Enemies Lyrics by Christopher Sone Franklin

Illuminate

2020

Opening scene its 2003
Gunslingers on every corner
Selling pounds of that weed
Every move that I take
Is another inch towards death
And I ain't claiming no sets
So I gotta watch where I step
There ain’t no time for no rest
I gotta keep them eyes open
Gunshots ringing off
I got my mom hoping
That I'm coming home tonight
Gotta keep your mind focused
Fast-forward 2020
Got me scared of a vision
Cause these kids are constantly watching TV
Like peas in a pod
And the pod that they're casting
Is casting a net
And the net got them trapped in the trap
Did they actually capture the monster?
Is it part of a set?
Are they set up for disaster?
Are their brains on reset?
Are they selling their souls
To the beast in their flesh?
Is their brain lost?
Ain’t no telling what the brain costs
And they act like they act
Cause watching these actors and rappers
They act like monsters, can't you see?
They got me riding with my enemies
They say to keep ‘em close
So here goes a toast
To all of my enemies
They say to keep the focus
But I can't focus riding with my enemies
Backtrack one year its 2002
Skipping school with older kids
Cause I thought it was cool
Hit the park midday
Backpack full of brew
From a far skateboarders
Pulling tricks on the stoop
Getting filmed camcorder
Man I thought it was cool
But the kids that I was with
Man you know they were goons
All they seen was the money
So I guess its time to get robbed
Till the stabbing happened
Matter fact it had me get scarred
Now my life is in jeopardy
Wheels are turning discrepancies in my story
Can have me locked up for life
There's no rescuing
Now I'm out
There's no resting
Cause I'm constantly wrestling
With the neighborhood
Trying to kill my family no evidence
Scared of life that is threatening
Where there's nothing that’s promised
I’m no longer a resident in the place that arrested me
Ankle bracelet they are testing me for narcotics
It's stressing me but I’m glad cause it taught me how to see
