statik selektah - balance beam lyrics

[intro]
(statik selektah)
yeah, what up statik?
let me talk my sh+t a little bit
uh

[verse 1]
my granny always told me “let it go and keep goin’ off”
you know i don’t mean no harm [?] you know my heart
she said you give these hoes an inch, they swear that you owe a yard
that means she wants the house too, look baby that’s null and void
my momma’s [?] tease me, said that i wasn’t your’s
but now i got the juice and i get off like [?]
i never was a simpson, they train ’em to know our flaws
that’s why these crackers [?] ’cause you ain’t know the law
i’m living in a weird time where n+ggas gossip
preachers are dirty money, that simply mean twisted prophets, a quick synopsis
reporting live from the projects, they don’t want us to prosper
you n+ggas think you can’t be touched [?] us
my father [?] got this freak right beside him
my momma was the g but i got game from my grandma
yeah all these n+ggas is washed up and i’m sure about it
sh+t be hitting too easy without the forty dollars
[?]

[chorus]
hold on to your family, hold on to your dreams
you must keep your feet on this balance beam
[verse 2: cj fly]
(fly!)
i’m tightroping on these lines, can’t knock me off balance
they all actors, i’m the same on and off camera
been kicking flows for so long my foot got a large callus
don’t need a [?] smoking on a [?]
felt free at last when i flew across the atlas
can’t touch me and can never rub me wrong, i’m like a cactus
you see the [?], you hear the h+rns
i done seen statik scratch voices like he was ho+rs+
when there’s disc jockeys on a track, you gon’ need a horse
[?] or it’ll be a horror
anything less would be a nightmare
i got tunnel vision and spectrum through the prism, i saw the light clear
they changed the rules to make us lose so i can’t fight fair
thought that i could fly when i got my first pair of nikes
i been running sh+t so long my hands [?]
[?] pay the price to be on my tier
(fly!)

[chorus]
hold on to your family, hold on to your dreams
you must keep your feet on this balance beam

[bridge]
what’s life without challenge?
you gotta find your balance
you must stay prepared for when you finally get your chance
’cause you can have all the talent
and not know how to manage
you must maintain a balance if you wanna be the man
[verse 3]
baby moms, you know she’s stuck in her ways
haven’t seen my baby girl in some days, what
it’s f+cked up but i live by one rule
in the middle of little italy screaming “[?],” listen
did you get the message, misconceptions disconnected
quit the stressing, [?] deflection, sh+t’s depressing
i came in the game trying to be myself
they chasing validation but they really seeking help, word
statik told me to turn them losses into lessons
so i quit smoking, started counting my blessings
and everyday it’s a challenging task
we perform, it’s the balancing act, come on

[chorus]
hold on to your family, hold on to your dreams
you must keep your feet on this balance beam
