Today

From the EP Gone by Scottychams

Intro

Lately

I’ve been waking up a lot

From my sleep

Cause that's when the dream

Goes and seems to weave

Between belief

And our reality

Clearly I can see

Every ends to a mean

I just smoke tree

And speak

On these things

Before they all asleep

Unaware of the scene

They conceive

Need to grow

Live and breathe

It seems to be

Such a wonderful life but now

I stop and think

Verse 1

I've been talking all my life

Only a few years now

I’ve been talking with a mic

About a sight I had in mind

A vision about religions

All these dollars, and divines

If you think I'm out of line

You should give this shit a try

Question the lies

If you've got the time to redefine

Cause all this time is mine

And soon you’ll come to find

Me on the grind

I’ve been working with this process

On all these projects

And they up next

Chorus

Today

Is just another wake

Keep this going at a pace

Anytime we down to blaze

Ditched a nine to five

To do this shit everyday

Twenty-four seven

I ain’t ask for pay

I’ve been playing to the music

Use that shit to kill the pain

Or a way to celebrate

This is just another wake

Keep this going at a pace

You should stay out the way

I ditched a nine to five

To do this shit everyday

I ain’t even ask for pay

That’s just how I play

Verse 2

Out today

Or tomorrow

Hard to know

I’m riding solo

I just go where I go

I do what I do

Then I smoke what I smoke

I ain’t got shit to prove

But I got shit to roll

Wait hold up

You know us

It’s no rush

It’s all love

Impact change

We’ve grown up

My gift is

I show up

And you’ve had bout enough

Of these rhymes

I can’t lie

I’d probably do this all the time

If I wouldn’t lose my mind

Like I’m doing now

But if I’m going down

I’d like to go out in style

Each day can be blessing

Any day can be hell

So I’m living each day

Cause there’s no way to tell

Write it down so I can heal

Put it out so I can help

Tried to keep it real

Talking what I’ve felt

Any hate you feeling

Yo that’s really about yourself

Trust me on this one

It’s really something else

I got to change it up

New perspective

On the shelf

Chorus

Today

Is just another wake

Keep this going at a pace

Anytime we down to blaze

Ditched a nine to five

To do this shit everyday

Twenty-four seven

I ain’t ask for pay

I’ve been playing to the music

Use that shit to kill the pain

Or a way to celebrate

This is just another wake

Keep this going at a pace

You should stay out the way

I ditched a nine to five

To do this shit everyday

I ain’t even ask for pay

That’s just how I play

Verse 3

I can see that

You only wanting stacks

And you just want to party

You ain’t never coming back

You don’t put in time to practice

If that’s how you act then

You should know what happens

We just lay the facts and

Deal with the reactions

People asleep

Problem is they don’t know

A nightmare from a dream

In this world of make believe

I’ve chosen to see

The mysticism

Which decision

Leads me closer to the vision

On a mission

I’m driven

Given

The state

Of the states

And irate places

Going crazy

On fake shit

Writing our wrongs

So we can make it

Make sense

Meet peace

And make amends
