A Day In The Life Lyrics by Shad

Reel Speakers

2024

[Verse]
To quote Big, "I'm not from Houston, but I Rap-A-Lot"
Snap a lot, open and close this app a lot
Honestly on my Macintosh
These fake kings are from a castle called "Cap-a-lot"
I'm laid-back and nap a lot, just in shorter stretches
Creatively I'm sort of restless, even though I just said I rested before
Guess I'm more complex and I spread an important message
Expressing all my thanks and requests before I order breakfast
That's just a slice of a day in the life
Babies and wife
Can't wait for inspiration to strike, I just write
Crazy stories like Arabian Nights
They say this black boy's brighter than some stadium lights
Rwandese taught me manners
But indeed this Canadian's nice
With the pen all the phrasing precise
Blazing the mics
Look, they say the people seeing reels, don't wanna see the real
Just comedy on the feed, they want the Key and Peele
No problem, I give them honesty and feels
Regardless, never daunted by economy and deals
Dawg, I'm different, I been that gym rat
Made income and interest but I'm in this for the impact
Rap isn't something you can win at, or bring back
It's freedom within the limits of the rhythms and syntax
Facts (Ahh)
(Ahh) It's here
Yeah
My songs say some stuff that's tough to hear
I'm holding up the mirror
No Justin-Spears musketeer, no puppet here
Plus man, it's been a couple years
So much corruption
No trust, just fear
More homeless, though there's so much construction, weird
More luxury but more suffering
Poor judgment
I still got a lot to say
They saying A.I. can say it
Satan, not today
Same on and off the stage
I don't rap to complicate or puzzle you
But like a puzzle to put things in proper place, then walk away
Fight the good fight, push to put right what we should, until its good night
Good rest for a good life
They say I cook like a three star chef
Let's see what he achieves with even three bars left
Maybe world peace like he's artest
"Anything is possible", if you believe Garnett
We'll reach our best
Dopest style, I run the show
Like I wrote the pilot
(Ahh) I don't promote the violence
Been woke as open eye-lids
I make this post and then I'm back to my oath of silence
Holding fam close and smiling
Look, I never had to dress sharp
Never had the guest stars
(Ahh) I came correct before IG gave the checkmarks
Eckhart Tolle meets Brett Hart
Best bars, you wanna rewind, but also wanna hear the next part
