Matt Zephyr - 1 Minute (feat. Abstract)

1 minute
14 years old
Freezing my ass in the cold
Hanging out with low life criminals
And getting my nose lost in the piles of snow
1 minute
Just a fucking kid
With a life to live
But accomplishments are where the shadows hid
You can keep your pity bro I don't need this
Yeah it lasts 1 minute
1 minute for a life that you can't get back
Now you got 10gs chilling in your backpack
And you run from the cops tryna keep it intact
Yeah it's just 1 minute
1 minute for a life that you can't escape
For a face in the mirror that you fucking hate
For a life full of death and a deal with the devil that you couldn't pay
5 years I've dealt with this
5 years is a lot to give
For a minute bro I think of this
And I can't bring myself to common sense nah
1 minute is a little time
But it doesn't take long to corrupt the mind
So It took 5 years and I'm doing fine
But I still can't stand the sight of a line nah
1 minute for a day of pain
For a bit of dark where the light remains
For the great divide to corrupt the game
For the solitude to erupt the rain yeah
1 minute for a call to send
For a few to fall
For a dying friend
Kick it up take pleasure in life again
Cause I can't let you be allowed to end nah
Tell me that you crazy
Yeah I promise that you're not
Yeah we always wanna party
Cause we're all afraid to drop
Man I know that medication
Takes ahold into your brain
So we drink until the dawn
Until we start it up again ya
Tell me that you miss it
Getting faded all the time
Yo that's not a way to live
Pushing drugs into your mind
Maybe one day we will grow
Or even better take control
Of the demons in our brain
And the pills that we swallow
Leaning on a crutch for the rush
Outta sight outta mind outta touch
Lose it all for the calm in the buzz
Who you call when it's all that you trust
Landed on a planet and you're tryna understand it
But the circumstances handed isn't what you thought it was
Cause the thing that they're demanding cost a soul and a buck
And the hand dealt always been the one to press your luck
Dark days but you gotta part ways with all of your dark ways in order to move to the light
Demons on parade when you serenade ways to replace fear with a pill slave to the plight
Treat the body and the soul like it's made for the flight
Gotta know what you already hold's made for the fight
Strike gold once you realize you were made for the height
Know that every other choice doesn't live up to the hype
Sick of getting faded bro you do that all the time
So it's time to talk some truth when all these other rappers lie
Yo the powder and the syrup can't distract your thinking mind
From your problems and your family so stop saying that you're fine
You gotta wake up one day say it's over bro
Never take a look back headed for the open road
Take a minute to respond to comments on my videos
Thinking about the powder and the cash behind the bullet holes
I'm afraid that I fell in that trap
It was always up to me to get up on the right track
Now I got a bunch of people always guarding my back
Never let a molecule take over like that
Never thought I'd ever do rap
Talk about my feelings never was an easy task
Now I got a bunch of people always up my ass
Cause they never realize I'm a man in a broken mask
Touché you can call me crass
But you could maybe chill a little if you stick to grass
Fuck a doctor saying pills will make your illness pass
Take a Xanax shut the fuck up never fucking come back
Tell me that you crazy
Yeah I promise that you're not
Yeah we always wanna party
Cause we're all afraid to drop
Man I know that medication
Takes ahold into your brain
So we drink until the dawn
Until we start it up again ya
Tell me that you miss it
Getting faded all the time
Yo that's not a way to live
Pushing drugs into your mind
Maybe one day we will grow
Or even better take control
Of the demons in our brain
And the pills that we swallow
