Thursday in the Danger Room (feat. Kamasi Washington) - Run The Jewels/Kamasi Washington.mp3

[00:30.14]Right for a right wrong for a wrong
[00:31.80]This is clearly not life's design
[00:33.65]Figure out quickly that nothing gets answered
[00:35.51]When you ask the universe why
[00:37.31]Life is a journey to live is to worry
[00:39.34]To love is to lose your damn mind
[00:41.32]But living's a blessing so I am not stressing
[00:43.26]'Cause some of my friends ain't survived
[00:45.07]That's the release but in much bigger pieces
[00:46.99]I'm living on limited time
[00:48.78]Like how do you look in the eyes of a friend
[00:51.13]And not cry when you know that they're dying
[00:52.86]How do you feel 'bout yourself when you know
[00:54.52]That sometimes you had wished they were gone
[00:56.33]Not because you didn't love 'em but just
[00:57.95]Because you felt too weak to be strong
[01:00.20]You couldn't bear to see someone who prided
[01:02.07]Themselves on the strength to feel weak
[01:04.02]You prove to your randomness hold it for ransom
[01:05.99]That life will not fade in your dreams
[01:07.92]You see that they're fighting and know
[01:09.37]That they're losing but still you make jokes and you laugh
[01:11.84]'Cause you know despite all the sadness
[01:13.31]That you better get the good times while they last
[01:15.50]Now every new word that they speak
[01:16.96]You are already feeling like it's in the past
[01:19.37]And when they all gone you just try to move on
[01:21.57]'Cause the memory's hurting too bad
[01:23.19]Grown up so much and I wonder who you'd've
[01:25.08]Become if you stuck for a while
[01:27.07]Just know that I love you good friend
[01:28.70]Ain't forget you and when I remember I smile
[01:33.76]And I guess I'd say I'll see you soon
[01:37.51]But the truth is that I see you now
[01:41.19]Still talk to you like you're around
[01:48.91]And I guess I say you left too soon
[01:52.82]But the truth is that you never left
[01:56.50]'Cause I never let myself forget
[02:31.95]An eye for an eye and a tooth for the tooth
[02:34.15]Will leave us all mumbling and blind
[02:35.65]So we stumble blind through depths of the dark
[02:37.36]Looking for something divine
[02:39.36]Life is a journey to live is to suffer
[02:41.19]And I have been suffering through mine
[02:43.10]But living's a blessing so I ain't no stressing
[02:44.99]'Cause some of my ****** ain't 'round
[02:47.09]He got no drama but his baby mama
[02:48.50]Is still on my line and she cryin'
[02:50.75]I searched for the words to give her some comfort
[02:52.54]For her soul and spirit and mind
[02:54.63]I tell her that it'll be fine
[02:56.42]But deep down I know that I'm lying
[02:58.28]The family came took rings and his chains
[03:00.26]The bank took the house and the rights
[03:02.25]The only thing left was his child
[03:04.01]And she had a smile in his eyes
[03:05.95]So much to the soul when the grandmama kept her
[03:07.69]She'd look at her sometime and cry
[03:09.68]The very next day she cried
[03:11.55]And day after day she cried
[03:13.52]Then called baby mama and told her
[03:15.38]I'm sorry can't keep her no more I have tried
[03:17.50]No killer was captured but I know he listening
[03:19.27]So I'd like to tell you in song
[03:21.14]The streets was a jungle
[03:22.27]I pray that you made it
[03:23.37]I hope that you righted your wrongs
[03:25.08]I hope that you learn
[03:26.05]I hope that you changed so your mama won't know this pain
[03:28.71]So my homie's name will mean something
[03:30.38]More than a ***** got killed for a chain
[03:35.71]And I guess I'd say I'll see you soon
[03:39.47]But the truth is that I see you now
[03:43.11]Still talk to you like you're around
[03:50.86]And I guess I say you left too soon
[03:54.74]But the truth is that you never left
[03:58.41]'Cause I never let myself forget
