shad - what we all want lyrics

spoken:
i dont really know what i want, i dont really know what i need,
i dont know what other people need.
um, i feel confused a lot of the time,
not really knowing, you know, in what direction to go,
or what things to do or how to live my life properly.
life is interesting, its a bit of a search.

verse 1:
yo, what happens when the walls drop,
the lies and the disguises and the small talk,
to cover up the pain and the shame and the bald spots,
and runaway trains,
what happens when it all stops.
artists drop gems that ring false rocks,
we should’ve got those calls blocked like allstar.
we feedin’ our mind from the tree in eden,
and lately i been readin’ what paul taught, freedom.
that’s what we all want, yo, thats what we all want.

spoken:
people look for what they want in all sorts of different things.
um, and they often neglect the things that they need in life.
you know there are a couple of basic things that i think most of us want,
even if we’re not completely aware of the fact that we want those things.
and i dont know how to communicate that to people,
usually its just something that you learn in time.

verse 2:
i want to be on the level of skill thats gold medal,
but still i’m unsettled like clogs man,
those are some hard shoes to fill,
especially when the pressures on and the mic is off.
me and my wife just struggle to pay bills,
and keep our son occupied and,
make his stocking filled when the holidays arrive.
i try to be a good provider,
succesful on the spiritual side,
but made a mess when it came to my debt.
so lets take a lesson from it,
i stand on the summit, its suns that reflect,
the lesser things that i wanted in life.
i don’t want to be haunted by my decisions,
i admit balancing wants and needs comes with a price,
and i’m paying it twice, first with the card,
second with the interest, it ain’t that nice.
i been blessed so i think i know whats right,
what i really want is peace from god or insight, its what we all want, right?

spoken:
tts messed up because sometimes we want things that are completely opposite of what we need.
in fact a lot of the time in the world today you find people searching for and seeking out things that are terrible for them.

verse 3:
yo, its hard to be, man its hard to just be, man.
especially with this artistry, its hard to be black and,
not be a hard mc or r+b,
and thats cool if thats you,
but what if all you are is me man?
start the beat,
cause all my heart can see,
is dark and bleak
night sky painted,
on my mind.
so i spark the speech like stars to bleed,
light when its hard to see,
more than guitars and being down with a label that can market me.
i’ve scarred my knees praying hard for peace of mind and a heart thats free,
’cause yo, thats what we all want.
