holeman asthma – running away (from the lies) lyrics
don’t look back to what i’ve done before
i do regret that my heart was blind for so long
[verse 1: spqr]
lay my soul down on these tracks
but i don’t ever get paid back
so when you hear me rhyme well i just hope i make you think while you relax
see most rappers these days deceive you for the cash
they tell you that they live just like a thug but they ain’t that
i’ve never been in the spotlight or covered magazines
i probably never will because i won’t sell you a dream
not gonna rhyme about fast women or a lamborghin’
they say i’m chauvinist, no b-tch, don’t you see?
the spirit in my lyrics when you hear it is to merit
all the kids misguided by the radio they blare it
screaming at their parents while mtv what they stare at
and taking all the substances they heard won’t make them care at
all
school halls vacant on vacation
in the middle of november while the cop sirens wailing
arresting all the youth to lock em up inside the jail an
the real criminals the one’s who made them rude and blatant
the rappers that they playing while they smoking in the bas-m-nt
but street life isn’t idolized in real life on the pavement
that’s where people die because they couldn’t make a payment
where mothers cry at night because the fathers back to slanging
but when you play this song n0body listens what i’m saying
childish rhymes sell and consciousness gets shelved away in
america
and furthermore the kids are lost
cause they can’t be themselves is what religion has taught
so instead they find relief in rap and pills for them to pop
if you and i believe in god i doubt the one i worship is the same one you’ve got
the one i heard about forgives all people and that’s not
all because he made them all himself the whole lot
so did god make a mistake when he created you and i
that’s what they might tell you but i swear that it’s a lie
control is what they’re after cause there’s so much more to life
than pouring over holy books and judging wrong from right
they read the scripture but they only read the parts they like
think for yourself, break free and take flight
i ran away
was afraid to face the truth but times have changed
hope you feel the same way too
here i am, with you
[verse 2: spqr]
i’mma take a swing on the religious right wing
if there’s a god above me he gon back up what i’m sayin
until they stop hating yo i ain’t gon stop slaying
unlike the catholic fathers with the boys i ain’t playing
now you can quote the verses but you don’t know how to say em
cause hating what he making wasn’t part of the creation
run up on a rabbi with a whole load of sources
and tell him that respect for fellow man is more important
if he got a problem i’mma tell him where the court is
and pour on the attack with the gemara and mefarshim
fellow human beings won’t conform and so you force em
all for this sh-t ain’t why this boy gave up his foreskin
d-mn dude for real yo i’m trying to find mine
i lost it 18 years ago it’s god d-mn time
i’m jewish you can tell cause i ain’t giving my ten cents
without some guarantee that bible thumpers make amends
don’t look back to what i’ve done before
i do regret that my heart was blind for so long
here i am, with you
