Kid was living on the rails cause he chooses to Goes to jail, comes back with juice, crews enthused Who knew the bruise would heal so quick? Who knew the passion would become fashion And get you fastened onto his dick? You might as well have let him penetrate The situation shook me, looking at rookies that try to emulate One sets the standard, the weak randomly follow Space ain’t shit, some kid’ll take your place tomorrow The cycle never stops cause you can’t recycle styrofoam I still see Andre nowadays, he fucks with microphones [Spawn] Man, they lied, it ain’t how you die, it’s how you breathe It ain’t what you take, it’s what you leave and conceive What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid [Slug] They lied, it ain’t how you die, it’s how you breathe It ain’t what you take, it’s what you leave and conceive What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid What you got ain’t nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid [Spawn] They lied, it ain’t how you die, it’s how you breathe It ain’t what you take, it’s what you leave and conceive What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid [Slug] But the sun will come out tomorrow And you can bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow There’ll be someone that’s harder than me and smarter than me And stronger than me and lasts longer than me So check my fate, wide awake but feels like I’m sleeping Trife life can’t catch a wife that’s really worth my keeping It’s deeper, I peep it, I seem to need to understand How am I gonna explain to my seed I was the man? [Spawn] Wirth Park killings, suicide in crystal court buildings Young villains holding guns without feelings Dealing crumbs of demons to those fiending Lost in dreams when the pressure hit I mean the fan hit the shit but when the shit hit the fan that was it Flipped out, you tripped out, you couldn’t handle it Addicted to life dismantlement ? from distortion to brain abortion forcing to perish Life’s to cherish, the moments too little The path is brittle for those who chose to walk hard In regards to those who front, stunts get elderly Propelling me to disappointment, could’ve been avoided By egos posing lethal with weapons Deceptions are ill, revolve around intentions to kill Gots to chill on that level or end up with the Devil Digging your grave somewhere in the middle [Slug] It’s no riddle, they lied It ain’t how you die, it’s how you breathe It ain’t what you take, it’s what you leave and conceive What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid [Spawn] They lie, it ain’t how you die, it’s how you breathe It ain’t what you take, it’s what you leave and conceive What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid [Slug] What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it, it ain’t where you’re from, it’s where you been, kid What you got is nothing if your soul don’t represent it Present it
