Stone Like Me

[Chorus:] From where I stand on the cold concrete Feel it in my bones and the soles of my feet What’s that? Strength from my folks underneath With all that’s going on though, I hope you got peace [Verse 1: Stik Figa] And the hardest part of life became the easiest The older that I get, reconciling all the sequences Archive the memories, recall, retrieving it Recipe for disaster substitute ingredients It’s hot in the kitchen can’t sweat no conveniences Let it all fall in the batter loves tedious Labor of it all please have a piece of it Confection and critique of it And see how bittersweet it is Committed this egregious sin, which I plead the fifth In the court of your opinion do I need defense? Being judged by my peers do I need repent Drowning in my own conscious though, its sink or swim And the devil’s hella busy trying to cripple my faith Placing seeds of doubt in a difficult space But what’s new? These here are critical days They did the same thing to Christ offered to triple his wage Won’t answer any riddles or give any praise Conflicts of interest are you willing to change I say [Chorus] [Verse 2: Has-Lo] Giving on the fountain that retains my youth My illusion is a jewel, I entertain the muse Sitting on the pedestal, nothing ever moves ?never do a dap, it's the apathy do? Know that I embrace what I can't control 'til I'm out of my death, til I finally rest Til the angel in the road lift me out of my flesh And my soul turns to energy, a sinner's relief All the buzz words and fluff terms apart To ever be a star, you must learn to chart The smart take heed, the wise When you're always right you begin to miss being surprised Every day my eyes open up, shades are drawn I awake [?] any side that I face are wrong? But still, I pull up, chin up the bar [?] A man like you call a million a mar? So I say [Chorus]
