End of the Line

I used to have dream when I was a little kid
That I be
Running on stage, while we all be getting lit
That I be
Having a girl, who loves me for who I am
That I be
Having a homie, who always gon' be there
That I be
Tasting the freedom, y'all talking about
Going out with the loves or maybe we just joke around
Without the stench of death endlessly swirling about
It seemed like a place where I would never be allowed

But the sun does shine, at the end of the night
Watch me laying in the garden, basking in the light
I never thought that one day I'm gonna make it here
This was the vision, so sometimes Imma shed some tears
The past still haunts me, even when the sky is clear
The nightmares fading, but they never disappear
The doubts they with me and they always staying near
But I focus on the positive, cause I've already tasted fear

I was heartbroken when my auntie pasted away
She lived a life that can never be compared
A beautiful mind, beautiful soul, gone too soon
There is no way you can ever be prepared
But while you living, you're immortal, so do as you dare
Time might corrupt your vision, but don't you despair
For you to rise up, you need to fall down first
Embrace your failures, while you're rolling in the dirt
Cause from your mistakes,
Knowledge is the cargo that will be supplied
Pain is temporary, and y'know it will subside
It's your life, so you should be the one to decide

This song is to get you out the loop of darkness
Grab the moment, cease the day and harness
The energy surrounding you is harmless
Cause every choice you make, might be timeless

And when I'm older, I'll tell my kids about my glory
And whatever they do, I hope that I can be supportive
I'll believe in their dreams, and I'll try not to worry
I had my journey, now it's time to just obverse it

And when I'm laying in bed and I'm tired of life,
I will feel the warmth of my kids by my side
It will be the biggest blessing
Of this journey we call a life

Before I leave I'll tell 'em this
The flesh is weak, but they can never kill my essence
And when I'm gone, I hope that you will feel my presence
It isn't much, but this life here is my present
She will be tough, but she will always teach a lesson
So live it well, live it good and pay attention
And never forget that you're truly gifted
So keep your head up high while u living life
Cause at the end.

Cause we all fall down
(All fall down)
At the end of the line
(At the end of the line)
We all fall down
(Ohh oh oh oh)
At the end of the line
(The line)
We all fall down
(All)
At the end of the line
At the end of the line
