soulchef - when i close my eyes lyrics

[hook]
when i close my eyes
when i close my eyes
and everything’s alright
and i drift away (drift away)
drift away, drift away

when i close my eyes
when i close my eyes
and everything’s alright
and i drift away (drift away)
drift away, drift away

[verse 1]
still i rise, still i rise
they try to clip my wings, but still i fly
they try to bring me down and kill my high
they took away my crown, trying to steal my pride
but it just me stronger
and even though them days got longer
i learned some vital lessons when i made those wrong turns
i’m grateful for the painful things that forced me to grow
because now i know to head straight at that fork in the road
and i’m a fortunate soul, because i learned from the best
they told me just work on your music, and you’ll earn your respect
but the product i promoted, watch it turn to a cheque
and every time you rock the mic you reach your personal best
but sometimes, this life is too much for me
i should be living in an effing life of luxury
because the limit is the sky, but i struggle to survive
so when it gets too hard, i just close my eyes

[hook]

[verse 2]
yo, i rise with the sun in the early morning
facing this world we born in
my mind’s swirling, storming, working until the words be forming
people tell me that the sky is the limit
but i’m living for right now, because i could die any minute
this life is turning the page, earning a wage
learning to stay firm in your ways, burning with rage
learning only for the lessons, not concerned with the grades
and roaming lonely through this californian urban decay
they always told me play in your work, work your play
be a man, stay strong when it hurts to stand
if you love something and it’s really worth a d-mn
then you should always feel the p-ssion like you first began
so here i am, my eyes on what’s next
imma fight until the death
the pride of the west inside of my chest
i manoeuvre through the cries and the sweat
the lies and regrets
and when it gets too hard, i close my eyes and reflect

[hook]

[outro]
sometimes i want to drift away
no more living in the past, got to live today
sometimes i want to drift away
but i got so much to do, so many things to say

sometimes i want to drift away
no more living in the past, got to live today
sometimes i want to drift away
but i got so much to do, so many things to say
