Eyes Wide Open Lyrics

[Verse]
Yo; Podcasting; telecasting
Rap fanatics be like chicks and scream my name when climaxing
Fasting off hip hop, non stop
Scribner Hill set in stone like palm prints on concrete blocks
And I give shots to my people
Hard work deceives you, want a dollar's smirk
Lust for more perks, you got that honest curse
They caught your eyes rolling
Wanna skip the stress and give the D to all the chicks with they legs open
Simplest, yet hopeless
Sofa's for lounging when the weed got you boneless
Don't toke this, choke on it like Eminem's first start into showbiz
No disrespect
Only kids half step to make the cash come correct
Check them specs, 'cause the world is a lens
The way it's viewed, it depends on who view it
And how it represents they ideals and ideologies
Fuck a buck, my depiction of rap is like astrology
Star struck, space odyssey
'Cause it's either the herb, to get ya higher than Mars
Or the cash, to get ya dome feeding off power and it's fantasies
So I bust bars to optimum
'Cause it's either rap, or sling with kids who pack heat like nobodies' stopping them
They convey, that nigga Jose spending 360 days
Everyday, 'till his sentence astray

For what? Momma never told me
I see her writing letters to the penitentiary

But I guess it's personal to her
Don't wanna tell me 'cause I leak the info to my pops who is in rivalry

But it's the same shit in the game
Not even in it yet, but I could see why these names on billboard fame is a facade
Of what's true to they face

That's why they pray to Allah, who hold the cross like it's raw emotion
In front of lights, cameras and action they boasting they image
But behind the lens it's contracts with blood signage

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
