Phora - Just Another Day Lyrics
Verse 1:The only things guaranteed in live is death, trouble, & taxesOnly way you'll succeed in life is to step up & then grab itWith everyday that passes I learn my lessons from actions that led to being mistakesYet I never regret my past. & I know, yeah I know some niggas envy my positionI keep hearing these rumors, but they tell me not to listenI keep having these nightmares, but they help me write these lyrics& it's so deep from the soul she said she felt me by a spiritMother, dear mother, far to many of you cryingBrother, dear brother, far to many of you dyingThey tryna hold me back, but naw I'll never stop tryingTo steer my people away from the ignorance & violenceI'm sick of living through the week with a frown& I hate that it's our own people that's keeping us downBut I never let them take away my reason to smileDeath is lurking through my city, & it's creepin' aroundI'm prepared for when it reaches meSo I'm studying the bible & I'm utilizing everything it teaches mePractice what I preach, I never follow from the tv screenThey say have faith in god, but I just hope he believes in me& I'm just looking for acceptance, jesus didn't run when everybody turned against himJudas showed his jealousy & broke apart the friendship, betrayal, the lord will take his vengeanceVerse 2:I just wish my people would understand the reason why I wrote thisBut you probably just like the beat & you didn't really noticeI'm trying to spill my soul out in hopes that you can feel meIm trying to change the world & save a life before they kill me& I pray that I make it to my 18th birthdayNot the type to spit a bunch of metaphor's & worldplayI speak from the heart, write about the shit that mattersTo be honest, Im not really any emcee or a rapperIm just a regular kid putting words over beats& my soul is ablinded with the urge to be freeBe you, stay positive & follow your dreamJust make sure that you can trust the cats thats part of your teamCause jealousy runs deep within the blood of a coward& they'll say that your his brother but he's gonna turn sourWhen he sees your success & progessionBut just keep moving along & never question your blessings& I ain't scared to fall. Naw, I've hit the bottom beforeI remember sleeping my niggas Honda AcurdWe get sick of dealing with all the problems of courseEverytime I try to ignore, shit I thought of it moreBut that's just another day I stay content with the sourSo I'll bow my head & pray for a better tomorrowYeah, it's just another day, I stay content with the sourSo I'll bow my head & I'll pray for a better tomorrow
