Thundamentals - Carpe Diem lyrics

Haha, yeah, yeah, yeah
I don't know why all these people want
To wait their life away man
There ain't no time for fooling around
Grab life by the horns, ha ha h- h-

Seize the day seize the day
Seize the day seize the day
Seize the day seize the day seize the day
Seize the day (Grab that shit by the horns)

Born ravenous, broke like poor scavengers
The maverick
Living off dope and raw cabbages
Catalyst armed with a pen and a page
Tryna generate change by the end of the day
Deep into the night
Keep it tight like when I speak into the mic
If I get lucky you might see
Me leaving with your wife
Nah, I'm joking, don't stress, bro
I wouldn't do that, well, unless you said so
Let's go, maybe take it to town
But right now I'm on stage laying it down
Making a vow to the people
Who relate to the sound real recognise real
There's no faking allowed
Instead of playing it out I
Could get in a fold
My sole purpose is taking control
And breaking the mould
Reshaping the art asking
What's happening next?
As the hair stands up on
The back of your necks

I got no need for sorrow or
To rest on my laurels
And I won't seek solace at
The bottom of a bottle
Jes will never grovel for a piece of the pie
'Stead I'll make my own cake
Now I'm eating a slice
The reason I write is precisely
To free my brain
It's like Carpe Diem, so I seize the day
Till I reach the place where dead poets await
I make tracks
If they're whack then I throw 'em away
Start from scratch, most MC's hardly rap
They can't adapt or see past party tracks
So now I'm asking
"What type of art is that?"
We're tryna keep it more realer
Than a heart attack
Cardiac arrest who? Pretenders who
Stress me out talk shit then you best be out
Check me out
I'm here to kick rhymes with mates
Right away, there ain't no time to waste

When things are not what they seem
Artful dodgers are on the scene
Bob and weave till we can't be seen
Until the gang's at your
Gate screaming "Carpe Diem"
When things are not what they seem
Artful dodgers are on the scene
Bob and weave till we can't be seen
Until the gang's at your
Gate screaming "Carpe Diem"

Seize the day seize the day
Seize the day seize the day

"Don't play" "Check it out"
"Check it Check it out"
"yeah, yeah, yeah, seize the day"
"Don't play" "Check it out"
"Check it Check it out" "Listen"
"Listen" "Listen" "Listen"
