Arik Peace - Certified Life Lyrics

Arik Peace raps?
Nah that shit don't sound right
I've redesigned my map and
Now I've stepped into the light
Judge me, I'm a menace
But my future seems bright
Welcome to my sentence
This is certified life
I'm way up north
You don't know about ice
Raised off de la soul
And a dog named Phife
Better buckle up kid
I'm about to take flight
Ashamed of what I hid
So welcome to my life
Swinging for the fence
Feeling like I'm babe Ruth
Change ringing no cents
Coming off a lost youth
Linking truth in the booth
Yeah you know how we do
No you don't, that's the point
But I'm looking to improve
Marry patience with my cadence
And you'll get a part 2
Not complacent, always faded
Keep on hating, I'm immune
Hate surveillance, also status
But it seems you can't choose
I'm amazing, I'll be famous
I'm a bomb you can't defuse
Head in the clouds
Dreams
Mixed with
Reality
Minding my own
While
Rhyming
For free
Give it up please
For Arik King of peace
Not a sell out
No doubt, f*ck with me
Want all this cash
So I gotta keep going
Gone in a flash
And I still left her still moaning
Making yall laugh
But no I'm not joking
White mountain ash
Money trees we be growing
Arik Peace raps?
Nah that shit don't sound right
I've redesigned my map and
Now I've stepped into the light
Judge me, I'm a menace
But my future seems bright
Welcome to my sentence
This is certified life
I'm way up north
You don't know about ice
Raised off de la soul
And a dog named Phife
Better buckle up kid
I'm about to take flight
Ashamed of what I hid
So welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Yeah this shit'll sound good
I'm really feeling young
Like a second childhood
Use to lock up in the basement
Always blastin kid cud
Just spitting Day n night
So really tell me what's good
Got lots under the hood
So really ask me if I would
Poor my brain out through the pen
Wind up misunderstood
Bust myself outside of this cage
Get the simples really shook
Stay rockin mics on stage
Plant my feet right through the wood
Yeah Arik Peace raps
And his words is always tight
Even haters giving daps but
They asking for a fight
Can't touch me, I'm tremendous
I'm the one who will excite
All the real ones In attendance
Hope you have a good night
Drowning in port
Head cutting like a knife
They say I'm too old
I'll still do this shit despite
Everyone who said I couldn't
They're the first ones I'll invite
Take a bow inside the light
And say welcome to my life
