Recollect Lyrics by Example US

Impulses

0

[Verse 1: Dekay]
Never thought I could or would, say goodbye
To this lifestyle of mine, caught up in the rhyme
A dreamer roamin' in the streets
Yo, it seems that the shit'll never change
But we gotta do things 'cause yo, I got a queen
Look into her eyes, frustration, told her that I was out of line
Get some kids of mine in a one story house in the tray
My own little dream, now reality at the present
Learnin' lessons by the second, grab the microphone
Like I'ma wreck it, relapse into depression
Regrets to the dues and abuse in my youth
To the non-believers, the overseers gonna guide us to a new horizon
While the eagle's be collidin', me and Ciph, we gotta do this drive
Ayo, we gotta keep the focus, we gotta do the best
At what we're known to do and say goodbye to the stress

[Chorus]
Never thought I'd do it, sung goodbye
Never thought I'd do it, sung goodbye

[Verse 2: Dekay]
We way out there, we way out there
We gotta get some money nigga
I pull the trigger everytime my vocal hit the speaker
Feelin' weak 'cause I've been sick for two months
Can't afford no medication, O.J. and toilet tissue
It's time to say goodbye to the same old thing
[?] hold your head high
Be aware the good lies in every situation you're faced with
I know 'cause with twenty somethin' years on this planet
Went from homebound to all around the world in a day
Cuss other player, Example's cuttin' through the layers
To get to the core, you see it's in the nature to be the best
No more no less, we on a mission
To say goodbye to stress and take control of how we livin'
Example is the name and to life is a description
We gotta say goodbye to this crazy life we livin'

[Chorus]
Never thought I'd do it, sung goodbye
Never thought I'd do it, sung goodbye

[Verse 3: Dekay]
I can recollect, remember in the winter
The fall of '93, show me W.S.C
Thoughts of secondary education
To fulfill the dreams of American's far up and wide
The dream ain't mine
My words and rhyme forms, immaculate like the son of Jehovah
Time to say goodbye 'cause you know we barely gettin' over
Smokin' swisher sweets in my dorm room
Lookin' at these food chocolates, athletic
Sometimes they come in threes
Put your ass, now youse a better man over women
But you didn't see it comin', that's why we had to say goodbye
Take the corner back, the soft talkin' southern Mac Daddy
Yo, we only got played one time
Bad choice of Kitty Kat
She shared the name of a whole nation
Crews and Caucasians left with no debatin'
I never had a chance to express myself
He never had a chance to express himself
We never had a chance to express ourselves
But we glad you gone 'cause it's on

[Chorus]
Never thought I'd do it, sung goodbye
Never thought I'd do it, sung goodbye
