Life In The Flesh

[Intro]
Living this flesh life to the next life
(Tell them bury me in to rest with these eyes on my chest)
Can't wait to be reincarnated
(Even when I'm rotting you'll see that I stay fresh
This is life in the flesh
See we don't even know what's gonna happen after death in this life in the flesh
So life it to the fullest, never less)

[Verse 1]
A child was born, into a world scoundrel in form
Torn from his mothers fingers to be pricked by their forms
Adorned name brand labels, baby Jesus fresh out of the stables
Coming home from school and getting taught by cable
Just another slave, this is Aesop's fable
Tryna turn the tables, but not sure if I'll be able
Been naive from the navel, crooked from the cradle kinda shot
I never turn my mother crazy post nettle
When the world is so unstable
It's life in the flesh can be a challenge
Blinded on a tight rope, just tryna find a balance
Got no high hopes
We selling weed to who we supply coke
Moving up the ranks and then we buy and broke
Kaleidoscope views
These twisted realities on the news
Been desensitized, gentrified and caught up in the enterprise
So many still can't sense the lies
But before death, did we pass our test and now we spend our lives
This is life in the flesh

[Pre-verse]
Skin, bone and blood but get my powers from above
This is life in the flesh
I'm just skin, bone and blood but get my powers from above

[Verse 2]
So as my spliff gets Sparta
Catch the vibes off the dark
Like beaming for my stars
Yin and yang, I'm half and half
Down that path, that I step along
I need my weapons strong
I put echelons been trying to get me bodied for my second song
I'm not like none of these rappers that you follow
When it comes to Babylon, you best believe my heart is hollow
Ca' I swallow what they chew, and I can't stomach what they do
Time to kick them off their spot and watch them plummet with their crew
It's the big bad wolf so who are you
Won't find me in no sheep clothing
Real lyricist don't need no cheap slogans
Assassinate the shogun, I stand alone like I was Logan
In comparison to man you just a rodent
Spitting that powerful substance like solvents
Fire bars, my lava stays molten
High as grade, I made potent
So tell them abouta me like I am the sultan
My spirits been awoken, third eye sharp is never broken
This is life in the flesh

[Outro]
See this life in the flesh
Skin, bone and blood but get my powers from above
Living the life in the flesh
Yes, life in the flesh
I'm just skin, bone and blood but get my powers from above

This is life in the flesh
Tell them bury me in to rest with these eyes on my chest
In this life in the flesh
Even when I'm rotting you'll see that I stay fresh
This is life in the flesh
See we don't even know what's gonna happen after death
In this life in the flesh
So life it the fullest never less

Life in the flesh
Life in the flesh
