Closing Doors Lyrics

Hook
And I don't wanna wait for the moment
But I know if i don't, it'll be gone
And I don't really know where i'm goin'
But I can it feel it pullin' me strong
I know I used to pray every morning..
But lately all my nights are getting long
I know a lot of doors have been closin'..
But maybe that just means that they were wrong

Looking out the window, see the skyline
I come from a city where everyone think “it's my time”
We write rhymes ‘cause they buried in our bloodline and..
Rewrite ties if they tryna see my blood cry

When thugs die, the news don't really show it
It only get delivered to our liver when we po' it
The people in my hood been getting sicker every moment
Society done made us think we our only opponent

I...take my spirit, try to grow it
The only way to know the world is if you really know it..
Take my seed and I sow it..
Fertilize it and mow it..
I realized that evil lies where feeble minds are focused
Ain't no hocus pocus...

They plotting easy...
Plant you in a box and let the rains hit you freely
But little did you know they took the reigns way back in BC
They altered your terrain
So they could drown you in that greasy
Believe me

Like, why you think it ain't no freebies?
My God ain't tell nobody they should charge you for a kiwi
Much less a trip to Fiji
Now homies go to war, you know they green
Like wow Luigi
You said you was fam..
Then you changed it up ‘cause you don't need me

Put that purple on my body if I'm feeling regal
Put that purple in my body because I don't need you
This life done closed so many doors, I forgot how to greet you..
I'm praying that I make it soon
I can't wait for the sequel

I pray I meet my equal..
A counterpart of sorts
The kind that knows her energy
Identified the source
I pray I know myself before I reach that point, of course...
‘Cause I ain't finna sink yo' ship when I go overboard And I can't swim for shit
But I ain't finna fall tho..
I skipped a lot of class
But I was in the hall though..
I know a lil somethin'
Patience is involved
So I gotta take my weight
And wait until I make it small;
Flowing like a waterfall
I got gravity...
I been searching instrumentals for some clarity
I been in and out of caverns
I was up inside the taverns
I was tryna make sure nobody was mad at me

And if I really think about it, I'm just glad to be..
A lot of folks don't ever get to be as mad as me
So even when I struggle, I'ma do it happily
‘Cause I know on the other side ain't no more tragedy

Ain't no Shakespeare
Them niggas don't make spears no mo'
‘Cause they fear the enemy lurking
Heavy weaponry tote
And they feel like reindeer..
Red dots on they nose..
Head shots in the cold;
Ain't nobody growing old

It's a war outside wit di yout dem
And issa war going on wit Jerusalem...
They take the innocent civilians, and recruit them and..
If they refuse you know the government gon' spook them..

They closing doors upon our lifestyle
They tryna sterilize yo mind, it look like white tiles
They lie to you, and then look at you with a bright smile
And make you think all of this suffering gon be worthwhile
So I just keep it versatile
I spit a couple verses while I search within my soul and clean it up
I had to clear bile
I sipped it from a cup
But now I got my chalice..

I fill it up with potions
To rid myself of the malice
And rediscover my balance

Hook
And I don't wanna wait for the moment
But I know if i don't, it'll be gone
And I don't really know where i'm goin'
But I can it feel it pullin' me strong
I know I used to pray every morning..
But lately all my nights are getting long
I know a lot of doors have been closin'..
But maybe that just means that they were wrong
