Delaware Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Never blow a fire cause you know you'll get burned
And that's you thinking 'bout the future cause it's game and no point
All the shed of blood and sweat and tears and days to come
Complicated problems that have for you nowhere to run
Asking questions, mentions on a quest to live right
The way you want, but then you know because you end up at night
Because some fool recommend just waking up tight
And decide to keep you bullied just to keep his life right
Not a single bloody fight to ever [?]
And now every other day that the reality will
Our brothers are dying, and now our sisters in fear
Because the killing people for cash they choose to be their career
You know, the ones who buy the weapons hoping they're gonna win
With the semiautomatic so that life's but a sin
But if they knew that they'd be praying, pray in church every day
Cause when they die, they go to heaven [?]

[Hook]
And I'll be standin' on a corner street and sellin' my wealth
Or I'll be sittin', can I [?]
Or I'll be workin' in an office, that'll be fine by me
[?]

[Verse 2]
I tell you, baby, as a learner, trying to search for the truth
Behind the lies I slip like a detective or sleuth
The reality of living can't be found in a book
You need to know what to learn, you need to know where to look
I know happiness, it won't [?]
Always on my mind, I pray my life [?]
Sometimes I need to start again to have a clean slate
Before you can stop the future making life seem so great
Some days, with all my problems I just wanna walk away
But my heart, it [?] "I beg you to stay"
[?]
Cause at the end of the day, hey, keep your fears at bay
One night, it came to me, it came to me in a dream
As it was time for me to see where all the answers have been
And as I went away and slept because of what I had seen
I tried to tell a story to a friend [?]
[Hook x2]

[Verse 3]
So the music chooses life is gonna give me escape
With all the love for rhythm in my soul, it shadows the hate
But always knowing as I'm growing older, raps that I make
Will be the truth lurking in the dark [?]
So then I'll say it once, I'll say it louder, proud and again
You think that bodybuilding, making money making you mad?
You need to open up your eyes cause that won't pay the rent
Unless you utilize your given gift that's known as your brain
So hold your head in shame, I know the game experience changed
So roll your problems with your dice and give them out [?]
Cause I'm not asking for your paper greens to make myself rich
Just give and keep it real, cause you know life is a bitch
There's so many people unemployed, you know the [?] you see
But know [?]
You just remember who you're working for, you use your own freedom
Cause no one else is gonna carry you, you're hearing my preachin'
Where materialistic [?]
You can't forget just why you [?]
[?]
I'll happy 'til my day [?]

This is ongoing, going, going
Cause it's slowly going, going
[Hook to fade]
