Foresight in Hindsight - Discrepancies

You need to get a job you need to go back to school

This isn’t proper all you do is act a fool

Look at Tim, don’t you remember he was your friend

He’s a lawyer you could have been just like him

I’m a give him a call now, tell me how does that sound

And turn that crap down please you are such a child

It’s not music it’s foul and it’s way too loud

You really need to settle down and make grandma proud

First of all grandma likes my shit so go ahead and call Tim, no I insist

And ask him about the job that he loves so much

And how he would give it all up just to rock with us

The way I see it I would rather rock this place

Cause I can rise out of misery and shock the state

I could literally change lives with the vibes I make

Or I could give it up and rot at a job I hate

Now that sounds tempting but thanks I’ll pass

It’s not me and I’m sorry that it makes you mad

But when I’m old I would rather look back at the past knowing in my heart I

gave it everything I had

Bigger and better things I’m not trying to be mean

I got love for the music and love for the scene

I respect your opinion but lately it seems

I could either follow your rules or follow my dreams

The path to the future is hard to see

Don’t stand still and let it pass you by by

Don’t let it pass you by

You stay complacent, I hate the thought

It’s too basic so face it we’re taking off

I look up to my elders, they paid the cost

But I’ll take what they say with a grain of salt

I’ll be the first to confess to invest is smart

So I’ll invest my heart in my reckless art

And gain acceptance from legends who set the bar

Think not, better check my repertoire

Enter into the mind of miracles intertwined

With wicked lyric artillery dropping at any time

It really be killing me when they chopping with iffy rhymes

Get chopped up and screwed behind enemy lines

I know the rappers can’t stand em

They try to stack up the antics

And then they happen to panic

You cannot battle a cannon

I’m sick and tired of this standing

About to rattle the planet

And ride off into the galaxy you probably can’t understand it

But I’m headed to the top and I know I’m gone shine

Coming down with a Hardy Boy Swanton Bomb

The path to the future is hard to see

Don’t stand still and let it pass you by by

Don’t let it pass you by

This world is cold, this we all know

Just something you gotta deal with

Some search far, high and low

For somebody to keep it real with

Some grab a disc of their favorite mix

And sit an reminisce and let their minds roam

When the music hits you lose your shit

Cause that line made sense and it really hits home

Your tears and the beat drop at the same time

Racing for your heart until they reach the bass line

Then you fall apart as they hit their mark

Like straight to your chest point blank in the dark

These artist are marksman, we rarely miss

We hold on to the things you can barely grip

A padded room and straight jacket that barely fits

Like a walk in the park when compared to this

We amplify everything you feel inside

It doesn’t matter what you feel cause you feel alive

Kill the lies, don’t ever let them kill your pride

Keep it up, have faith, keep real alive

Just vibe to the music

You can’t hide from the music

But you can decide how to use it

Or you can stand by just watch it die

Then we can all sing bye bye miss American Pie

The future is here now

No time left for fear now

The future is here now

It’s time for us to stand out

Sometimes the future is frightening

But if you stand still life will break you down

Now all my doubts are behind me

Need to get out and take it

Don’t let it pass you by
