The Signs

As I sit back starin' at the ceilin'

Explorin' God's mind, tryna achieve the feelin'

Holograms of life surpass dreamin'

Escapin' strife and a life of high schemin'

Most niggas see robbin' and stealin'

A nice shortcut to livin' amongst demons

And when the red and blue lights start beamin'

Your heart starts beatin', your freedom is leakin'

Stress levels peakin', my drug use is frequent

Dippin' blacks in syrup, never bothered to freak 'em

Candy in the cup, 'cause a nigga tryna slow down

Used to smoke trees, graduated to that blow now

You niggas gookin' if you think I'm finna hold down

You fertilize hatred? Ya ass get mowed down

Y'all niggas gay like the boy band O–Town

I'm so low cold with the flow so profound

I can see past the present

The eyes don't compare to the mind

Live my life unrestricted by time

In a world that's infected with crime

I arise from the grime

I align for a sight with the signs

I can see past the present

The eyes don't compare to the mind

Live my life unrestricted by time

In a world that's infected with crime

I arise from the grime

I align for a sight with the signs

Astro the Magnificent

Is so proficient with breaking down barriers

Buddha and bad bitches

This gift was bestowed upon me in the womb

As an infant I lay in my crib singing tunes

Said my first word, "Light" at the age of one

A precursor to the shine of which was to come

The Gift of Gab seems to be dripping from my tongue

The way I captivate the minds of the old and young

A nigga fresh, a nigga fly, a nigga real

Cold as steel and I never cry

I sense pussy in your heart then I sever ties

We intercede with the greed that consume our lives

No wives, just bitches in this nightlife

Squeezing coke sacks searching for the right white

They say life's what you make it in hindsight

When it's the other way around, you know you're blind right?

Right, right

I can see past the present

The eyes don't compare to the mind

Live my life unrestricted by time

In a world that's infected with crime

I arise from the grime

I align for a sight with the signs

I can see past the present

The eyes don't compare to the mind

Live my life unrestricted by time

In a world that's infected with crime

I arise from the grime

I align for a sight with the signs
