KWANE - Into The Gray Lyrics
I want you to sway into the grayInto the limelight, just drift awayI want you to sway into the grayInto the limelight, just drift awayTears falling down your brown skinDon't worry about the down time, you know I be around thenBut when it's busy hustle bustle, social life and business tussleTherefore something's gotta suffer, they say muscle strengthens muscleSo I arm wrestle time, juggle my obligationsCan't see you tonight, sorry I kept you waitingI great new opportunities with salutationsAs I witness my relationships' devaluationBut in the future I see millions, record deals, and business dealingsMarble floors and high? taking trips to martha's vineyardsDon't tell me that ain't appealing, baby, we can make a killingPerhaps it's killing off our spirit when chasing paperOur sensibilities get off, our principalities evolveThere's no humility at all, so apathetic to it allDamn, baby, what the ***** we gonna do?That's just a gray area we run into, we run intoI want you to sway into the grayInto the limelight, just drift awayI want you to sway into the grayInto the limelight, just drift awaySuch is life, it's just like thatIt's not white, it's not black, there's no truth, there's no factsJust ideas and feelings, we living as childrenJust kids blown up by ageBut I start growing up with all the rageI missed the days of numbers, two pencilsAnd tracing with stencilsOur young minds are the tools by the untouched souls€˜cause float free, gravity hasn't got a hold of usBut now depravity's controlling usYou never know what might just happenMy life has been unsettled since I started rappingThe homie kenny lost his hit and now he started trappingAnd then literally lost his head when niggas started clappingGod bless him, we pull our liquor for them niggas in rockersThey got they pictures, see, my life is unsettled and off the hingesSo many stances seem blasphemous, still we prayStill you follow me into the grayI want you to sway into the grayInto the limelight, just drift awayI want you to sway into the grayInto the limelight, just drift awayFor what is a promise, a promise is easy brokenWhat's the point of a gesture if it's just a tokenAll my eggs in one basket, same one I put my hopes inSo no time for time off or crossing old friends that might dieWe close palms and pray to the nice godThe most real, the most high, the most death, the most flyThe most truth, the most lieYour aura glows inside the eyeColor celestial lover, a thing of wonderHeart shaped shadows block out the sunlightThe razor dumb bright, reminders of all the shit that you gotta doMandatory grad school just to get a leg upWhy do you gotta *****ing go in debt to get your bread up?It's backwards, yo, evil way, I hope it pays off, thoughMaybe my views are just way off, yoIn this ambiguous world we must embrace the grayAnd in the name of tomorrow we sacrifice todayI love youI want you to sway into the grayInto the limelight, just drift awayI want you to sway into the grayInto the limelight, just drift away
