La Coka Nostra, Vinnie Paz - My Universe lyrics
[La Coka Nostra, Vinnie Paz - My Universe lyrics]
A hostile universe? Which is it?
Is it a universe that is
Filled with hostility and anger
And people wanting to hate
Each other and people
Wanting to kill each other
Is that what you see?
Because when you see the world that way
That’s exactly what you will create
For yourself in your life
Yo, stonehearted digital tiger-stripe
My whole squadron invisible sniper type
We living the life just like a movie
But our reality bite you in half
Like a great white bites though your raft
This ain't no cartoon, you're
Shark food, hurry up, swim for the shore
Or wrestle with Jaws if you think
You're built for this war
I was born from a long
Line of cast iron survivalists
Street-wise grind combined with the
Mind of a scientist and a heart of granite
Sharper than diamonds to scar the planet
Inscripted within the star patterns
How the gods planned it
We were put here for a good reason
From the mountain tops to
The highest of Cypress
Hills so the entire world sees it
We put our pain into these words
Breathe life into these bangers
Y'all relate to every verse
And feel our anger feel the love and hate
Feel every emotion possible
Shock you like a suicidal
Explosion in a hospital rock you
Shocking every vital nerve
And killer instinct
Fighting every homicidal urge
That's living within
Every individual cell and molecule
In your body every fiber in your trigger
Finger shooting the shotty
That's the turning point, in other words
The point of no return
Infernally, I've been told that my
Soul will burn for eternity
Answer to a higher power
Truth as far as I'm concerned
You can't tell me nothing motherfucker
It's my universe
The universe is ruled by the strong
The strong prey on the weak
The sky is owned by the dawn
(This is a lesson, so follow me
Let's travel at magnificent speeds
Around the universe)
In this world there's only one way out
Close your eyes then
You're in the lion's den in a state of zazen
The black hearse is occupied
Watch the tires spin
An old man with a whiskey nose and hard chin
Looks across the scene
It's a scene he's seen before
Since a teen he's seen the war
Bullets careening off the walls
To the car that's speeding off
Blood on the asphalt
Families dress in black for the son
They had the mass for
The young man inside the casket this time
That's George far as the old man can see
He got what he asked for
He knew him as a youngin and
He schooled him to the game
His tutelage had brung him till he
Grew to live the same
As an older gangster gentleman but
Barely in his thirties
The whole city was burning
But Georgie kept earning
He was ambitious, too ambitious, man
The kid was so determined
Now he's laying in the casket while
The priest offers a sermon
He let his future rock inside
The cradle of fate
Made a deal with the enemy
That was a fatal mistake
When you are a rat you better watch
What you say to a snake
Or your family will stand around you
While you lay at your wake
See the neighborhood is violent
Mother is silent with loneliness
He fills the priest's coffers and
He offers his condolences
Gets inside his Lincoln while
You presume the worst
You can't tell me nothing, young man
This is my universe
The universe is ruled by the strong
The strong prey on the weak
The sky is owned by the dawn
(This is a lesson, so follow me
Let's travel at magnificent speeds
Around the universe)
