Tom Swifty - Today (feat. Erok Foret & SEE More Perspective)

(Today) Ain't no different from yesterday, it's just the same, really
When you get down to it, but
(Today) Is all we got, so we gotta make it hot
Yeah, we get down to it, what
(Today) Ain't no different from yesterday, it's just the same, really
When you get down to it, but
(Today) Is all we got, so we gotta make it hot
Yeah, we get down to it, what

Dream
For a better tomorrow
Let's get swept up in our hopes, a little less far to go
If yesterday was spent this way
But we got rent to pay
Trickin the mind to worship nickels and dimes
When there isn't the time
Change, we need it
Not in some faraway, unpromised one comment feeble
Let's be honest, people
It's embarrassing, carelessly prepared to keep racing
For less air to breath
Bickering hard, we should be filtering smog
It's time the kids are in charge
But the truth about today
Is hard to swallow, swim the shallow
Waters hollow, still lost the battle, that's today
Single mothers drink to mingle
Homeless masses, one-finger cymbal, that's today
Who's the quickest to pick up the picket signs
And who will get in line? That's today
Live, live, live

(Today) Ain't no different from yesterday, it's just the same, really
When you get down to it, but
(Today) Is all we got, so we gotta make it hot
Yeah, we get down to it, what
(Today) Ain't no different from yesterday, it's just the same, really
When you get down to it, but
(Today) Is all we got, so we gotta make it hot
Yeah, we get down to it, what

It ain't a small task
Composed when you fall flat
Breathin through the pain
Drippin blood and all that
To keep it real when deep fear is on blast
Such a bitter truth from such a small flask
Ain't easy to see, even less to admit to it
Something you can't understand 'less you really been through it
Something in the air, something in the vibe
Isn't what we're tryin to find even if we never hide it
Is it a lie denied behind eyelids
Is it still true if it resides inside silence
Disguised by the high, subsiding where the violence is
Aggression of condescension from the highnesses
Lurkin round edges, wrapped in that abrasion
A phantom of the opera read, a ghost of admiration
A smokin gun? Nope, a trail from the flare flung
Reoccurring accident we too afraid to run from

(Today) Ain't no different from yesterday, it's just the same, really
When you get down to it, but
(Today) Is all we got, so we gotta make it hot
Yeah, we get down to it, what
(Today) Ain't no different from yesterday, it's just the same, really
When you get down to it, but
(Today) Is all we got, so we gotta make it hot
Yeah, we get down to it, what

Wasted away, faded to grey
Feels like I've been placed in this play just to face
A parade of mistakes spectators can taste
An array of insane meditations on space
But I'm saved by the grace. Hastily chased away
Nascent escapes from this nation's debates
Tastefully named and encased in a framed
It'd be safer to say I was made for this game
But a taste of the fame (Today) ain't what it used to be
I'm used to seein' youth just bein' youth
Trying to erase the mundane (Today) and every day
That they livin' through, it's given to em, true, and yes
It's chastely displayed (Today) in a glass case guarded
By card-holding reps of the decayed and the lame
Of [today] They're yesterday's great martyrs
Who started with hearts chartered by the
Naval brigades of today
Yesterday it was the army
Tomorrow you'll be a body in a decorated grave
But [today] you're just an a-hole prayin'
He ain't a scapegoat in training, but there
Ain't no complaining
Not today, no, not today, save it for a later date
Now take all the blame, kid
What? You thought it's gonna be different, yo
Didn't you know

(Today) Ain't no different from yesterday, it's just the same, really
When you get down to it, but
(Today) Is all we got, so we gotta make it hot
Yeah, we get down to it, what
(Today) Ain't no different from yesterday, it's just the same, really
When you get down to it, but
(Today) Is all we got, so we gotta make it hot
Yeah, we get down to it, what
