taxin' our soul - norcal nick lyrics
[verse 1]
there’s only so long, you can go on
with no anchor, no crutch
nothin’ here to save us, no angels
starin’ at my daughters, makin snow angels
knowin’ they’ll never make it to college if i don’t make it..
same reason those strippers are on the pole naked.. same reason that hustlas on the block slangin’
tryin’ to send his daughters toschool instead of vegas..
f-ck what politicians are saying, cuz ain’t sh-t changin..
were still on a ship with more leaks than fingers to plug it
prayin’ we come up with a plan before this sh-t plummets
and we’re stuck knee deep in the sand, with no shovel, no nothin,
diggin’ out s.o.s signs with our hands..
so when they ask me why im riding with cash
no jewelry to stunt with
its cause i’m tryin’ to find me some land far away from the public
build a home, with no loan from the bank
no home depot ready made home they can take
just the sweat from the hands of a man trying to make an honest liven’
i just wanna wanna create something that mine not something that’s givin
just something to live in, something to hand down..
f-ck what you have now, you might be the man now, next year your a man down
we here for the long run, you can go for the sprint, well stick to the jog son..
so tell me what y’all want!
[hook]
tell me what y’all want
the cars & the clothes
tell me what y’all want
a watch and a rolls
tell me what y’all want
some platnium & gold
mm.. still taxin’ our soul..
[verse 2]
sometimes..
i can’t believe, the cards, i was dealt
my whole life’s been a war, walk cautions through h-ll..
dark forces disguised as white horses who help
but when the going gets tough, all the hors-m-n just bail..
lost in the dark, like your only light sources just failed..
only choice is just to stick the course, go straight to the source
speak corgel as well
and i be stompin’ out this beat
but this much honesty is not for the frail
but honestly, it’s not that i’m a conscious mc
i’m just constantly bombarded by these thoughts that live inside me
thoughts on the economy, u know that lame stuff..
those human nature make ups, that make us, break up, then kiss and make up…
that pain, trust, that hate, love, dance in the rain stuff
but you’d rather be fake huh? than talk about a real life day, month, year
you want a little small talk? you rather hear me pop off &
spit that same sh-t? play the politics
holler at hoes, pop bottles, and hollow-tips
then diss every rapper thats been poppin since 50 did it to all of em’, all in the same breath
well maybe the day that, i receive a f-ckin paycheck
for this mayhem, that i write.. cause till then these cold tears still pouring on the mic..
this is life.. a life where we all want, so tell em’ we all want..
[hook]
