Lyrics Piece of Paradise - Ka-Flame

Just imagine, another place and time
Where we didn't have to struggle, it's racing through my mind
No longer are we dying, no longer are we crying
And everybody's wealthy, so everyone can shine
Know the poverty is gone, nobody feels alone
I'm talking positivity, the vibes are hitting strong
No more sirens from police, no more violence in these streets
And the wars have all ceased, we can finally live in peace
No more drugs, on the block, no more slugs, no more opps
No more thugs, no more cops, nothing but love, nothing but props
I'm talking 'bout respect, everybody cashing checks
No more robbing, no more killing, no more crashing on the set
I'm talking unity, no more stress, for you and me
The way this world headed though, that ain't what we soon to see
All the years I strived, survived so much pain
Often wonder 'bout this paradise, & if there's such a thang?
Mane

All this pressure I'm applying, know it's sad to say
Back in my lab so I know, I had 'em mad today
I want a piece of paradise, but like they have to hate
Can't comprehend it, so they asked me to elaborate
All this pressure I'm applying, know it's sad to say
Back in my lab so I know, I had 'em mad today
I want a piece of paradise, but like they have to hate
Can't comprehend it, so they asked me to elaborate, ok

Dealing with the world, trying to cope, with the stress
Got me venting in these verses, what I wrote, I confess
Sick and tired of living broke, just hope I'm close, to success
Want a piece of paradise, can only hope, for the best
Still the King of my domain, the Crown is getting heavier
Me against the world, but it won't seem to let me up
Still fighting, got my knuckles lookin' dark
At a disadvantage, cause I had to struggle, from the start
Had no father figure, I guess he figured, we was good
Left Me and My Mama both, stranded in the hood
Misunderstood, wish he could, but he didn't love her
I'm the end results of him, wearing a thin rubber
A Gemini, though I never had a twin brother
In this society, they judge you off of skin color
Ya spend double, talking cash and ya time too
Still the Realest of the Real, need I remind you

All this pressure I'm applying, know it's sad to say
Back in my lab so I know, I had 'em mad today
I want a piece of paradise, but like they have to hate
Can't comprehend it, so they asked me to elaborate
All this pressure I'm applying, know it's sad to say
Back in my lab so I know, I had 'em mad today
I want a piece of paradise, but like they have to hate
Can't comprehend it, so they asked me to elaborate, ok
