e-lux - pure ecstacy lyrics
chorus
i made a promise
that i never let the streets
get the best of me
sh-lls drop
n-gg-s get buried
keep on testing me
you only get one to live
where’s the rest of me
the only thing we guaranteed
is death
it’s pure ecstasy
verse 1
as a youth
growing up in the ghetto
up in projects
lots of sacrifices
were made
by myself
to avoid problems
i was
always in to music
had to go upstairs early
before the lights outside
went out
i had to be up in the house
some of my friends
they sold drugs
but i couldn’t
my mother went to church
every sunday
and my father
made sure i wouldn’t
follow my friends
he was always
on my case
up in my face
i couldn’t get away with much
i knew my place
so with that
i made a promise
that the streets
wouldn’t get
the best of me
and the streets
was forever testing me
i reached deep inside myself
and started f-cking with best of me
n-gg-s laughed
what i got job
they start respecting me
real quick!
i started stacking up my chips
writing rhymes
i started free styling
and getting chicks
of course
n-gg-s got jealous
they was all up on the d-ck
they swore they -ss
was much better
but my sh-t was just to clever
iwrite rhymes forever
i shut em down !
chorus
i made a promise
that i never let the streets get the best of me
sh-lls drop
n-gg-s get buried
keep on testing me
you only get one life
to live
where’s the rest of me
the only thing we guaranteed
is death
it’s pure ecstasy
verse 2
deep down
i always knew
that id be making hits
i think it had something
to do
wit the way
my momma made them grits
the way they stuck to me!
n-gg-s outside
smoking that huckabee
reluctantly
out of force of habit
they don’t f-ck wit me
luckily
my life has always
been some what
amazing
the streets love drama
but this ain’t broadway
or a play
it’s been more like a tragedy
if i could defy gravity
i would get up off this earth
and fly away
somewhere rapidly
i’m too aggressive
i push forward
never look back
always myself
i’m so impressive
take care of my health
i’m a live long time
at least
that’s what the psychic told me
said i never would have to worry about wealth
my family made a man of me
i will never lose
my sanity
i keep positive thoughts
flowing through the brain
my veins
is pumping wit blood
these so called thugs
out the streets they need hugs
the need love
they grew up wit
no father
they all bugged
its crazy!
chorus (repeat)
verse 3
now here’s the recipe
all you need is
salt , pepper
and sesame
a ink pen
college ruled paper
get it done
professionally
map out your strategy
what step one
what’s step two
put it motion
and let it flow
like a raft do
the world is filled with
so many people
that’s conniving
and when i’m driving
i try and hit em
no i’m lying
there’s no denying
ultimately
you are you are
your own fate
decisions you make
will shape
and create
ya fate
at my cousin wake i cried
he was too young
to die
reminded me of my life
i feel grateful
to be alive
so with that
i try
to give my best
everyday
cuz
life ain’t for play
cuz it could be my last day to say
i appreciate
everyday
i could take two steps
some people ain’t legs
some people got burnt
flesh
i’m hot to death!
chorus
i made a promise
that i never let the streets
get the best of me
sh-lls drop
n-gg-s get buried
keep on testing me
you only get one to live
where’s the rest of me
the only thing we guaranteed
is death
it’s pure ecstasy
