Open My Eyes Lyrics

[Intro: Escrol]
D [?], what up man?
G'yeah, another Bender classic
Selfdriven
Addaboe
Ha, yeah, shit
Yo

[Verse 1: Escrol]
I'm closing my eyes and over the time I think I'm closer to dying than closer to living
I wanna make sober decisions and blow like the 4th of July with the flows that I'm spitting
My rhymes are like blowing a pipe of coke in ya' kitchen
I'm over the limit, I'm close to the cliff I'm posted the edge I hold my position, smoking the ism I'm quick to the test
The kush and the cess but I'm focused to get it
So broke through the prison, at night times I'm like ghosts in the visions
I charge like motors and pistons on rowers or [?]
So I open my eyes and hope for the time we soak in the riches
When we're older and living, beholding the wisdom
In Ottawa the 613, it's cold in the winter
I'm walking a line to talk with a swine that's shocking ya' mind
I'm Rocky in 5 when stopping you guys at the drop of a dime
Come on, I'm on for ya' life and most of the time I let it soak in and listen
Ain't the cobra it's stricken
Sometimes in life it's hard to decide
And even harder at times when I put my heart on the line and still get a scar from behind
But lately depression got me boxing like a Mercedes compressor and it's sick that I'm starting my life here

[Chorus: *samples*]
"Travel through eons, mentally they spit it viciously"
"Follow all ya' dreams without no compromising"
"Travel through eons, mentally they spit it viciously"
"Keep ya' crew tight 'cause that's ya' only fam"
"Travel through eons, mentally they spit it viciously"
"And never let a jealous cat ruin ya' plans"
"Travel through eons, mentally they spit it viciously"
"Respect the women and be ya' own man"

[Verse 2: Bender]
The seasons have changed, neighbors seem estranged in these days
They building their fences higher, locking chains in the gate
And the paper crusade got warheads aimed at our face
We force-fed stereotypes through radio waves
When burial rites are skipped to soccer stadium greys
Prepare for the night, terror's in flight with aerial raids
I carry a mic my brother hold a pair of grenades
'Cause he's scared of the fight, well fear's feeding air to the flames
Been staying put in my neighborhood but take a look around it I don't recognize a soul I'm embarrassed to say
And so I guess it's time to go but every year around this time's when I get tempted by the road but just don't know where I could stray
You see my edges might explode 'cause when it's 25 below I can't cope
Only leaving the crib for rap shows
But y'all can't overstand until you walk in these shoes
Baby Beirut way down to mini-Mogadishu

[Chorus: *samples*]
"Travel through eons, mentally they spit it viciously"
"Follow all ya' dreams without no compromising"
"Travel through eons, mentally they spit it viciously"
"Keep ya' crew tight 'cause that's ya' only fam"
"Travel through eons, mentally they spit it viciously"
"And never let a jealous cat ruin ya' plans"
"Travel through eons, mentally they spit it viciously"
"Respect the women and be ya' own man"
