for a little peace We promised pie in the sky, I'm dyin' to get a piece Put down your piece, I'm wish you all a beautiful death Peace Aus Songtexte Mania
