letra de red lights&stop signs. - elijahp

dream chasing, hardly sleep though
i’m not self-made, i ain’t ross or meek
peep; these words, and how they flow- deep, out of the depths of my heart in this cold world;
slow money, fast girls
chalk lines by the “do not walk” signs
that blood money spilled
so they k!ll
never told we meant for something other than ball or tryna get a deal
so we all try to rap or claim “ball is life” for real
that’s real
anyways to get a quick pay
but simpl-ay …

some got it
and some missed it
to some of em’ “rest in peace”
some of em’ sit in prison
hope you home soon
those homies
and when they let you out
got a couple forties then its back on the street
and you owe me

bad cycles that be hard to shake
i love my mom too much; don’t want her heart to break
that’s why i like to thank god each and every day – that i’m still in his grace
tryna stay in this place, happy i’m home
but temptation can creep in, make you sad you alone
that’s when you pick up your phone
call up some badd chicks
talk sweet but never have intentions you’d be glad wit
cause when they come over; the draws on the ground
the ones in the air
it’s all going – down
with no regrets
no love, just s-x
all l-st, say we young
so we ain’t ready for rings yet
unless she’s calling my phone
telling me that she’s tired of being alone
will i give in?
or will i stay at home?
and that’s just how the game goes, another scene from our lives
but no movie flow
we really live it
i’ve seen the visions…

alcoholic visions
trippin’
having premonitions
who’s to say you’re living ?
just because you’re living
my generation’s always all up in the clouds, so they get it
“get high, to get by.”
rather they on a high flight than a drunk drive
rather they are burning trees than burning bridges
it’s just me and my crew, the same ones from middle school;
that i used to cut cl-ss with
out to eat – would dine n dash with
stupid stuff p-ssed the owner off like “you freaking b-st-rds!”
little did he know, that was true
i hit the booth with all this pain
with this bottle, i’m inane
because i know it’s stupid
drinking tryna drown my sorrows but i know it’s foolish
& my heart is still stuck on sarah but cupid’s ruthless
never gave it a chance
can feel sweat on my hands-
just writing. .

just writing
so my mind is everywhere
it’s never clear
i’m always up
with thoughts like floods
with no barrier
even mariah couldn’t carry me
too much weight on my shoulders
steady tryna figure out who i’m tryna be
hardly get to church so is it heaven, or h-ll that i’ll most likely see?
because this temptation is always tryna bury me
l-st, greed, and envy
the deadly 3
my biggest enemies
and i keep letting them in;
again: “lord, i swear i’ll never sin
again. . . ”

and it goes on and goes on
life
the months just roll on
roll on
big dreams, small city
lot of pain, no pity
they tell you play through it
“no pain, no gain.”
insane; all in the membrane
but as we stay in shape tryna climb these hills
there’s somebody else somewhere that would k!ll – for our spot
so our dreams can’t stop
our vision can’t flop
fast break!
i’m lebron james. dwayne wade
bout to set the tempo
raise the heat and if you got that reference:

this moment will be ours forever … ✌️
