American Horror Story Lyrics

Life is a gift

This world is a curse

Things can be better

But shit could be worse

Gotta stay driven

No living in reverse

I ain't come to play

So i don't rehearse

It's my turn safe to say i got the Right away came from the dark

Now i shine like a brighter day

Born alone die alone

That's the way that life goes

I come from the same place

Where they found derrick rose And they killed fred hampton

Life expectancies is low

Close schools open prisons

Cause they think we all slow

Too high to ask why

Talking fast and thinking slow

Wanna get rich but you can't Because yo spirit po

Faith with out work is dead

That's just something you should Know broaden your horizons

Some seeds need room to grow Deeply rooted like the trees

They hung my ancestors from

Not appalled by how it's been

I knew that these days would come

Life is a gift

This world is a curse

Things can be better

But shit could be worse

Gotta stay driven

No living in reverse

I ain't come to play

So i don't rehearse

Hungry for the truth

But you feeding me lies

They reward stupidity

And punish the wise

If you ask the right question

It could be yo demise

Most people dumb it down Because the scared to rise

So they remain superseded Depressed and oppressed

Live in fear of speaking up

Scared to end up like the rest

Mlk showed me that i could dream Malcolm said by any means

Huey gave me black power

Taught me how to form a team

Never let these wicked devils Separate what we create

In this crooked world they kill you

If you try to set it straight Hoodwinked bamboozle

Most of us been lead astray

Living in this dark times

Praying for a brighter day

Life is a gift

This world is a curse

Things can be better

But shit could be worse

Gotta stay driven

No living in reverse

I ain't come to play

So i don't rehearse
