Jay Phoenix - Eclipse Lyrics

I gotta pray to God at least one time
Take me out of the rain into the sunshine
Cause my heart beat-beatin' like a drumline
Cause I'm only three breaths from a flatline
See the drugs got me, feeling Eclipse
Not a dollar to my name cause I'm all outta chips
Wish I had a normal life but that doesn't exist
When the measure of success keep flipping the script, I wanna
Tell my momma not to cry no more
Cause her son ain't never getting high no more
And we'll never worry about getting by no more
But I don't cause I don't wanna lie no more
All I really wanna know will I live or die
Just an underground king living in the sky
In the city of no pity everybody high
Never criticize till you see it in my eyes
People love me for the same thing they hate me for
I done taste the success, now they hate me more
Throw me in the fire like I'm Abednego
Coming up the same way that I was before, see
Round here living life is a trip
When you high on a hit, or you needing a fix
Still tryna hold on but you're losing your grip
And the only thing left is to quit, holla
Sometimes I don't know what's better
Is it the drugs, sex or success?
But I know I can do better
I just can't quite fall for it
I know I'm human, I fall short
My mistakes are just like yours
So I need you to listen to me
Sometimes it's hard to breathe
And I tried, and I tried, and I tried, and the world just goes
(And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try and the world just goes)
I'm a monster, I'm defiant
Smaller than an ant but I'm battling giants
Feeling like Tesla discovering science
Way before Edison made y'all buy us
Half of America's covered in violence
Music in my soul so I can't be silent
Say they want peace but I don't buy it
Cause if they really want that we should try it
Hustle like a madman and keep the focus
But the world keep dealing me the hocus-pocus
Most spit tracks so the tricks can notice
But I'm sticking to my guns and I'm strictly posted
Tryna find the light so I hustle the hardest
To get up out this moment and time of darkness
Demons in my ear tryna trap my spirit
But I came here for war, feel it, fear it
Sometimes I don't know what's better
Is it the drugs, sex or success?
But I know I can do better
I just can't quite fall for it
I know I'm human, I fall short
My mistakes are just like yours
So I need you to listen to me
Sometimes it's hard to breathe
And I tried, and I tried, and I tried, oh
And I tried, and I tried, and tried
(Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah)
And the world just goes
