EL FUDGE - Dimmin' The Life lyrics

Yo

Wakin up to nothing everyday

With my mind permanently runnin astray

Runnin away

I'm tryin to catch up

But I'm backed up

With all forms of individual frustrations

Makin my skull crack up

There's a thin line between drugs and Jakes

No one's perfect

And they can't afford makin a mistake

Money wells dried up a long...time ago

It's not easy at it was befo'

It's like

Tryin to put food on a table.

With no arms.

It's difficult reapin what you sow

With no yarn

Workin to eat...eatin to work

The same rituals

Beatin up on your physical

We need a Robin Hood to come about these towns

To-

Steal from the rich

And invest it in to a poor man's playground

Instead of you so laid down

Face down

Like corrupt cops

They lie tellin us the hatred is no longer around

[CHORUS:]

What are we supposed to do

Or-

Say, in order to

Do away with the ha-

-tred of today

[x2]

[VERSE 2:]

(yo-yo)

I'm fightin a war of what's wrong and what's right

Every single day in my life

Haven't found a job payin me right

Not lookin forward to see day light

I see break at night

Wastin my life

Thinkin to myself:

The year of the Heisman diploma is over

It's all about the connections you got and who you've known longer

I thought I'd grown stonger

Than the average

But this hatred seperation in this nation

Put me in a situation I simply can't manage

I don't seem to understand it

I'm stuck in between a rock and a hard place in this American granite

They even got society eyin' me

Invadin my privacy

They even got camera's on traffic lights watchin me

Claimin thatthey stoppin me

>From commitin crimes

While ya slowly shortenin the size of Public Assistance lines

So how you even gunna build the nerve to tell me that hatred no longer exists

in America

[Man talking:]

"I'm sayin tho, come on, what is you talkin about

Tryin to take it back to sock or something

You know

"Word"

"He's buggin out and stuff"

"Word"

[VERSE 3:]

But yo

It's time to become the Olympic torch holders

Releasin ourselves from these modern day tortures

Soldiers

Relievin each other

From the clutches of snakes

Like fakes on headed shoulders

Holdin it down like gravity does boulders

That's how we got to do it

You know how the sayin goes:

"Move it or lose it"

Either chose to defuse it or go out ruthless

We can never be stopped if we unite, (hell no)

As long as we're properly guarded through the darkness with the use of light

Sleepin through nights

Might be hard for some days

But the endin results'll soon pay

We'll uncover the fondness inside y'all like a toupe'

I'm about to uplift my sword into the air and yell out TOUCHE'

I'm one of the many people you grazed

With the constitutional bullet of hatred

And now ya highly hated

And I'll be damned if i don't say it

I'll be damned if don't say it

[CHORUS x2]

"Yo, gotta get rid of this

Do away with the hatred of today

Do away with it

Do away with the hatred of today

I'm sick of it son

It's like I had to talk about it a lil summin summin

But yo, it's all good

L-Fudge

Uh, uh

L-i, L-i

Q-u...i-b

F-u

F-u

Yo f-u-d-g-e

Yeah yeah, Bridge Boogey
