Smile (Feat. Ken Oak.)

Smile smile smile for me Why don'tcha smile you can be free In a little while your heart will see Just like a child smile for me Yo stress is eatin' me alive Can't enjoy a moment even worry on the rise 9 times out of 10 when you stop to smell the roses Is when the opposition sneaks right under your noses I keep my eyes open for enemies and fakes My body's gettin' tired how long can they wait What's it gonna take one mistake and they nail ya Mama can't wait 'til she can label me a failure 50 in the hole and it's blurring out my vision Sometimes I really wonder if I made the right decision The future of my seed in the hands of my homies One's in and out the other's duckin from the police I reciprocate work my fingers to the bone 7 days a week in this shitty studio I got one hope if it's gone then it's all bad But Catch never sleep what if he dies in a car crash Smile smile smile for me Why don'tcha smile you can be free Yo I'm in a choke hold it's gettin harder to breath Havin terrifying dreams in my sleep shit is deep I try to fly away but someone's tuggin at my feet Feelin out of reach with myself in time of need Out of my zone fully losin control And no amount of dope I'm losin my sanity so I take a few hits Escape from reality cause the truth makes me sick Another gloomy day the sun's been out of touch Locked in my room all alone feelin' stuck The pressure's kickin' in and this Prozac ain't enough And I know in the future I'm a lose the ones I love It scares me to death but the clock won't stop tickin' So I keep livin' with my hopes and ambitions Enjoy my stay on Earth flash my pearly whites Cause when it hits your turn you gon' take an early flight In a little while your heart will see Just like a child smile for me Chillin' in the Village feelin' right In the mornin' yawnin cause the doja got me high My scrambled Cinemax and HBO is out of sight I'm infomercial zonin' do I flip or do I buy I'm messin' with this chick caught on my dick Thinkin' how she fell in love With a pimp, wantin' a hit wantin' none of the above Now some kid's up in the mix playa's never usin glove My Sidekick's out of service cause my anytime is up Eyes is closed cause I'm hopin' when I open 'em Time won't go back to 1999 when my mind was wrong Educated with the answer to open doors hold the phone pause You's a fool wanna make it in the swimmin pool blew his cool My reflections need a miracle life is full Of everything I never wanted Dive in thank the Lord I can't swim Smile smile smile for me Why don'tcha smile you can be free In a little while your heart will see Just like a child smile for me
