Finish This Album

My quiet observations on the bus city people lost trust
Maudleys out patients are shouting with the pavements
They looking rough can't get to grips so they end up 
looking worse than shit
Maybe if I can see who there talking too I might talk to 
them to so they can prove
The spirit never lies but before I get to try the clouds 
open up and let god cry
Why is this white lady nervous cause 3 black youths come on
 so she checking were her purse is
Make me feel nervous like they aint my country like they 
don't really want me
But mummy always love me I never had a daddy it was me and 
my mummy
Mummy was my daddy I can either cry or see it as funny
How you can have a child and then just leave
Now I'm walking around with my heart on my sleeve cause I'm
 effected anytime anybody leave
You can see my scars and hear my silent screams
I been reading books to analyse my dreams and to me it 
seems
The only chance we get to make sense of it is when we put 
our heads down a little bit
That's why I'm spittin it cause each one teach one and you 
can take it how you want don

CHORUS
Right now I got a lot of work to do
I gotta smooth out my edges
Eat more vedges
Listen to my elders
Vibe with my peers
Confront my fears and
Finish this album
Right now I got a lot of work to do
I gotta represent the youth

Speak more truth
Eat more fruit
Get wise with my years
Confront my fears and
Finish this album

But it seems I get side tracked it's like a mind trap I get
 a call real late bout were the foods at
Cause certain man a certain place got certain food to taste
 so my Nikes are laced
And I was never really one to stay awake through a working 
day for them little bit pay yo
This nine to five is just killing me slowly but quitting is
 for quitters so I wait until they fire me
But now no one will hire me cause I got more lies in my CV 
than a pro's had STD's
When will they see I was born to reign entrapment is my 
pain I need to feel alive again
I need a man that compliments my stride ovastand I'm this 
way until I die
Has ambitions of his own so ovastand i don't wanna be alone
 I just need a little time in my zone
This one goes out to my shotters in the alleys were all 
brothers and sisters were all family
All my sisters trying to raise there babies all the youth 
man with court cases crazy
It's like the smarter you are the bigger your worries 
stupid people are lucky trust me
This one goes out to my people with ambition I'm still 
learning I'm still trying but for now

Honesty is courage and since I got the heart of a lion then
 there's no sense in lying
I portray my life over violins no matter what it brings 
least I'm being real
When I look at my future I fear failure I fear the fact 
that you might not like me
I know I'm skilled but just maybe slightly what if my light
 don't shine so brightly
I'm scared of that I'm telling you the truth I'm scared of 
that

What if the doctor said you couldn't have children
What if the system they tried to topple what I'm billing 
better living for all my ghetto children
And I don't mean were you live I mean your state of mind
Cause ghettos not just a place ghetto is a vibe
And I don't need no boastie words or complicated flows
If I know what I gotta do then I flow
But sometimes I get tired sometimes I lose faith I guess 
that's the reason that we got to church
Cause when you at the bottom of the barrel it hurts need 
something to believe in and God works You think spiritual 
is just hocus pocus what you really saying is you have not 
noticed
Inside us all is a silent protest you can acknowledge or 
ignore but me.
