D.O.T.D.

He was earnin' and just burning
He was yearning to start fresh
Put a bandage on his heart
Instead of becoming heartless
He was drinkin' and just working
While he was gone off that RX
Takin' shots always shootin'
Curry Kobe or Artest
His girl was maintaining
She' been with him for years now
After street living
Blood sweat and the tear clouds
He made everything out of nothing
But they're still here how
Was feeling bright
But they felt the dark coming near now
His soulmate, true love
She truly was the first to be
Dancing late nights
And popping wine on anniversaries
To keep her smiling all the time
He always felt the urgency
All those dark clouds over her head
Were the worst to see
State of deep depression
Everyday he had to talk her out
Went to visit family
He gave her kiss and walked her out
Next morning went to work
Talked to her while he was on the route
Later on
Found his girl dead
At her mama's house
Damn

Day of the dead

Her body buried
With his soul drifting away
He laid himself to rest
'Cus he died with her that day
Body and mind stayed faded
'Til it withered astray
His deep dark conscious says
These are demons at bay
Foldin' up my enemies
And unfoldin' all the cowards
What's a man with nothing to lose
To the one with the power
Guns at the tower
Diazepam one every hour
I like bacon for breakfast
All these puns I devour
I don't zone I stay woke
Palm closed and open eyed
My people tell me I should
Loosen up and just socialize
Never wish death upon a man
Shooting stars over skies
All walks of life around me
But I don't trust a soul in sight
They told him get down
But he held his ground instead
Told 'em get the fuck down
Gun held to his head
They got ready to just bust now
He was close to the edge
Young brother he was gunned down
Day of the dead
