Scarlet
On Monday I let my scar heal
On Tuesday I let my scar bleed
Won’t you say it’s real?
On Wednesday enhancing the pain
I let my scar heal by bleeding again
The silly blame me I’m guilty of anything
Prior to rapping I wasn’t drug trafficking
Looking at me like I’m Afro-American
However I just be rapping because I can
A simple reason for me to get in again
Fuck up the medium, bitch, gimme premium
Sorry if you think I don’t understand a thing
Living my life, homie, you know I mean?
Told me to drop a gun but shit wasn’t mine
Why the fuck aiming at me? There’s a dozen guys
Stupid decision must cost you somebody’s life
Stop all the dreaming, bitch, nine to five!
Ride or die (die-die-die), ride or die
Whether you fail or you fly, save your inside
Believe in coincidence, well, this a problem
Whatever keeps you alive – scarlet
Whatever keeps you alive (scarlet)
Whatever keeps you alive
Whatever keeps you alive (scarlet)
Whatever keeps you alive
Thursday and Friday kept going on
On Saturday finally left home
Sunday spent enhancing the pain
I let my scar bleed; I let my scar bleed again
My whole life scarlet
My whole life fucked up
My whole life garden
Them flowers rotten
It's nothing I'm worth what I got
Never ask God so I dot what I see - that's a lot
Right now feeling nuts remember last march
Mesmerized, bust-ed, tested and stuff
Rough beef with myself, dissing instead of
Cutting my head off or striving to raise up
Gazing through space like a crazy alien
Many of my friends don't know me anymore
And I come naked please take it right
Might I make it if I use my rifle as rhymes?
Or vice versa it doesn't make sense to me
Ready for whatever looming
Whatever keeps you alive (scarlet)
Whatever keeps you alive
Whatever keeps you alive (scarlet)
Whatever keeps you alive
Scarlet is the color of pain
Killers are dressed in black, but maniacs wear scarlet
The only one color to blame
For everything that you lack – is scarlet
However, if you breathe with you scarlet lungs
And see with your scarlet eyes – you’re still alive
