What's up, man?
Jack, can you give this call back?

805

Give, borrow, happiness, sorrow
Life is normal, life is bizarre, yo
True that, from sundown to sunup
Give you what you're looking for
'Cause life is nothing but a come up

Life seems uncertain, pain increasing
There's still tension with all this releasing
Hypocrisy breeds lies, feed unstoppable greed
Fulfill needs then leave

Won't live for God but die for a country
Recruiting is a form of hunting, I'm not game
Stay out the scope, too fast to be a target
I'm motivational while these others are lethargic
Outside the margin, we bring it together
For the humanist booming this for the illuminist
Put down the plum wine, let the moon shine
Relax, it all happens in due time

And if you do, make sure you don't trip
I'm at the Queen Mary yelling "Abandon ship"

I need to meditate as I get older
Or else these young bucks are gonna give me ulcers
Make the problems minor, a fresh reminder
I'm just an architect, Jah is the designer
My faith makes me more than a rhymer
While you take out MCs, we take off blinders

Give, borrow, happiness, sorrow
Life is normal, life is bizarre, yo
True that, from sundown to sunup
Give you what you're looking for
'Cause life is nothing but a come up
Give, borrow, happiness, sorrow
Life is normal, life is bizarre, yo
True that, from sundown to sunup
Give you what you're looking for
'Cause life is nothing but a come up

I take each and every single day that it comes
Lifestyle rugby keeps me weighing the cut where the goods be
I take it back to the way that it was or the way you wish it could be
For the next generation to be blessed with eyes that could see
As this bangs in the club, Jack's on a mission on strangle issues
Catching debris, climbing up the family tree from thorn bristles
There's only so much one could take
Jump out the palm of God's hand
Land, stand strong and proceed to slapbox with fate

Look to my right, Mr. Keys brought some in (Visionary)
Oh no, the disrupt referee runs the track while we box him in
He tells me he got rules of his own
Blast at him, clashed at him while Wildchild, yo
Use the microphone, turn the negative to positive

It's a fight to the end, we got a right to defend
The blessed light that we send
But first you gotta live for you
And yours are soon to follow

Only you control the soul steps of tomorrow

Give, borrow, happiness, sorrow
Life is normal, life is bizarre, yo
True that, from sundown to sunup
Give you what you're looking for
'Cause life is nothing but a come up
Give, borrow, happiness, sorrow
Life is normal, life is bizarre, yo
True that, from sundown to sunup
Give you what you're looking for
'Cause life is nothing but a come up

As midnight hits, the lightning bolt then strikes the tower
Sending us to the future to continue to fight for power
I'm in the form of a microscopic interspace vehicle
Implanted in the brain of a hip-hop kid, Bill
So no one can stop it, yield
To the C and B factor, connect and build
Use the cerebellum as a building block then inject the skill
Leaving no evidence but still
Taking strides in the proof
Element and Wildchild took shots of God in the youth

Detour, road rage onto happy trails
Climbing up and down these musical scales
Under the sun, nothing hasn't already been done
From the get, we set it off before it begun
It's more family-orientated peace and love
Why gotta make the hard heart shotta?
Roll up my green sleeves, I know not believe
It's better to achieve when you don't deceive

Give, borrow, happiness, sorrow
Life is normal, life is bizarre, yo
True that, from sundown to sunup
Give you what you're looking for
'Cause life is nothing but a come up
Give, borrow, happiness, sorrow
Life is normal, life is bizarre, yo
True that, from sundown to sunup
Give you what you're looking for
'Cause life is nothing but a come up
