Slay the Night

That's when I realized like how dangerous these people actually are Like they will make up complete lies about you And put it in actual news headlines bruh Like they tried to say I desecrated an American flag My protest was against white supremacy It was against the confederate flag Like let that sink in though But they tried their best to turn my friends against me My fans against me But their lies made me like a legend Because I fought against empire and I won What do you think when it comes to me? Where do you go when you run from me? Will you be there when they come for me? Do you realize what you've done to me? I'm on a road and its paved in gold I'm gentle inside but they say I'm bold I'm trying to balance my multiple talents I open my heart and they say it's closed Oh well oh well We living good we shining bright We hold the fire we slay the night We gave our soul we paid the price Oh well oh well So let them hate us from afar They aim at us like shooting stars We never changing who we are Oh well oh well We eat fire then breathe life No peace signs in these times We kill idols we free minds Oh well oh well So let them hate us from afar They aim at us like shooting stars We never changing who we are Yeah okay, all of my life I try to inspire But inside I'm dying I guess I'm a liar My head to the sky my feet to the fire My only desire healing humanity raising it higher There's pain in my purpose the day I expire That be the day I'm no longer inspired My body armor is made out of iron The weight of the world keeping me tired I'm praying to Juice praying to Peep Give me the power to speak I'm praying to Pac give me the courage To carry the torch when they aim for my heart Oh well oh well We living good we shining bright We hold the fire we slay the night We gave our soul we paid the price Oh well oh well So let them hate us from afar They aim at us like shooting stars We never changing who we are Oh well oh well We eat fire then breathe life No peace signs in these times We kill idols we free minds Oh well oh well So let them hate us from afar They aim at us like shooting stars We never changing who we are Yeah, okay I built her a home and I waited here A lump in my throat but I say it clear She taste the poison as soon as she kiss me I took her spirit returned it with interest The moral of story is simple If you're not careful the fame and the money will kill you Face all your issues handle addictions God will not put you in any position That you cannot handle All of my heroes have died of afflictions Killed by the pressure of fans and ambition I don't think anyone's listening Oh well oh well We living good we shining bright We hold the fire we slay the night We gave our soul we paid the price Oh well oh well So let them hate us from afar They aim at us like shooting stars We never changing who we are Oh well oh well We eat fire then breathe life No peace signs in these times We kill idols we free minds Oh well oh well So let them hate us from afar They aim at us like shooting stars We never changing who we are Cause you know in your heart What's right and what's wrong So say that shit with your chest You don't want to die tomorrow Wondering what you should have did Or what you should have said To make the world a better place
