In the End
Diamonds and fortune
Will it be worth it?
Or should I stop
And start over again?
It's all that I'm after
A greedy disaster
What will be left of my soul in the end?
We all have a choice
Better yet
We all have choices
We all got voices
And we do what we do
I had choices in life
I did what I wanted to
I did it for myself
I had to move in stealth
'Cause where I live
Being sentimental it is bad for your health
It's a roll of the dice
And you're faced with living life in a cell
For posting up on the corner
And proceed to make sales
So what did I do?
I picked up a pen and a pad
And then I wrote everything that I had
Whether it's happy or sad
Whether it's stories I heard
Or experiences I had
I just knew that no matter the reactions
No matter if a round of applause
Or a mother fucking laughter
This is what I love
And so I'm spilling my guts
I do it for myself
It is passion not lust
Diamonds and fortune
Will it be worth it?
Or should I stop
And start over again?
It's all that I'm after
A greedy disaster
What will be left of my soul in the end?
It is passion not lust
At least that's what I thought
At least that's how it started
But times got hard
And it got me broken hearted
As I grew and realized
That it's all about the money
It is all about the green
Nothing has meaning
Motherfucker is seldom seen
'Cause he's out serving fiends
And he's out causing havoc
Up and down on the streets
If there's a god in the sky
That we meet when we die
Then here's a letter to you, homie
I don't know what the deal is
Is it a bet you're fulfilling
Or a test for your children
But this test it is killing
Everybody mentally
And it's even killing me
And once upon a time
I had faith and I was blind
Like a sheep I believed
But reality is mean
Let me tell you what I mean
See, destruction's what I see
And it's toxic what I breathe
And now the life that I lead
Is a life full of greed
'Cause money's all I need
And if to you this only means
That I deserve to be punished
Then, father go ahead
Punish me at will
I am only your reflection
Imperfection
What's the lesson
Is it prison
Do you listen
When I pray?
Do you listen when we pray?
Write me back when you can
Until then I will play the cards in hand
I just hope you understand
I just hope you understand
Diamonds and fortune
Will it be worth it?
Or should I stop
And start over again?
It's all that I'm after
A greedy disaster
What will be left of my soul in the end?
Diamonds and fortune
What will be left of my soul in the end?
Will it be worth it?
Or should I stop
And start over again?
It's all that I'm after
A greedy disaster
What will be left of my soul in the end?
We all have a choice
Better yet
We all have choices
We all got voices
And we do what we do
