Where Do We Go

Yeah
When the sun rise
We figure that we got mo' time
But in due time we realize
We got no time
Wonder where do we go when we leave the sky
I wonder, where do we go when we leave the sky
At night time
You close ya eyes and see the Most High
Leave the physical behind
And you go for a ride
Wonder where do we go when we leave the sky
I'm asking, where do we go when we leave the sky?
Aye yo
I asked a question
Can any body tell me that?
Where we goin', where we headed
Is we coming back?
I can't decide if I'm curious or furious
Is it life after life?
Or is some of us delirious?
Nah, this one is serious
We all gotta go
Can't run, can't hide
It's something we all know
But if it's more after this
Then why are we afraid?
Every breath that we take
Brings us closer to the grave
That's as real as it can get
That's facts, it's legit
You ever look into the sky
And wonder, is this it?
Just to work 40 hours
'Til you get old and sick
Or maybe that's to slow
You live fast and need it quick
So you sittin' in a spot
With a block makin' chips
Can't see past the night
Tryna make ends click
The only future for you
Is hittin' the next lick
It's Novocain in our veins
When we in Death's grip
When the sun rise
We figure that we got mo' time
But in due time we realize
We got no time
Wonder where do we go when we leave the sky
I wonder, where do we go when we leave the sky
At night time
You close ya eyes and see the Most High
Leave the physical behind
And you go for a ride
Wonder where do we go when we leave the sky
I'm asking, where do we go when we leave the sky?
(Listen)
Often I sit and try to reason
Figure out the meaning
Should I question where we go
Or should I just believe it?
I try to ignore it
But its hard to forget
'Cause so many go before us
Man, it's hard to accept
Emotions make it feel
Like a dart in your chest
Cold Brown, No Ice
Drinking dark, smokin' cess
Ease ya' mind, numb the pain
But can't put away the stress
It's so much pilin' on
I can't get it off my chest
It just bounce around my head
Like a ricochet
I try to make it go away
But it just stick and stay
So I live wit it
Carry it from day-to-day
But at night, it keeps me up
And I just want a break
But really, I know my number comin'
So I'm likely buggin' over nothin'
But that pain was real
When I lost my Cousin
The shock was hittin'
Like some steel drummin'
And I cried for a day
And then I started feel numbin'
When the sun rise
We figure that we got mo' time
But in due time we realize
We got no time
Wonder where do we go when we leave the sky
I wonder, where do we go when we leave the sky
At night time
You close ya eyes and see the Most High
Leave the physical behind
And you go for a ride
Wonder where do we go when we leave the sky
I'm asking, where do we go when we leave the sky?
(The truth, no one will panic
Because there is nothing to fear)
(Do you know the reason, brother
Please let me know
Because I cant wait no more
And my time
my time is almost gone)

(Puts a different perspective on what sound actually is)
Yeah
Iz ILL
Yeah yeah
(Listen to what I'm saying here)
Uh, yeah
That's not a satellite in the sky
That's just me
That's not a shootin' star flying by
That's just me
That's not a airplane gliding by
That's just me
That's not a UFO in front ya eyes
That's just me
Mind lost
Mind lost
Mind lost
In 2020, I'm just going through the motions
With the pain, Im coping
Tryna climb the silver rope
To the soul that's floatin'
I've been detached for too long
Time to fix what's broken
Hear the growth in the rhymes
From the lyrics that's spoken
For 35 years I've been on this rock
And don't nobody know
When the ball gone drop
We spinnin' through space
Don't know where we'll stop
And y'all to busy worried 'bout a Doomsday clock
That's not a satellite in the sky
That's just me
That's not a shootin' star flying by
That's just me
That's not a airplane gliding by
That's just me
That's not a UFO in front ya eyes
That's just me
Mind lost
(This is an ancient meditation)
Mind lost
Mind lost
(I am the energy, the consciousness, the being)
