Look, somehow I escaped the fate of this life I lead
The worst the streets, she tried to kill me and my wife to be
Black widow, silk sheets and a satin pillow
This california king loved you like a sack of indo
Empty patron bottles and a pack of mentos
Master suite frigerator full of incidentals
Everyday we have a ball like the blond bimbo
Talk to her like a shrink and fuck her like a nympho
And it can be as simple as it seems
If you never doubt yourself, and learn from everything you see
No wishing on a star can turn your life into a dream
You could walk on water just don't look down at your feet
Look, told this world I was a star I'm gonna need a stage
Cause life is short and talk is cheap so fuck what people say
When I was 12 a crazy lady told me lead the way
I shed a tear cause it was real, this water never straight
[Chorus:]
Now every second is a classic, when nothing last
Gotta take a moment and appreciate the fact that
This world is turning faster and faster
And once you found the real it's hard to tolerate the plastic
I ain't no christian, ain't no catholic but
I believe God gonna shine his light on everyone that never had shit
I need some answers to these questions that I'm asking
We used to be connected, who detached us
We used to be respected, now they laughing
We've turned into possessions with no passion
How we go from the best to less then average
We used to be connected, who detached us
But no collective identity, it's every man for himself
We need a black mafia
Look, ruthless crip on some stupid shit,
To vale and that [?] ruthless shit
I think too much tv is what ruins kids
When homosexual activists they influences
We need community centers that teach the music biz
That way we learn to retain ownership on some jewish shit
Don't take no hand out, you built it is more lucrative
And out of everything that I spoke, this the truest shit
You get abused long enough, you start abusing shit
She flipped the script and now your woman calling you a bitch
You got some problems in the house that only you can fix
And if he was a kid that grew up with it even you would split
He told the world he was a star and he gonna need a stage
Cause life is short and talk is cheap so fuck what people say
When he was 12 a crazy lady told him lead the way
He shed a tear cause it was real, this water never straight
[Chorus:]
Now every second is a classic, when nothing last
Gotta take a moment and appreciate the fact that
This world is turning faster and faster
And once you've found the real it's hard to tolerate the plastic
I ain't no christian, ain't no catholic but
I believe God gonna shine his light on everyone that never had shit
I need some answers to these questions that I'm asking
We used to be connected, who detached us
[Steve Jobs:]
"Death is the destination that we all share.
No one has ever escaped it.
And that is, as it should be.
Because death is very likely the single best invention of life.
It's life's changing that clears out the old,
To make way for the new.
Right now, the new is you.
But someday, not too long from now,
You'll gradually become the old and be put away.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
Don't be trapped by [?], which is living with the
Results of other peoples thinking.
Don't let the noise of others screaming drown out
Your own inner voice.
And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
Everything else is secondary.
Stay hungry. Stay foolish.
It was their farewell message as they signed off.
And now, I wish that for you.
Stay hungry. Stay foolish.
Thank you all very much."
