Normal Life


 

Open your eyes and be wise.

Our world is full of lies and loud cries.

Many roll the dice but end up inhaling the toxic spice

I trying to be wise, the struggles not nice.

Many people are starting to despise that Im not the type to reach for the pipe.

Im hanging with the whites, my dream is out of sight but money is tight.

I just want an opportunity to get a slice of a normal life.

I prey to my Jesus Christ to lead me to the bright light.

It's a fight but,

I just might get a normal life.
