Nocturnal Rainbows

[Intro]

You think you're original? You ain't original

You were programmed to be you

You're a slave, and you don't even know it

The shit you think of, ain't even your thoughts

Let's step out the box for a minute!

[Verse 1]

How do we know if God exists? How do we know it's positive?

Are you the definition of an angel or the opposite?

If you lost your wallet and I found it, I would not commit to stealin' it

But if the tables turned, then you would pocket it

See, I been me for so long, but I still don't know who Hopsin is

How come I'm the one my teachers used to have a problem with?

I show my music to different labels, they ain't too fond of it

But in the underground I seem to get so many compliments

Say my name and it's like people get afraid and shook

But if you take a look, you'll see I'm nothin' like an angry crook

I'm learnin' hands-on, you busy with your face in books

I'm here to benefit the world, so Heaven's where we're safely put

I'm not a devil, not speakin' in tongues

I just wanna touch your heart, I try to reach it in songs

I'm from where a child's future's on the streets with the bums

Because it's hard to become somethin' so unique where I'm from

[Chorus]

When the sun's down

Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high

It may seem so that I can't see

But the darkness provides the light for me

I don't wanna be lonely

And the moon is my only homie

If there's a higher power, then show me

Instead of nocturnal rainbows

[Verse 2]

Obama's president, so? What's he represent?

Just because the nigga's half black don't mean he's Heaven-sent

You're clueless to evidence and all the minds he's messin' with

His charmin' smile hasn't got my ass up out this debt for shit

Frontin' like he's truly Jesus, and all you fools believe it

The change he's makin' isn't good, that's just how you conceived it

It's like we're all broker than ever, it's due to reasons

Dealin' with self-beneficial plans and the movement he's with

Illuminati, or whatever the fuck they go by

They're the reason weird shit happens and we don't know why

Why did Michael Jackson start his tour, then have to go die?

How did rap music go from really good to so dry?

Real artists get shelved and wack ones get famous

To leave masses brainless, a smart mind is dangerous

In their eyes; there probably ain't no real shit in your playlist

You're just a product of what the government has created

[Chorus]

When the sun's down

Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high

It may seem so that I can't see

But the darkness provides the light for me

I don't wanna be lonely

And the moon is my only homie

If there's a higher power then show me

Instead of nocturnal rainbows

[Verse 3]

Yo, we're all smart, and we know what's bad and good for us

But yet, when you got offered some marijuana, you took a puff

Your brain's a fuckin' powerhouse, but what, that wasn't good enough?

It's people like you who talk that "shoulda, coulda, woulda" stuff

You probably threw your life away ‘cause you would rather get high

With no license or car, so you bum rides to get by

Sayin', "I should've did this" or "I shouldn't have hung with this guy."

"I'm broke as fuck, my rent's high. Ah, I should've realized."

I ain't bein' cruel with these situations that I address

I more than likely could be someone you admire, yes

But it's because the blood, sweat and all the time that I invest

We play the same game, difference is you never try your best

You don't have a skill, you set yourself up for a higher mess

I work around the clock, you slack off for lots of time to rest

Keep bullshittin' till your life is gone

‘Cause livin's naturally hell, you have to work to put a smile on

[Chorus]

When the sun's down

Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high

It may seem so that I can't see

But the darkness provides the light for me

I don't wanna be lonely

And the moon is my only homie

If there's a higher power then show me

Instead of nocturnal rainbows

[Chorus]

When the sun's down

Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high

It may seem so that I can't see

But the darkness provides the light for me

I don't wanna be lonely

And the moon is my only homie

If there's a higher power then show me

Instead of nocturnal rainbows

[Outro]

Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high

Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high

Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high

Nocturnal rainbows soar in the air so high
