Write To Dream

The devil gotta fill his quota
Shots rang from the heavens that one night at The Dakota
First they callin' out ya name, then you look over ya shoulder
Then you take ya last breath, the air is getting colder
You could be about peace, but when Satan send his soldiers
Peace never stood a chance, now that death is getting closer
It's sumthin' like Tony versus Alejandro Sosa
That's a bad analogy, hol' up I need to focus
I see the world like Lennon through his lenses
Imagine all the people comin' to their senses
They say the road to hell is always paved with good intentions
The path to the Lord has the narrowest dimensions
I'm tryna walk up on this tightrope
Killers on the corner and they got me in the night scope
With hate in their heart and a book that you might quote
Revelations like Michael call the Apostles

I see the world like Lennon through his lenses
Covered in our sins, workin' on repentance
At the pearly gates, prayin' for an entrance
Knowing good and damn well most of us will never get in
I see the world like Lennon through his lenses
Like Lennon through his lenses
I see the world like Lennon through his lenses
Like Lennon through his lenses

I think about death a 'lil more than oughta
I just touched 40 and life's getting shorter
The whole shit started on a 4-track recorder
Tryna get the world to hear every rhyme that I authored
But I got so much more to offer
Every time I give it up they pulled me back like the archer
I couldn't take it any longer
You'll never beat the odds tryna calculate the losses
And what's a life without purpose
You could hear the word of God and never make it to service
Be touched by his hands, never step inside the churches
Or tortured by the souls who could feel the fire burning
They say the devil is a lie
But how long will it take for the demons to subside
Waking up from the screams and a dream where you die
While ya killer holds a gun and Catcher in the Rye

I see the world like Lennon through his lenses
Covered in our sins, workin' on repentance
At the pearly gates, prayin' for an entrance
Knowing good and damn well most of us will never get in
I see the world like Lennon through his lenses
Like Lennon through his lenses
I see the world like Lennon through his lenses
Like Lennon through his lenses
