Chorus [Amel Larrieux]

You live, you die

And spend the years in between asking the question

Why you've been through what you been

You lose, you win

You even pay for other sins

But you must always adore the skin you are in



[Black Thought]

I woke up and it was pouring down rain

I put my head on, it really wasn't no thing

One of them days I was feeling immune to the pain

Threw on, Alice Coltrane, smoked and sang

And wrote this flame compused to the rhythm of the droplets

And went whispering simliar to gossip

The kick slapping at the window glass

Slow down the globe so it don't spin too fast

Because, I been running like a river since

The age of my early innocence

It just made me ambitious

My grams used to tell me
