Knowledge Medina - Shades of Grey lyrics
rate meFeat High Collide & Reks
[Chorus]
I'm only seeing shades of grey
No light seems to come my way
I'm still trying to ease the pain
What can I say? Must be the road I take
Dear lord, here's my soul to take
Trying to get shine while I'm still awake
I'm only seeing shades of grey
But my words seem to save the day
Yeah, shades of grey make the days longer
Face mistakes aim to change proper
I've raised my daughter right, a great father
Even when the light around me's a shade darker
Well, what you expect when the sun is low
I hope to see what the end of the tunnel holds
I never keep a grip on my past,
I'd rather let it slip through my hands
Man I ain't selling my soul just to get known
But around my way dog ain't no yellow brick roads
Dark train of thought, time to rearrange it
But it's hard when, you never see the seasons changing
Try and merge my lane and I guarantee you that you'll learn my name
Born and raised in the sunshine state, but sometimes it seems like the sun shines great
[Chorus]
I'm only seeing shades of grey
No light seems to come my way
I'm still trying to ease the pain
What can I say? Must be the road I take
Dear lord, here's my soul to take
Trying to get shine while I'm still awake
I'm only seeing shades of grey
But my words seem to save the day
Hey yo, mothers is still crying and brothers is still dying
Crime rising is still climbing, wondering why the sun is still shining
It's real blinding, but sometimes it's shades of grey
In the fun line where the sunshine fades away
TV's a source, it will show you all our...resource
But won't tell you how the police resorts to region corpse
Leaving 3-4 days in the cell, without bail dog
Seems what we're facing is hell
I'm trying to tell y'all, don't think that it's sweet
Like oranges and mangos
Cause on the street the police forces in the rangos
Trying to show in your life line
But my words save the day
Cause every time I write rhymes, my life shines
Spend a lifetime rhyming to the raise sun
Just another day surviving and trying to raise my sons
You find out with your 15 minutes of fame
That all light doesn't glimmer the same
[Chorus]
I'm only seeing shades of grey
No light seems to come my way
I'm still trying to ease the pain
What can I say? Must be the road I take
Dear lord, here's my soul to take
Trying to get shine while I'm still awake
I'm only seeing shades of grey
But my words seem to save the day
What more can I say, about these here grey hairs
Hopped out the day to day wares, the one that be day gears
Celebration of hesitation, the calendar's years
Shadows and spears, afraid of my own alone
Pierce punch the clock, I'm pierce on the block
Fading away, coloring bars in all shadings of grey
Fam first pray my neighbors are say
He lived it up, running them up, a buck 50 to face
You try to replace, this daddy boy had these boys joyous to say
My legacy lives forever, god debts on raising kids to see lights
On darkest alleys, you wanna have me do life
Strange touch they bodies like bullets that stripe you
Pedaling bikes and settling rights
Meddling sight, a monkey bar swing... right
The strife within, let it out for y'all to know the truth commence.
[Chorus]
