Seven Seas Lyrics

Seven seas

Mother moon

And heavens stars

We all know

Where you going

And who you are

Let the sky guide you there

But don't go too far

When the wind cuts you thin

Learn how to wear the scars

Take a chance, risk it all

And play the cards

Never know how it ends, until the day you start

My people live in nothing

My people suffer suffer

Such is life

Uncle Sam tell me to suck it up but

We die from bullets, needles, psychological disorders

Tryna hop over the border, selling nickels for a quarter

Police kill us so I don't see much law and order

Torture

Reality is distorted

Hide yo son and yo daughter

More than

Half of my shorties been carrying forties

Since all the money in the city is hoarded

Black American and Puerto

Rican I'm speaking for all in accordance

Chicago born and raised

I know we'll see brighter days but

They say it's no rest for the wicked

So Daley and Rahm are insomniac

You kill us in cold blood everyday

But don't let us smoke in a pontiac

Every corner pour cognac

Sending bread where the county at

For the fallen ones following

Pistol keep hollowing

All the time feel like it's halloween

If you thought life was sweet

Know it can get hypoglycemic

One minute you're here and the next

They pumping your chest trynna keep you breathing

So I talk to the world when I talk to my city

Can just we find the meaning

Of life

Seven seas

Mother moon

And heavens stars

We all know

Where you going

And who you are

Let the sky guide you there

But don't go too far

When the wind cuts you thin

Learn how to wear the scars

Take a chance, risk it all

And play the cards

Never know how it ends, until the day you start

Death

Is a fixated notion

Kept in the ghetto like liquor stores

Capitalize on our trauma

And bottle emotions

Yes we sip potions

The black magic has grown so potent

Unable to see

We believe it was written

For us to be hopeless, frozen

Unaware of our similarities

Unaware of our closeness

We have houses

But we still feel homeless

So a piece of my heart is within

All I write for the echoes in chambers

I call for the savior the Blackened creator

Come cry for us father

We need you the ocean is opening

See Mambo just a vessel

I just do this for peace

So my voice can be heard

And my mission complete

But destiny we choose

And fate we can't control

So learn it while you young

So you can make it old

I know so many fools

Only the few are sages

Who work to feed the non

No matter what the wage is

So you control the story

Don't let them turn the pages

And learn the key to life

So you don't end up in their cages

I'd say this is my last wish

But this won't ever age

No, this won't ever age
