Don't Speak


i couldn’t repeat who said it

I couldn’t rebirth once I dead it 

But what if it deserves credit 

What if we push out what we need in 

And cover up the truth in the lions skin 

We here to win 

But where we goin

More then half this life not even knowin

Gotta message

Gotta keep it 

Sometimes the rules say you gotta creep it

The weathers nice 

Role some dice 

Smoke this weed to get my head right 

dont come wrong 

can you notice the direction if your head to strong

Can you hear the pace if your mind to gone 

Can you find the sense 

The second making 

Can you trust your own baking 

Can you tell your own story 

read from the outside to the in 

further down the story it gets less blurry

Just gotta take the time to read 

Sometimes a sentence will make you feel a breeze 

Hope I don’t blow you away 

I see all the times I thought you strayed

I see all the times it was hard for you to stay

Can’t run from a shadow 

Its just a shape 

One thing a shadow don’t show 

Is face

At my own pace 

Im make it right

Can’t happen over night
