[Chords , Tonedeff - Days Chasing Days lyrics]
Man I see days chasing days
Everything stays the same
No more night and day
Everything is grey papier maché
Same song on the radio by the same old artist
Same assholes on CNN giving
The same "no comments"
Same he say, she say shit
Grab any given weekday and just
Put it on replay
Ring, ring, rise and shine time to lie
On the couch and watch TV
'til your eyes go blind
Watch the guy in the Gucci
Suit talk about tryin' times
And the guy that sold you the
Gun turn around fighting crime
Days chasin' days, people make mistakes
And don't think solution
They look for somewhere to place the blame
It's Just Days Chasing Days -
Everything stays the same
Enemy's names will change
But their deeds remain in place
What are these arranged mistakes
But a link in the chains of fate
With the singular basic aim to deplete
Us of age and strength
You can flee or embrace this replay of
The Deja scene in The Matrix
But keeping beneath the blankets won't stave
Off seeing the day shift
So, instead of being evasive
I portray 'brave' and I face it
As I watch in amazement
As these paid pricks do this lame shit
And then trade shifts on the same staged hit
'bout fame & dollars
Niggas ain't biting no more
They're just claiming they're paying homage
I'm saying, God must be the illest producer
He fills us with youth
But trims us out before we can
Hear where the sample loops up
Sometimes it makes me wanna say "oh lord"
Sometimes it makes me wanna shout "oh lord"
Sometimes it makes me wanna scream "oh lord"
I'm sick and tired of these days chasin' days
Yo, Chords, man i really hope these
Days'll catch up again
Till then, I'll gnash up the back of my pen
Cause it acts as my last defense
Of my head against these
Sad and tragic events
That happen when history's repeating it'self
Eating it'self for the lack of an end
And I'm tackling trends – It's all misleading
Just gimme 2 pair of my Adidas
And we'll call it even
See, I'm not a mad rapper
I'm just frustrated
To see ya profiting with something you ripped
Off and barely bothered to update it!
So, fuck waiting another 10 years
Till these twerps say
That what I was doing a decade ago is
The reason they rhyme in the first place
Hah! So in a worst-case scenario
I work with a smirked face
And pervert breaks and assertively
Rape your stereo
I see days chasin' days
Everything stays the same
I've seen Jesus become the patron
Saint of a paper chase
I've seen wars justified by one
Verse of Amazing Grace
I've been face to face with the
Devil in the most sacred place
I've seen utopia for what it is a pipe dream
I've seen murderous minds scheme turnin' the
World to a crime scene
Learnt that whether winter, spring
Summer or fall
Empires will plummet and fall to
The ground and crumble apart
So is it me or these Venetian blinds
That keep my mind laggin' like a week behind
Cause all this darkness is
Treatin' me like razorblades
And it's no light all I
See are days chasin' days
Sometimes it makes me wanna say "oh lord"
Sometimes it makes me wanna shout "oh lord"
Sometimes it makes me wanna scream "oh lord"
I'm sick and tired of these days chasin' days
Everything stays the same
No more night and day
Everything is grey papier maché
Same song on the radio by the same old artist
Same assholes on CNN giving
The same "no comments"
Same he say, she say shit
