Lyrics for Identical Deaths
I was proven effective by clinical tests For livin' many lives, dyin' identical deaths I thought, "Why, how could this have ever been if I'm blessed?" Then I had a talk with God that was interview-esque He said, "Riq, as near as the west and far as the east There's a warrant for your arrest by the Karma police" The dharma was deep, I thought it was too dark to defeat But made it here to tell the story by the chalk of my teeth I'm a survivor, a thriver, a husband, and a father I rise with every morning and star in another saga Empire, mosque, fear of God or Balenciaga Viva to either La R茅sistance or La Raza I met the monster on a rooftop of the plaza The teleprompter said there's still an Oscar to conquer My witch doctor asked me what's blockin' my chakra I told him it was probably caffeine, chronic and vodka I need a word, but a sponsor that won't be heard at a concert I cried so many crocodile tears, my eyes hurt As I approached the altar, another convert If you could read my mind, you heed the signs first Anger, keep out, danger Keep out, danger
