Old Soul Era - Lost Streets

Now let me tell you what it's like to be free
Cruising boulevards and avenues that never knew me
Till I pulled up on the neighborhood to represent dreams
That my imagination station used to place in my sleep
I used to want a total refund but I lost the receipt
So I said fuck I'm gon' snatch it cause that's all I could see
The homies pushing for the paper turned into disease
But that's the life inside the dungeons of these murderous streets
It's part of the scene to put your soul and heart in the stream
Departed far from where the bottom of the bottle would scream
They taught us all that for tomorrow we must swallow our dreams
In ancient times they tried to lie but Moses parted the seas prolific
Thoughts I have are just super specific
When it comes to what I feel like a natural mystic I rip it
Real shit in the booth or the stage to express the broken lessons that I wrote on a page

Life lived and memories lost
Painting pictures on the pavement with the ivory chalk
Names forgotten never spoken didn't make the report
But they resurrect in sentences whenever I talk

Inside the carbon, you hear it forming
Yellow brown clouds keep your vision from soaring
Helicopters moving at the speed of the morning
While our Mothers bury sons in the afternoon mourning for the
Lost souls from the lost streets in time
We're cursed but we say that we're fine
And dying inside while trying to find
What we think it really is that makes the sun and moon shine
So keep your eyes on the road and hope one day it unfolds
Into to key we have been searching for to liberate goals
We must leave our destination to deliver our soul
Into a freedom Far from anything we've ever been told
So let's rise for the ultimate prize and go get it
If time hasn't been on our side then let's split it and coast
Real slow until we turn into ghost live every second
Like you love it the most and just breathe
