MURS & SLUG - Marvin Gaye lyrics

rate me

Now my heart is a pure as Sanyika Shakur

Homegrown in the crips, a gangbangers galore

Set sail for many shores, still a product of war

Shell shocked from the block, rock hard to the core

Though I tried to give you more on this mic when I spitting this

List some nines, some techs and some abject living

I'm a have that ribbon in the sky wrapped around my finger

As a reminder of times, kind of when love lingered

Singer, songwriter, smooth talker, street figher

Hauling heavy words to make the beat seem lighter

I'm a writer of riches rippin, rebelling the system

Repellin rep because I rejected what's in em

Persecution of your peers is the violence of business

So them in-crowd functions, I would never attend them

By myself, backpack, dreadlocks and some denim

I was never deemed down cause I dared to be different

I used to go out to them partys, get weeded and stand around

Cause I was too nervous to be myself and get down

Now it's no more standing my back up against the wall

I got myself together, now I'm ready to ball

"Bring out the love in me"

I wake up every morning

My mission: fulfill the dream

I wake myself upon the decision: to kill the scream

To kill the screen

I wake up every morning

My mission: fulfill the dream

I wake myself upon the decision: to kill the scream

I still hear it ringing in my ears when the light's on

Tighten the hold and light the bowl of this pipe bomb

See the dawn, self worth turned to earth

It's my song but I'm still trying to learn the words

Passion excessive, passive agressive

The first one to strike, the last one to exit

Castles unprotected, capture the princess

Fasten the seatbelt, drive and count the inches

Not so sure mom would be proud

If she knew how many times I've had to hide from these clouds

Don't really know if Jacob would understand

How daddy uses women to make him feel like a man

Open apology for anyone who follows me

Didn't realise I was a self-made power freak

When I get home I put it back together

Filled up the void, sewn up the sever

And her tears keep raining on the pillows that I pillage

But it's still entertaining alcoholics in my village

And when I'm finished, I'm sitting in silence

Just me in the corner of the room whistling my shit

Fulfill the dream - to kill the scream
