Soul Ties
Hey what’s up?
How you doing man?
Will you sit down for a minute?
I just got to talk to you about something, alright?
How can I put this?
I guess there’s no way really around it.
You know I would never dismiss our friendship, or the ties that bound it,
But, you’re really messing up.
Believe me I know that feeling of being stuck.
But, once you were too high above, and had too strong of love .. .for life.
So tell me, what sort of strife would make you give back your sight?
Now you’re blind to the facts of what you’re doing, man it’s not even right!!
Yeah, we’re tight!
You know that I’m down for you!
I’d give anything I could give and do anything I could do, to make sure that you push through!
But, there’s something up with you!
Alright, I’m not going to preach to you, OK?
But, God give me some way to reach you today.
I speak to you only as your ace, knowing none could take my place,
The way none could take yours in this lifetime or any other.
Come up with the tight rhymes organized by the same soul designs
Our minds inlined with the same kind of urb, like veins in a sister and a brother.
Yeah, you will suffer.
But, you’ve got to discover some things on your own.
I’ll be walking right beside you the whole time.
You can bet these lyrics, on your soul!!!!(soul ties)
Chorus: even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, you know I’m there!
No, don’t go!
Just sit down man . .I’m not done.
I know life has nothing to offer at times,
And others are hazed like a dream.
Nobody can answer your whats and your whys,
And death is such a mysterious means.
Nobody feels what you feel, cause you alone carry the entire world.
But to keep it all real homie, you’re just one boy, like I’m just one girl.
And what good are you to this dying nation, anyway?
When you let the government’s most intoxic solutions, take away
All your inspirations, to give your sorely needed resolutions.
Tell me why such a strong spirit, has kneeled down and raised his flag?
With your proud voice, DAMMIT, let me hear it!!
Why did you only put your heart and your soul in the body bag?
You walk on your bones a statistical clone and you act like you don’t even know!!
I get so stressed!
My heart is always at a test, but I refuse to give up my soul!
They’re not strong enough to take your best!!
So why did you just let it go?
You got to let me know!
From one homie to another!
From one sister to her dying soul brother!
Chorus: even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, you know I’m there!
Just sit down.
I have one more thing to say and then you can go, OK?
When life’s promises fail, my words will persist.
Whether you choice to live life on or off the rail, my loyalty will exist.
I know this is rough right now.
Everything right seems so wrong.
But, as faded as you may feel, somehow, I watch you stand so strong.
I know you don’t know the impact you have on a female who sees this world as gone.
And, I know you don’t know the light that you’ve shared.
In this darkness, you are my only dawn.
Others may view this as romance, but they just don’t understand,
That, that level of love, it never did have the chance,
To reach the depths our friendship has.
I’m down for you, that’s all it is.
If true friendship isn’t a crime.
So let the light inside you have a chance to live.
Don’t let this weight hold you behind.
The mark in time that you call life, will have an effect like no other.
Now handle that strife, and please take the insight,
From one sister to her shining, soul brother.
Chorus: even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, I know you feel me.
Even though you can’t see me, you know I’m there!
. . . .right beside you the whole way. . .
When you fall, I’ll pick you up.
When you stumble, I’ll carry you.
Even when you don’t want me there, I’ll be there.
I won’t give up on you, so don’t give up on yourself!!!
