"Born 2 Rise"

by Art Mikveh
Album: Born 2 Rise

Through my eyes
The foundation on which I stand
Unbroken
Unsilenced
By the spoken word
In a world where
Only time will tell
Through my eyes

Dead bodies on the street means no peace
Everywhere you turn it's a nightmare and tragedy
Blood stain the streets like it never did before
I open up my eyes and all I see is war
Do we even try to think
Lost in direction
Clutching on 38 caliber connection
My protection means more than the next mans'
I stand with my head up on the next plans

Birds were born to fly
Thugs were born to ride
Maybe I was born to rise
And study every lesson through my eyes

Birds were born to fly
Thugs were born to ride
Maybe I was born to rise
And study every lesson through my eyes

Just be safe because snakes they'll get ya
And it might start with your enemies picture
Listen to me I'm not cold
I'm just searching for my home
But then I get a call from my brother in the pin
I miss him dearly when will it end his misery
Of waking up in penitentiary sheets
I speak I never tried to preach
I only prayed for peace
So why did I have to bury most of my homies
It's lonely so the liquor and the weed consoles me
In my shadow tell me what you see is it just me
Or is it just another reflection of why me
Questions I ask many
Because I'm still not settled in this world like the rest
Never was it in me
To lose faith over hard lessons
Greater lessons are harder learned
I'm stressed but I'm still blessed

Birds were born to fly
Thugs were born to ride
Maybe I was born to rise
And study every lesson through my eyes

Birds were born to fly
Thugs were born to ride
Maybe I was born to rise
And study every lesson through my eyes

Yeah though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil
For thou art with me
Thy rod
Thy staff
They comfort me
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies
Thou anoint my head with oil
My cup runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever
Amen.
