Away Lyrics by ModernDay Malcolm

Planet Paradox EP

0

[Verse 1: ModernDay Malcolm]
ModernDay Malcolm, but I never met Malcolm X they took him
Like a past-life
Feels like I'm past life, ascending to the skies
I'm reaching for God's hands, but I'm looking in Satan's eyes
Trying to escape my mind, but my thoughts are screaming
It's like I'm going crazy trying to evade my demons
Am I a sane mane cooped up, up in this mad world
Or am I a mad man, on my journey to get heard
Writing down every thought, even the ones that hurt
Give me the answers to the questions that my mind provokes
Cause in my past I've seen wild things, call me kaleidoscope
When I was 15 I watched a man loose his life behind the scope
But that was behind the scenes
But I couldn't be no bitch
Had to grab my lima beans
And find a way to cope
But sometimes I wish I could take it all...

[Hook: ModernDay Malcolm]
Take me (away, away)
Take me (away, away)
Just take me (away, away)
Take me (away, away)
Take me (away, away)
Just take me (away, away)

[Verse 2: ModernDay Malcolm]
And my last girl said she's waiting for nobody
But now she's holding up my lobby
I swear these hoes need hobbies
She's trying to live so fast so she's running like Harriet Tubman
Those ex-pills got you feeling your freedom but what happened to being a woman
All this chaos from a recession
So you better keep your piece, survival lessons for the adolescent
Cause these streets will show mercy for no man
You may have heard that life's a bitch but trust me homie it don't slow dance
You may have heard that life's a bitch but trust me homie it don't slow dance
You may have heard that life's a bitch but trust me homie it don't slow dance
Can I kick it like Phife Dawg
I need a break from this war that I fight y'all
Internal battles in my dorm with the lights off
Equipped with a pen and pad as my sword and my right guard
I fear that nobody will listen so I write God
He said to follow intuition and go hard
Capitalize on your position and get yours
It's too late to drop the pin or the pad, the gift's yours
But I have some fears of this future that I set forth
Cause I refuse to be a puppet on this course
Will I get thrown back in the box when the get bored
Or will I die like Pac, tryna stop what's in store
When they take me
