I Could Write a Book

Dancing in the beat

I could write a book about my life
Started from my childhood when things weren't right
(Overlooked) I was out of sight
At the dark end of the street, searching for the light
(Cold world) all I see is ice
Rich folks buying jewelry, don't care about the price
I was once blind, but now I see that this world is full of lies

You'll be surprised when a wise guy speak his mind
Rest in peace, Dick Gregory, to change the world
He tried (we tried, whoa)

How high can you get, how low have you been?
Have you went out and preached that the world should repent?
How many years you gonna spend living in sin?
The answer "My friends, is blowing in the wind"
And it ain't about the race, it's about giving grace
Which way will your soul go when your body is in the grave?
I got so much love, I used to have a lot of hate
Every day is the same, it's up to you to make a change

I could write a book about my life
Started from my childhood when things weren't right
(Overlooked) I was out of sight
At the dark end of the street, searching for the light
(Cold world) all I see is ice
Rich folks buying jewelry, don't care about the price
I was once blind, but now I see that this world is full of lies

It's a war of good and evil, you angel or you a demon?
Even the strongest mind felt weakened for never knowing they're reason
I've been beating it In this world
Really didn't think I could last so long
Before I'm leaving this world, I'll be prepared to go home
To meet my mother and my father and all the friends that I love
No more struggles, thiefs, are robbers
My real life is because

I could write a book about my life
Started from my childhood when things weren't right
(Overlooked) I was out of sight
At the dark end of the street, searching for the light
(Cold world) all I see is ice
Rich folks buying jewelry, don't care about the price
I was once blind, but now I see that this world is full of lies
I could write a book

Now that's platinum plus
You can too
