B.Keyz - Modern Life Lyrics

Escaped the cage I'm a walking display for kids with no hope
Emitting rays but don't need no shades to see I'm so dope
I'm in a race on a steady pace, and I'm lapping slow pokes
But slack a moment they in yo face when they laugh it's no joke
Avoid the circuses while you search what yo purpose is
Hope that you can surf cause they'll ride yo wave when see they don't float
Then cast away they washed up for shore gotta build they own boat
Then pail it out as it's sinking, hope someone sees and throws rope
This industry is like sailing the seven seas, but instead they selling they soul just to sell a couple cds
Steady hitting this road for these people I hope to please
While heavy hitters like Hov flood the airwaves, it's hard to breathe
But this my last pump, no longer faced with asthma
The paving the way till the cash come
Then rake it away when it adds up
I'm saving the face of the savior the pace that they're dying off I'll be the last one
Patiently waiting the days of amazing taste to return like ransoms
This here's yo anthem

I'm talking this modern life
Where you live then you die
And you just give and you try
Hope you get a new sign
And any hole inside can't be filled by nothing you buy
Where the heroes don't shine
And villains do time
I'm talking this modern life
Where we sip bottled wine
Twist one up and get high
Could tell I'm lit by my eyes
Need to escape
I've had enough
Won't fasten up for this ride
I been suffering inside
This things I wonder sometimes

Earned my stripes like I'm Jeter, let Derek see the home run
I be the base so I need a place I can see the lake front
Anita Bake I'ma give it all that it take from day 1
I got the sauce and I'm steady raising the steaks I'm A1
Rappers on they high horses I knock em off as they come
Faster than Porsches, I'll pass the torch when I have to
Im like a fortress or castle
My fortune is more than natural
Feeble avoid the battle
Torpedos I'm throwin at you
Told me to break a leg now I'm Siddin like Vicious
Any dragon I call upon betta give me my wishes
Steady building this catalog hope I ain't repetitious
And these days I'm more relaxed but never less suspicious
I'm on they back
Every direction I'm cuttin my corneas
Every corner and intersection, dissecting a foreigner
I try to take these lessons and mesh em so glorious
Every word as sharp as a weapon the message is war to ya

I'm talking this modern life
Where you live then you die
And you just give and you try
Hope you get a new sign
And any hole inside can't be filled by nothing you buy
Where the heroes don't shine
And villains do time
I'm talking this modern life
Where we sip bottled wine
Twist one up and get high
Could tell I'm lit by my eyes
Need to escape
I've had enough
Won't fasten up for this ride
I been suffering inside
This things I wonder sometimes

Keyz up
Reloading like Re-ups
They knowin' that we been hungry but no one gon' feed us
Maybe I'll disappear won't return for like 3 months
Change of seasons, no freedoms
Maybe then they might believe us
Police bucking with no reason, they leave us
Blood leaking buckets from the tee up
So please duck ain't no discussion they won't ease up
So we must pledge our Allegiance, back to these slums
Where we from
Ain't no one tucking tails, just bucking shells
Eventually get cuffed and stuffed in cells, with hopes of bail
Stuck in the cycle I know it's hell I hear your tales
I know that u hear me, but hope you feel me until it's braille
