All I Know

All I know is the life i live with no fucks to give
Society defined for me what the ruckus is
[Overlapping]
All I knows the life I lead and the sights I see
All the sounds that surround and then enlighten me

Hook x 2
I swear its all, it's all, it's all
the life I'll ever know
This life is All I Know

Verse 1:
All I know is the life i live with no fucks to give
Society defined for me what the ruckus is
The lust for sins, puppet grins, that's where justice ends,
So I distrust em, let's rush em, and disrupt the trends
I must be dead, stressing on a thankless profession
What can be said, too anxious, the great depression
My life a blend, a mesh of anger, rage, aggression
Time to defend, my message fight away suppression
I aint the one for testing, yes I'm truly a basket case
All I do's procrastinate, fuck the world when I masturbate
Smashin fate in its face, like mothafuckin Cassius Clay
I'm the master of disaster, manufacturing this hate
Cause I'm based on reality, i face my mortality
Your savor a fallacy, so save your morality
All I knows actuality, the life I have before me
The narrator of my fate, I am the writer of my story

Hook

Verse 2:
All I knows the life I lead and the sights I see
All the sounds that surround and then enlighten me
I feel the crisis the fight for the right to be free
I sit here self absorbed. Judging self righteously
On the mic I bleed, look to pain for inspiration
the trials and tribulations, defying the limitations
I'm breaking outside the basement, I'm raisin the expectation
I'm takin my place in history gaining the admiration
The realization, I can change the way it is
I could pave the way for kids, I could save the day and live
but I stay this way and binge, like a razor blade to skin
I must be sadomasochist, the way I'm suffering for sins
Jesus Christ, speak on mics, with defiance and virtue
Hip hop isn't dead, but the whole vibe is commercial
Fuck it, rhyme till I'm purple, and people praise my pride
Immortalize in my mind, by the ways I survive

Hook

Verse 3:
All I know the life I have, so I like to have it
Resiliency, tho they believe my psyche savage
The american dreams, a scheme a device to ravage
And make us see sacrifice as a right of passage
we survive the damage, so we deserve the credit
and I aint talking Am Ex, I'm talking first amendment
Speaking knowledge, dollars earn are too esoteric
So I plot my revolution but hide the murder weapon
Disturbing pleasures, I never knew another notion
Natural born sinner, getting booze and then i'm boastin
Natural born winner, never lose and never broken
In spite of society, most clever words I've ever spoken
Letting true mothafuckah know, this is my realest shit
Feeling guilty, I don't know enough to deal with this
Still I show fearlessness, on the mic when I set it straight
fighting to defend my ways, fighting til the end of days,
All I know is this, the life of the legend Dave
