Inhale Deep
Bring my drums in...Now nod your head.I'm gonna do me, Now check it:We all know that life can get hectic,but if you live in the secondyou exist in the presentand that's how you stay connectedthrough good times and hardshipsif you learn to just accept itand know that every struggle in life is gonna teach you a lesson.It's times like this that make you,it's always the darkest part of the nightright before the sun has its break through.The spirit's there to knock you downbut if you make that the end you'll neverknow the beauty of being able to stand up againand face it with patience,the basis is dealin' with judgements and hatred,depressed hopeless feelings,but I've been told you only create your own ceilingand life is limitless and knowin' this is what the spirit is.Letras de cancionesThat's why I try to inhale deepso i can find peace, in essence just find me.That's why I lose myself in these beatsas I become one with the drums and set myself free.Whatever direction life leads me,there's a purpose behind it,that's the way it was supposed to be.At anytime you can turn over a new leaf.We all know the truth, it's up to us to use the key.It's been three years since my first album droppedand it's been fear that's really got me stuck in this spot.Not wantin' to put out anything wack,so instead of putting my licks on tracksI put my lips to a sack,Cos' it's easier to spend your life drunk and high on drugsthen put everything into recording, put it out and then get judged.We look for the audience to put their hands up and show love,but when their hands go down our confidence really takes the plunge.So instead of makin' music that people might not like,I went into isolation, traded in my mic for the pipe.Started livin' the college life: drinkin' and smokin' everyday,rationalizing to myself that I was goin through a phase.Then I'd stop, thinking my music would take its place,but when you live in fog, inspiration's hard to create.It takes more to get connected then to quit smokingand when I get frustrated I get a swish and get blown away.Then all of a sudden it hit me: these kids are listenin'.If I'm not makin music why the fuck am I existing?How can I talk about the problems of something elsewhen I don't have the motivation and confidence to change myself?It's been so long since I've really truly feltwhat it's like to live life without substances to help.Mask the struggle, that's natural to one's health,but with addiction in my blood I play the cards I was dealt.Knowin' it's the most calm right before the storm,and when you least expect it, it doesnt rain, it pours.I swear to god, you can never be warned,with or without umbrella,nature's still gonna take it's course.Thats why I try to inhale deep,so I can find peace, in essence just find me.Thats why I lose myself in these beats,put away the weed, and turn to my mpc.Come on.
