IAMe, SMOKE M2D6 - Bright Side lyrics

Everything to lose and nothing to gain
Except a little loot, the fans, and the fame
Success can come with time
But, I'm already the richest man alive
But this can only be realized
When I'm not working
Better yet, not grinding
When I'm not paying what
They want of unleaded
When I'm not driving across town, late
Hitting every stop light it's rush hour
(and there's road construction) this
City's not right
But, it's the system, the wages that I make
The paper that I chase that preoccupies me
It's why I'm always late
I mean, what's a deadline
When we'll all be dead lying
In the ground someday somehow, someway
There's six million to choose from
For those who gonna choose
The rest still gonna lose 'em
(If I had to choose) I'd
Rather let it surprise me

We win some, we lose some
(There's a bright side inside of me)
We lose some and then some
I'm trying to let it all out
But darkness surrounds the hearts
Of the crowd
I hesitate to put my head to the crown
We win some, we lose some
(There's a bright side inside of me)
We lose some and then some
I'm trying to let it all out
But darkness abounds in the
Hearts of the crowd
I refuse to put my head in the ground

I'm trying to make sense
Out of the senseless, sickness
Gone viral, violent, psycho, viscous
So malnourished, intense, sadistic
Thirst, lust left love in a puddle of blood
Blank looks, kinda suspicious
Need more data from souls
Love related ain't related enough
Plus this bubble's inflated, fit in the bus
Crushed, paradigm shift
Must maintain in the face of deceit
Defeat demons
Deplete heathens or humans of hate
It takes a nation of millions
To make resources deflate
Innate, the composition is state of mind
There's the blizzard in my belly
And barely embedded in bass in reality
Makeshift made of my side instead of maze
And our tendency to Dance Dance
Revolution to the grave
Getting down to the meltdown
Fanning the blaze

We win some, we lose some
(There's a bright side inside of me)
We lose some and then some
I'm trying to let it all out
But darkness surrounds the hearts
Of the crowd
I hesitate to put my head to the crown
We win some, we lose some
(There's a bright side inside of me)
We lose some and then some
I'm trying to let it all out
But darkness abounds in the
Hearts of the crowd
I refuse to put my head in the ground

I meditate, try to remove myself
But there's too much at stake for
Me to lose myself completely
And I ain't scared to die
I know what'll hurt most is
Having to sever ties
And I hate to say goodbyes
I hate the handshakes, the daps
And hugs as time passes us by
But death is a right of passage
One day we all let go of
Our grasp and lose ourselves completely
Hard in the situation
It's part of the hesitation
Blooming and booming from the basement
Taste it
Life's hatred watered down with science
Matrix god is love and love is life, Amadeus
But y'all only listen to Drake
Chalk it up to one of many mistakes
And let it break what ya
Build in vein on temporary terrain
Not afraid to leave
But too terrified to stay

We win some, we lose some
(There's a bright side inside of me)
We lose some and then some
I'm trying to let it all out
But darkness surrounds the hearts
Of the crowd
I hesitate to put my head to the crown
We win some, we lose some
(There's a bright side inside of me)
We lose some and then some
I'm trying to let it all out
But darkness abounds in the
Hearts of the crowd
I refuse to put my head in the ground
(There's a bright side inside of me)
I'm trying to let it all out
But darkness surrounds the hearts
Of the crowd
I hesitate to put my head to the crown
(There's a bright side inside of me)
I'm trying to let it all out
But darkness abounds in the
Hearts of the crowd
I refuse to put my head in the ground
