[verse 1]

[paradox]
cheap sneaks on my feet, i proceed to the street
creep with cold shoulders to compete with the heat
keep a low-pro, but know to heed what i see
so i’ll show a sneak peek of the peeps that i meet

[sentence]
front stoop. another morning i been ripped out of bed
can’t flip for a babysitter and the kids are a mess
no rest, except for this five minutes i got
to handle a couple camels before my trip to the job

[paradox]
sidewalk. jive talk and i’m practicing hand styles
aviator raybans, straight playing the man child
stay shaking spray cans to stand atop the ant pile
black book of rap hooks and spots where i ran wild

[swell]
barstool. pretty little chicken’s reppin’ art school
sitting, drinking, living like a cartoon
heart spoon-fueled by the jukebox courage
jack and a half-a-pack. alright, it’s perfect

[hook]
we all dying to live life, trying to slip by
a village of millions, striving to get it right
sit tight, this is a glimpse of the struggle
lost sheep, we the odd pieces of the puzzle
dying to live life, trying to slip by
a village of millions, striving to get it right
sit tight, this is a glimpse of the struggle
lost sheep, we the odd pieces of the puzzle

[verse 2]

[paradox]
corner store. the world’s at war, i reminisce on vietnam
no more women and kids should pay when they release the bombs
we embrace the terror for america “keeping it calm,”
and i’m a veteran who left a limb for the weak and the strong

[sentence]
street corner. got my eye out for a mark i can hit
somebody walking like a target with a pocket to pick
a scam i can run, son, i got a dollar to make
and i can spot ‘em from a block away, it’s all in the face

[paradox]
train station. brain racing, cuz we married at a young age
the very thread we shared was dead and buried by sunday
never complained, faced waves when he was unpaid
now every conversation’s just another jaded gunplay

[swell]
your mom’s house. talking ish, mad disrespectful
drinking all your soda, eating all your pretzels
acting like, “yo, when you gonna get cable?”
with my hand down my pants and my sneakers on the table

[hook]
we all dying to live life, trying to slip by
a village of millions, striving to get it right
sit tight, this is a glimpse of the struggle
lost sheep, we the odd pieces of the puzzle
dying to live life, trying to slip by
a village of millions, striving to get it right
sit tight, this is a glimpse of the struggle
lost sheep, we the odd pieces of the puzzle

[verse 3]

[paradox]
seventh ave. heaven’s path isn’t just a straight road
some stray crooked, now they looking for a scapegoat
roman collar, holy water, pray daily to save souls
but most folks see the robe, snap judgment, case closed

[sentence]
f-train. it ain’t the same as what i remember it’s been
being a cop got more hostile ‘cause the threat level’s red
and i pledged to protect, whether sheik, shaman, or atheist
when a nation’s in danger salvation’s saved for the patriot

[paradox]
park bench. bartend for all the ritzy high cl-ss
self-made, well-paid sipping from the wine gl-ss
casting mattress actresses, every villain typecast
with no fail, c-ke nails, fidgeting for nightcaps

[sentence]
right here. made it, taking it in, on pavement
while the city paints mosaics across its occupants’ faces

[paradox & sentence]
to doc-ment the banquet of comedy and tragedy
playing while we’re fast asleep, to capture each as masterpiece

[hook]
we all dying to live life, trying to slip by
a village of millions, striving to get it right
sit tight, this is a glimpse of the struggle
lost sheep, we the odd pieces of the puzzle
dying to live life, trying to slip by
a village of millions, striving to get it right
sit tight, this is a glimpse of the struggle
lost sheep, we the odd pieces of the puzzle
