The day after


Im so happy we made it
I knew one day we would
All these years of strugglin
Were never understood
Now my eyes are open and I can clearly see
We didnt die for nothin cuz were finally free
Im so happy

My grand be gone after a 103 years of blood sweat and pain
And never complained
The last words that the nurse heard was the song she sang
Died tired of this living thing
Most I knew never made it to drinking age
Sometimes I fight gipp
Should I spend or should I hold on for what tomorrow brings
Fly aint that roll egg, so many lips in my head
Seeing some act up from one tste out the cup
Cant build me up to cut me down
Gipp is in your game, but gipp wont play your game
In the day after...

I been this way since birth
Heaven upon sent a newborn to tell it like he see it
No lies thru the eyes of an angel suggest you dont table
Every angle be obtuse, aint no truce, its war
It wont stop, to compromise wouldnt stop the bloodsheddin
Its armageddon in the streets of each inner city
Aint takin no pity on this unjust callin it trust
Im on the bus starin out of a window
Thankin bout them happy days I had
Over the summer growin up fast to face life and harsh realities
That come wit the territody didnt know when I was young
So many get hung to hang
Take away the bad and bring back
The good that die mostly over bullshit
Takin a gun and pulled it on an innocent friend of mine
That could have been yours
How can I stop the war and all the crime inside the minds thats
Programmed to destroy
From the beginning when will it end...
On the day after judgement will I be ready

Im so happy we made it
I knew one day we would
All these years of strugglin
Were never understood
Now my eyes are open and I can clearly see
We didnt die for nothin cuz were finally free
Im so happy

Meant Id be spoiled rotten
A fin here a fin there but receipts please
For my feet I need... a new pair of hi rollin
But the car aint stolen
Pistol still smokin from herndon homin in on somebody
Gotta pay for restitution with heavily on my mind
Free fom mental debris hose me down
There my physical trame lay returnin to its rightful place
A quest for forgiveness answer...
The death toll talley but my soul was spared
How is your prepared medium rare if you dare disobey
Well done race you the last one to orion star
Smellin like shit in a glass jar
The bomb light years away from earth secure a space for my family
The mother of my first conceived and all the weak relatives
I hurt only...when I laugh
On display afta judge none careless atmosphere
Opportunity knockin answer it knewin you would
Good thangs come to those dat wait...
Took a los on church strait
The nifty fifth whut better place
Fo mo enenmy to hide than behind religion
Done gee seen on I pray for you but I wont follow you to yo end

I know of a place not too far away
That maybe you and I can both go someday
But I gotta make sure cause I aint tryin to stay here
Dont yall realize that the end is so near
But dont have fear cause you still got time
I hope you wanna come when Im done with the rhyme
Let me explain so you wont claim you didnt know
And you can make sure that this is where you wanna go
Its all about preparing yourself for the return
And a trip to your soul is the only way youll learn
But if you choose not to go that aint my concern
I guess in hell youll just have to burn
The devil tell lies and try to trick yo soul to receive it
They tell you that my lord aint coming back and you believe it
Regardless if you listen to me
In the end well see...

Im so happy we made it
I knew one day we would
All these years of strugglin
Were never understood
Now my eyes are open and I can clearly see
We didnt die for nothin cuz were finally free
Im so happy

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
