Forty Bucks

Take some time
Close your eyes
Breathe in
Taste the sky
Let it seep in

Peer through
To the other side of my corneas
I wanna cry because his story sucked
My brother died over forty bucks
Seen a mother lose her child to addiction
Another lose her child to the system
How do you bring a smile
To the folks who lost both their daughters in an instant
Gone in a head on collision
What's the cost of living
I was caught up in wrong decisions
A web of lies
But I was brought up with strong convictions
I exercise the lyrical
Gonna need a miracle
To breathe easy
Might need spiritual healing
But I fear it'll be a moot point
I smoke two joints
Feeling sublime
Rejoice that you're alive
Because death is absolute
So voice your gratitude
To those choice few
Who truly take the time to know you
And the things you go through
Life moves quick
And there's nothing to fasten to

Take some time
Close your eyes
Breathe in
Taste the sky
Let it seep inside the lining of your soul
Let the prism guide you home
Feel the rhythm of your heart beating

Take some time
Close your eyes
Breathe in
Taste the sky
Let it seep inside the lining of your soul
Let the prism guide you home
Feel the rhythm of your heart beating
