Has-Lo - Sub-Ether lyrics
rate me(Verse)
You think I’m soft if I touch on emotion
And I ain’t on my 3rd bullet for heat holdin'
Over in Dover, DE with malik, rollin'
Politickin on getting on, havin no ends
And platinum respect vs. your creative freedom
A struggle, it leaves men fatigued and weakened
So what your allegiance?
The art or the 8 o’clock freespin
Tap your inner region, reach in
Visualize the being inside and see him
Figure out where you begin and where the street ends
I may be god on earth but not a judge
My grip is tight like d-rugs, I seek love
It’s summer in, another year past in the week of
A day in the life of a struggling youth
Who would rather die than turn a blind eye to his roots
He’ll be alright though, his mother’s the proof
Ayo, here’s my exhibit if you wanted some proof
It’s all truth when I speak it up
Gather all the people up
Lead them like smoke signals and beatin drums
To where I’m speakin from
Before I beam you up
(Hook)
I’m goin into Sub-Ether, Sub-Ether Drive
(Verse)
My father’s side say I’m cold and unapproachable
That’s only half of it ‘cause they don’t really know the truth
I’m sayin how could you? I’m like a ghost to you
My heart is stone now and heavy as a boulder too
I feel the sting like the venom of a cobra tooth
To try and deaden the pain of what I’m goin through
I throw some liquor back, I don’t even know the proof
When my desires start becomin' uncontrollable
I need some therapy or somethin to be goin to
But with no one that I can even get open to
Life perpetuates itself…
My only escape is this magnum opus jewel
(Hook)
I’m goin into Sub-Ether, Sub-Ether Drive
(Verse)
A job wants your educational and work history
When they decide visually
Whether they were digging me, or wasn’t really feelin' me
The whole system is grimy and really cheap
And the school board is leavin all your children inadequate
And bein their only option, they have to spit
Unable to cater to his talent as an artist
Or the up and coming actresses up in your neighborhood
But I ain’t really crabbin' it
Givin scholarships to the Ivy League cracker kids
But we’re so used to not havin shit that
Some of us don’t bother workin for it now
You better not ever let your dream get away from you
You gotta do you, them niggas only hang with you
You can’t base your decisions off what they would do
Cause It’s a million ways to get major loot so
Don’t stifle yourself or be limited
But observe and keep listenin'
Cause I’ll find a way, Allah as my witness kid
(Hook)
I’m goin into Sub-Ether, Sub-Ether Drive<br />
