[Salomon Faye, Eryn Allen Kane, J. Cole - Live And Learn lyrics]
My mind spills to thrills and fills the void
Kills the noise
You know the game build, destroy, Tetris
Before you turn the phone off
But then the phone dies
There's no break for a black guy
Blacklisted before they even wrote shit
Mad gifted before we even spoke the word
In the beginning
It was just a word and the word was
With God and the word was Allah
Voilà but it ain't magic niggas
Die but it ain't tragic
Its more natural new birth
What if heaven is the new Earth?
What if God is a bluebird
That can't fly because it knows
It'self as the sky?
I used to see rain as the proof
I can cry with no fear
But now I gotta hide my own
Tears so I don't seem weak
I don't even want to see me
Cause I don't know that nigga
I don't owe that nigga to tell the truth
Something to show that nigga
That's why I love you because
I know who you are that's why I look at you
Like I seen you before
I recognize you from a hole in the wall
That I punched in the wall
Because I'm so pissed off
I meditate and try to calm myself
I know anger only harm myself
False alarm myself
So many books I read to warn myself
I want more myself
Look at in the mirror and I scorn myself
Who am I? And am I really even here?
I think it's time for me to disappear
Cause, I've been living way too long
In the right or the wrong
I'm as small as a fly with
The shit that I'm on so get going get lost
I don't want to be found
You won't see me if you looking around
Cause, I've been living way too long
In the right or the wrong
I'm as small as a fly with
The shit that I'm on so get going get lost
I don't want to be found
You won't see me if you looking around
Feel my pain feel my pain
Feel my force walk into the flame
It will change you of course
Don't be scared
I will be there where you are you don't know
It's ok where you go
Yesterday I saw the ending of the end
And I'm in it again everything is on spin
I'm just caught in the wind
Protectless, breathless, stress less
The high got the Faye kinda restless
Second guessing intent directions
I get a kick out of the irony of my blessings
Humerous in life
Enormous as my sacrifice so it seems
Then again but a dollar and a dream and
A model for the team
Or a slogan for the soul
How you living your just
Another soldier right?
What I'm fighting for don't even
Know what I'm writing for
Man this ain't even real life no more
I'm on the edge and I got nothing but a song
I'm lucky if the birds sing along
Cause, I've been living way too long
In the right or the wrong
I'm as small as a fly with the shit I'm on
So keep going get lost
I don't want to be found
You won't see me if you looking around
Cause, I've been living way too long
In the right or the wrong
I'm as small as a fly with the shit I'm on
So keep going get lost
I don't want to be found
You won't see me if you looking around
Feel my pain feel my pain
Feel my force walk into the flame
It will change you of course
Don't be scared
I will be there where you are you don't know
