E-Town Concrete - The Phoenix Lyrics

so i take another step, and one more breath closer to death. there's things going on in this world that got me stressed. lately

got time for ya'll. focus my goals. i chose. c'mon now, you just write ryhmes...i recite lifelines. you're in it for the long

keep feeding mine. that's the deal and that's for real, by any means. am i wrong because i want the finer things in life?
hell no.
take this world by storm.
