[Verse 1:]
So many shades of blue colored on this window pane
I need the rain to come again and wash away the pain
I'm tired of situations where I'm getting stuck again
The way I'm use to livin' life'll never be the same
Pay attention to that low hanging fruit
That's the apple of your dream
One bite I'll forever be asleep
I was Adam leading Eve
Except I never let her near the tree
I was praying for the lord to keep us clean
Now I know that I may struggle with my own walk
Sittin' in this hourglass
Tears streamin' feel like waterfalls how they flow and crash
Never greener on the other side
I had to mow the grass
The way you live your life is how you make it, why'd you make it bad?
Hopin' for a change, stuck in your ways and never givin' back
Gave up everything I ever wanted cause it's all I had
Double, triple that and pay it forward how I'm givin' back
That's how I'm giving back
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
See what's a dollar really worth
See what's a dollar really worth when I can't afford the cost of living
Even when I die it's still gon cost a pretty penny
Spending up my last till it's my last day out here living in a system
That's been pickin' through my pockets for that dollar I been saving for a rainy day
On them porches they been tryna smoke the pain away
And all my angels out here fallin' tryna make a way
They keep us boxed in
In them projects
Making jeans without no pockets
You gon point it
Better pop it
Ain't no saving Grace
Look me in my eyes and you can tell I died a thousand times before this life was mine
My spirits so divine
I crossed the line a couple times to take what's mine
I had to learn that consequences truly burn
The path I walk of true discernment
Unrehearsed, I never put on shows for people's entertainment
Flip it in reverse
Go play it back
Now that's yo entertainment
I never put on shows for people's entertainment
Flip it in reverse
Go play it back
Now that's yo entertainment
[Chorus]
[Outro:]
Shades of blue
