Barbed Wire Lyrics by Deep Magenta

Dreams of Reality

2021

I pick up the pen and write venomous bars
Depicting a world without veteran scars
Depending on losses to better our hearts
I stare at the ceiling and picture the stars
If you got potential you gotta stay live
Or better yet find a home where you can thrive
Cause legends never make it past 25
You’re lucky if you can see with the third eye
The vision of joey and Capital STEEZ
The music, the money, thеir albums are threes
So they can get paid and fill thеir void of greed
Their pockets are full but they never exceed
The realest of lyrics, they come from inside
Reflecting and rapping the moments we cried
Our spirits will run and put pen to the side
Concepting of nothing when you don’t see pride
My hands are bleeding but I’m not defeated
Until I stand up and say we need a change
I scrape and I man up so I can be leading
So I find a plan that works to rearrange
The wire is sharp and the future is dark
But the greatness doesn’t come without sacrifice
Can’t trust anybody when you hit your mark
So you must carry on the story of your life
Gotta make it clear that I never went through this
I need to make a change so I do it through music
Lotta fears made whenever there’s a shooting
Need obedience or else movements turn to movies
Stereotypes lead to people and grouping
Write your own stories, it’s never concluding
Chances are tiny, but they’re never ruined
At the end of the day, we’re all human
We’re all human
