24ours (Day & Night)

[Intro: Cambatta]
All I got is 24 hours
(Wait, wait, wait, wait)
(All a nigga' got)
Look
(That's all a nigga' got, all a nigga' got)

[Verse 1: Cambatta]
All I got is 24 hours (yeah)
Live and die in 24 hours (lord)
What is really age but the same day
Looping in a phase of just 24 hours? (what)
If your neighbor does more with the same 24
Got to ask yourself: what is your power? (God)
Are you living for the struggle or honor? (yeah)
Shit'll make a nigga summon forefathers (Yah)
I’m just thankful that my mother brought Batta
Should've brung a double dozen more flowers
Uppers or downers, blunt of pure sour
Smoking through my last 24 hours
Same sun and moon tug of war drama
Feel the tears, look above and saw showers
I just wish I had a hundred more hours
God's generous, but 24's modest
What we got a budget for
Can I borrow some of yours?
Spend it quick as 24 dollars
Gone faster than my mother's warm chowder
I can feel the tender loving pure power
His 24, her 24, their 24 - which 24's ours?
Would you trade your money for hours?
Or trade your hours for a couple more commas?

[Chorus: Cambatta]
First you see the dark and then you see the light
Then you see the day and then you see the night
I'm just narrating what I see inside
Thanking my creator I can read and write
Stumbled on my path I think I need a ride
Struggling and sadness bring my evil side
Swallowing my ego and I eat my pride
Fighting till the end until I see the prize

[Verse 2: Cambatta]
All I got is day and night...
...Right?
Night is dark, day is light
I say good morning, then I say goodnight
Day and night
My only options in the game of life
Play the dice
You'll lose them both if you don’t pay the price
Night is black, and day is white
Kind of racial, right?
Sundial is made of ice like a glacier might
Calibrated the way I like
Count to 24 hour hand
Rotate it twice
Day'll change to night
Mother Nature, and Father Time
Had a baby and they named it Christ
They' only son, I hope they raise him right
Daughter, too - her name is Luna but they ain't alike
When son is down, you see her rising to her greatest height
Feel like E.T. on his flying levitating bike
You'll see my shadow on the moon 'cause I was taking flight
Living like I’m made to shine (yeah)

[Chorus: Cambatta]
First you see the dark and then you see the light
Then you see the day and then you see the night
I'm just narrating what I see inside
Thanking my creator I can read and write
Stumbled on my path I think I need a ride
Struggling and sadness bring my evil side
Swallowing my ego and I eat my pride
Fighting till the end until I see the prize

[Verse 3: Red Pillar]
I'll be mad if you ain't at my wake
In a Wraith blasting Faith and some Pastor Mase
Throwing bricks wrapped in mask and tape
Take me from the 5th down to Astor Place
Let me see the grin on the bastard's face
I'm coming from the kin of the master race
Next to Nipsey in the master's race
I know the code, so I cracked the safe
Bury me with Sebi in his casket late
And we' owners so our master's safe
Bury me in polo with a gat on waist
Victory is sweet I need the aftertaste

[Chorus: Cambatta]
First you see the dark and then you see the light
Then you see the day and then you see the night
I'm just narrating what I see inside
Thanking my creator I can read and write
Stumbled on my path I think I need a ride
Struggling and sadness bring my evil side
Swallowing my ego and I eat my pride
Fighting till the end until I see the prize
