[Hook] x2 I'll be doin' alright. I'll be doin' ok And as long as I can live to see another day I'll be doin alright. I'll be doin ok
[SOS] Back in the sixteenth century ... way way back in the day Nostradamus predicted the end of the world would be on May 5th... 1999 and I don't know how But as I'm writing this that's only one day from right now What the fuck! I pull up to Shell in my truck Look up, "nah... Earth ain't about to erupt" Open my door, get up, slam it shut, "Marv, what up Let me get a bag of ice and a stack of plastic cups" For a minute we chat 'bout life and all o that Then we dap. "Check you out tomorrow night, I'll be back" Grab a bidi and light it, turn the key and start driving Back off into the night and then I start to get frightened Thinking "Damn! My whole life I was just a dreamer I never got to put on a show in a packed arena I wanted to go on Rap City and act witty But all I ever did was put up with hoes who act shitty What a wack pity! Was I choosin a road That didn't get me there in time and now we losin our globe? Hold up I'm losin control. Think realistically on it What could fuck up a planet in one day without warning? And even if the world does end and I can be mad at guys Cause life coulda been much worse. At least I'm satisfied At least my dad's alive married to my mother I have a sister and friends that I could call my brothers At least I have life. Some people, their life was stolen Set up for a crime and behind bars is where they hold em We got kids killin kids cause Earth is cold Women using abortions as a form of birth control It hurts the soul and leaves a scar on your conscience But it's a blessing that I made it through this nonsense So even if this will be my last night At least when it's over I'll be doin alright...
[DEACON THE VILLAIN] Back in the 16th century, way way back in the day Nostradamous predicted the world would be on may 5th, 99, three years later and change The World Trades frame got struck by planes Looking like God unleashed his fury and rained flames Exchanged pain for how America came to fame Cluthing my brain, my sense of security changed Usually confidence was pure in me, now fear in my veins Said "any of this shit could brang nuclear weapons ...any of this shit could end at any second" If the Commander in Chief couldn't insure our protection That's no more additions to my memory's collection Missing me and my girls matrimonial connection No child and videotapin' her first steppings Or growing old and teaching grandchildren lifes lessons But thankfully I got saved during them church sessions So I thank God for earth's blessings... health Not alot of wealth, but alot of peace within my self Not a whole lot of forgotten pieces upon the shelf Disclipline from loving parents, though they raised me By the belt When I was young, I was wild (life) took it for granted (nights) living outlandish (christ) hope he could stand it Now I do right.. wherever I can manage The devil was eating me alive but I climbed out of that sandwich Now possibly on the verge of having everything vanish Feeling as if I didn't do anything as I planned it Like I was trying to live my life right, but somebody panned it But I still had love, when down helping hands lifted Me up, outta the mud, outta the muck And outta the dark and attitude when I didn't give a fuck From them days in the park, alone, drinking gin by the cup Through an exitless maze, wandering and constantly stuck The blessings were always there, I just chose to ignore them Shit started getting sweeter when I learned to explore them Wasn't selfish with them, trying to stretch and contort them And didn't let the world get to them first and distort them So as I.. kick back and ponder on armeggedon And I... spit raps about where my life could've been headin' I.. admit that.. I do have a wonderful life So if this night was my last, i'll be doin' alright
