Ups and Downs

[Verse 1: Classified] Damn another migraine, visions blurred eyes strained I need another gel cap ‘cause once this headache hits it’s a short trip to hell and back I got too much on my mind The lifestyle I lead got my health on decline I ain’t as quick thinking as I once was I guess that’s what smoking J'S and blunts does Even my free style is getting worse I’m losing it, can’t connect the missing words And everybody wanna get a verse But when I say I got no time that get the feelings hurt Daddy, hey what’s up baby girl? You’re the only thing that make sense in this crazy world Through all the madness and the sickness, I know that I can look to you for love and forgiveness What’s your mama doing, oh she’s cooking dinner Daddy gotta write the song, go on and cook with her I’ll be in soon, soon as I get finish And tell your mama get the laundry done and do the dishes But who we kidding can’t even do that right I mean I can but my mind stuck on half life I’m trying to find somebody I could pass the mic Who got the drive, that will make the same sacrifice I did Yeah I signed a couple guys but I guess I didn’t do my job At least in they're eyes I wasted too much time and some dope beats But it’s back to the grind, same old me The suns shining again, satisfaction, oh Canada IT just went platinum I’m hitting plateaus I never thought my rap flow would hit And actually make a real cash flow off this shit Last year I felt like I was everywhere They even heard me from Regis and Kelly's chair The Olympics the Juno's I did it, all of this All from one song I’ll admit it Am I a one hit wonder?, I don’t think I am But the thought crossed my mind then I erased it And for the video we asked everybody out No black people show, then they called me racist Maestro told me: "Stay off the message boards Classy" Well I’m sick of all these rap geeks talking out their ass cheeks Hanging off every word, class speaks, but anyway that’s last week This week yo I’m about to move out, I just bought a couple acres And built a new house, shit it feels good to be doing what I love And knows who hate fuck you, I earn what I got I used to think that money changes a man Now I’m thinking that it changes those around you A lot of people wanna hang on, and drown you So I gotta watch the people who surround Luke I know who my friends are, it'll reflect in my memoirs Life is a trip, a joy and challenges I just got to learn to live it and balance it
