Grey Hairs

[Reks] [Hook] I wanted to rock them three stripes, Timbs, and Nikes Momma told me when I'm older I'll experience life But now it's all grey hairs It's all grey hairs It's all grey hairs It's all grey Thought I was old enough then to know wrong from right Momma told me when I'm older that I might see the light But now it's all grey hairs It's all grey hairs It's all grey hairs It's all grey [Reks] I pop bottles and read the good book Skipped college, man Watched top models Cuz soon they'll be hollering We made travels like Gulliver Used to be kings like Solomon Then became slaves like Tubman and then Government wanna us see us running like Harriet To avoid the establishment Of prison cell blocks Little shorties come out of the womb, ready to sell rocks Rock charms, Jesus Christ pendant covered in ice I guess my only advice Is watch jewels, gems, come with a price It's such an identity crisis How we can cop new bank gear Not care what the price is Jesus hang from a cross and now he hang from your neck Still no respect, dont' know who Christ is We are living in times of the most critical kind Grey hairs got visible lines [Hook] [Reks] Can you sense it that hopes is missing That the focus isn't there any longer children Being raised by a new age Given a new craze They listen to the beat and nod Disregard thoughts written They walking dead around us pimping And our mission is no longer to reach within 'em Our mission should be now to decrease the tension But instead we just give in to nature Label hate us cuz we don't let the radios make us different Getting grey hairs from all of that anger building I'd be lying if I said I ain't aging and sensing A bit of change in my ageless wisdom What are we to do now For the patient victims Who just wish music would return to its senses That we at some point would respect our mission And give back to rap, the greatest invention [Hook] [Reks] Hip-hop influences raised me Say, for instance, Jay-Z said the streets is watching So I kept on driving, head bobbing crazy Though the couple in the next car upset They couldn't make me Turn the volume down, my volume up And I'm a ride 'round town Blast that volume, WHAT?! But these days, these kids really don't give fuck Listening to Dip Set, now they sticking you up Take every rhyme literal, YEP! They more criminal, PLUS It's more reality to kill for a buck But how can I judge? When it's a part of the beautiful music I love They iPods full of G-Unit, the best thugs Next club, everybody in the cipher rhyming Out to get rich and die trying Dark clouds keep us out of the grey The sun rising, looking better today So I say...
