illAbiliTi - Hardest Life (Blue Pill)

I know, I know
No one could tear this love apart and I know
It's been so hard to breathe
Like concrete, breaking up
It's too good
I thank God for every morning you wake up
Gotta be grateful now
We do what we can in the desert dust
It's been so hard, being alone, with no one there to listen to all the painful things that make this life nearly impossible to live with
As it was, it must become
So trust yourself like no one else does, because the rest of us, are just grains of sand in the desert dust

The Concrete Jungle's gettin' older
All her buildings start to rust
It rains the melting-pot to wine
Yeah
That's a blood lust, thirsty mind
They couldn't blame the youth or hide the truth from beaming through and reaching you
I'll teach you if you teach me too
Set the cue, let's shoot a few

Break the prism with a laser beam
My slick precision
Focused aim
I slip through cracks and window panes with the thickness of a razor blade
Go in one ear and melt your brain
Ah, rearrange your memories
See our Ancestors, their ancient ways
We try to stash what we can save, like
Cash won't leave a paper trace, but this life is just a gambling game
On the Straight and narrow
Poker face
Royal flush to ace of spades
We invaded outer-space, but, can't control our families
Some still feel the season's change
They call it weather entropy
Son's gave their lives for daughters
And daughters give birth to sons
Even though you felt alone, she built a house into a home
They ain't teach us how to read
Still we've done the best we can, but we ain't study for the test, so back to summer school again
Now come on

I know
No one could tear this love apart
And
I know
It's been so hard to breathe
Like concrete, breaking up
It's too good
I thank God for every morning you wake up
Gotta be grateful now
We do what we can in the desert dust
It's been so hard, being alone, with no one there to listen to all the painful things that make this life nearly impossible to live with
As it was, it must become
So trust yourself like no one else does, because the rest of us are just
Grains of sand in the desert dust

This is our last and final chance to pass on the Good News at last
All hands on deck, step the mast
I can feel the winds at our back

I know the world is on our side
I know the world is on our side
I know the world is on our side
I know the pressure of the world is on you
I know the world is on our side
I know the world is on our side
I know the world is on our side
I know the pressure of the world is on you
I know the world is on our side
I know the world is on our side
I know the world is on our side
I know the pressure of the world is on you
I know the world is on our side
I know the world is on our side
I know the world is on our side
I know the pressure of the world is on you

So I just take life easy, as hard as it gets
I stay strong for my people that need me until the end
Uh huh
I'm my brothers keeper who could keep me in check
You see the world in checkered patterns, but it really is chess
In spirit and truth, you'll know yourself and maybe God too
But don't get it confused
Just remember me as one of the few
You can't reduce me to a call or a text
Attempt to skip me next and bet you'll end up standing on your head
Rest
Wondering what I coulda said next

Pause
Pause
Pause
Reflect
A moment of silence to mourn please show respect for the dead
I said, Pause
Pause
Pause
Reflect
A moment of silence to mourn please show respect for the dead

Jesus Christ resurrected but suffered life's greatest test
He suspected Satan would tempt him, but he didn't accept
So, tortured and vexed
The Blind led the deaf, hateful and jealous
You heard what He said is
Take this wine and bread of my flesh

I know, I know
