The Grateful Dead Lyrics by Moe Pope

Life After God

0

[Chorus]
The grateful dead
[Verse 1]
I woke up fresh, blessed that I see a new day
At nighttime, I felt dreams slipping away
So when the sun had brushed my face
I was happy to say that it's a beautiful morning
The blinds can't hide the light poured in
So then, God led them breathe one more again
So I should probably thank him for one more sin
One more dream to push and pick up my chin
And I've been lost for a while though, sick of the same old
Every day's a rerun, same rules to follow
People on the chain go to work, souls hollow
Lost in the wilderness, caught in the trap
Mines on they textbooks, bills on they back
Can't smile no more so we die more, get high more
Shuffle on the edge
Taxes and feds, funds in the reds
As we settle for less, the grateful dead
[Chorus]
The grateful dead
The grateful dead
The grateful dead
The grateful dead
[Verse 2]
Yo, I live in bricks, sell bricks to feed mouths
With many years and the rear's on the bill pile
I see [?]like countdowns
Minutes like screams from fiends in the backgrounds
Telling me that I fall down easy
Pops didn't want me, friends didn't need me
My lady walked off, got kicked out, got clipped
Got sick, got stuck to my worth
And I ain't saying they wrong for taking my chromes
I'm just saying motherfucker it hurts, let's go
They hit on my women, they shit on my name
They even wrote me out the bio
So every time I step to a microphone
I'm singing songs about survival
The dead
[Chorus]
The grateful dead
The grateful dead
The grateful dead
The grateful dead, the dead
The grateful dead
The grateful dead
The grateful dead
The grateful dead
[Bridge]
Don't sell yourself to fall in love
Don't sell yourself to fall in love
Don't sell yourself to fall in love
Don't sell yourself to fall
