LYRICS...
Verse 1:
yo I lay down this dedication as I write through tears
for all the peers who been by me through the last few years
I traded life for the wax under one bright flame
in exchange I received the gift to write real pain
I must explain cuz of u, often days get blue
describe the daily fear I have of barely makin it through
I say to u, its outdated and its way overdue
but none the less, i'll dedicate this to u (i'll dedicate this to u)
it's like i'm tryna find the places where the competent live
cuz now a days people don't raise responsible kids
dyin to live, I wonder why i'm tryin to give
when it's a struggle just to finance my life as it is
I said the music and the marketing moves are updating
but my friends only takin my ends is frustrating
all alone i've been helpin u to weather the storm
but now are friendships are severed and torn
u wonder why...
Chorus (Ray Dalton):
movin' on, movin on' towards this light I see
(towards this light I see)
i'm movin' on, i'm movin on towards this light I see
(towards this light I see)
movin' on, movin on' towards this light I see
(towards this light I see)
i'm movin' on, i'm movin on towards this light I see
(towards this light I see)
Verse 2:
y'all live a limited existence, half alive in the sand
u'll die before u transition from a child to a man
21 I keep u clean like ur 11 with bibs
and when we chill, shit its like i'm 37 with kids
on vacation, 3 months in this cast, I stand patient
though u've lost 6 months of my past in translation
yo, then u go off to college mountains away
thinkin i'm alone back at home countin the days
and y'all are fucked up but ur actions no longer alarm me
cuz unless ur lonely chances are that u wont call me
it's been over 6 years and my flows havent blown up
and my friends still haven't got real or grown up
but, I guess i'm gifted with the style of a star
i'm tired of feelin like the father to child that u are
I said i'm sick of it, so listen cuz i'm rappin for real
ur never holdin up ur half of the deal
thats all i'm sayin...
Chorus
Verse 3:
yea, I want us all to roll above all
though frustrated, yo, theres no debating that I love y'all
I see and understand that tryna be my friends a struggle
and that most the moments spent inside my life are often troubled
my writing isn't perfect but this gist of its true
fool I fully understand I can be difficult too
my priorities are selfish while I wrestle this biz
and try to make it while I die inside depression that lives
but it seems so bleak, the world around me feels so incomplete
from the monday morning till the sunday when I go to sleep
nothin changes, my scenery, I see the same trip
same job, same fuckin problems and the same shit
I used to see y'all act dumb and let the shit go
like yea, I know were young and u'll eventually grow
but man i've spent a lot of tickin seconds sitting and debating
tryna figure if u'll change or if i'll continue waiting
I aint write this to offend u but to tell u what ive been through
I wish u'd understand but yet u cant even begin to
ur old now, u gotta grow, I know u got it in u
time to change man or I aint fuckin witchu
so i'll sing this to u...
Chorus
2nd Chorus (Ray Dalton):
u might say that ur mistakes mean nothing
u might say that u wont take no more
u cant see that all the pain means something
u cant see cuz all the pain aint yours
u might say that ur mistakes mean nothing
u might say that u wont take no more
u cant see that all the pain means something
u cant see cuz all the pain aint yours
