5th Child- Motherless Child

When anxiety overcomes/ I'm fightin' it over drums/
Mama cryin' tears of joy at the sight of what I've become/
Blacks gunning over fights/ Whites fighting over guns/
But I'd rather be righteous than right when it's said and done/
You cheatin' the reaper when you surviving through the slums/
Where they takin' all the cake and slide icing on the crumbs/
Then they hand you a plate/ You start stuffing your face/
Wonderin' why dem belly full but to the hunger you succumb/
I guess that's why I'm getting numb/ and I ain't feelin' they opinions/
When you recognize the real it starts revealing the chameleons/
Used to pray over meals and now we're praying over millions/
'Cause the appetite for that rapper life is so appealing/
The kingdom's full of soldiers/ No such thing as civilians/
So let us in the door or else we're bringing down the buildin'/
It's moments like this when I-I get a feelin'/
Even if I'm not a star... I'm a star that shines brilliant/

What I'm On Now: Toro y Moi's Anything In Return

Although I primarily make hip hop music, I find inspiration in all types of music. Lately, this has been the only thing I care to listen to. Apparently it's called "chillwave" but either way it's jamming. I first heard of Toro y Moi when I Shazam'd a song I heard in some department store or something. Then my homie DJ Young Venom had the vinyl copy of the album Anything in Return at his studio and after hearing a few more tracks I was completely sold. This album has been in HEAVY rotation everywhere I go. I've been playing it for everyone I know and they all dig it. You probably will too... Check it out... Toro y Moi- Anything in Return

House of Balloons Remix (w/ Lyrics)



Bottles on the nightstand tell the story of the glory of my lifespan.
The ceiling fan spinnin' (maybe we should start at the beginnin').
Glass full of liquor and a room full of women.
Celebrating youth so we lose inhibitions.
The feeling in the air may influence our decisions...Listen...
We're living without bumpers, seeking new thrills trying to satisfy the hunger.
Parents used to run our lives now they run from us...
A lost cause, you would think we lost laws.
Lesson 1: Unlock bras with one hand; Use Rubbers.
And we passed that "ugh" with flying colors.
Passion under covers- no underlying meanin'.
"I ain't say I love, mama. I'm just tryin' to see IT."
Taste that...Embrace that...
And in the morning we can blame it on The Weeknd.
Friday night lights. Saturday night fever.
Sunday morning too hungover to find preachers.
Ultraviolet lights invented these dark creatures,
Pulsating kick drums claimed another victim,
Stumbling and piss drunk thumbing through a smart phone,
Drunk-text ex's tell 'em where your heart's gone,
My mind's blown off chemicals,
Who the hell cares? We're 21 and invincible...
