[Intro: Goapele]

These are the daze my friend

We're so far from the end

But we can't wait forever and a day

Forever and a day

[Verse 1: Zumbi (Zion I)]

One for your city

Two if you're prissy

Three for the raw real homies rollin' wit' me

Four's like the voice in my head get me dizzy

Five, get it so live, the cops come and get me

Six for the politricks

Seven, call the Reverend

Eight, DNA certain way you a felon

Nine, feeling fine even when the sun shady

Ten, that's a dime

Goapele do it crazy

[Verse 2: Goapele]

If you miss me when I'm gone

Just know I'm riding on a sky plane

You never know, I could be wrong

(You never know, I could be wrong)

Sometimes I'm weak but I'll push on (On, on, on)

[Pre-Chorus: Goapele]

Push on (Push on)

Be strong (Be strong)

Don't wait (Don't wait)

Lean on (Lean on)

Sometimes (Sometimes)

Pray on

Hold on

Because

[Chorus: Goapele]

These are the daze you gotta go for broke

I'm taking all my chances

And if you're scared of transit

Run for cover, light is fading (Oh, oh)

It's getting dark, the sun is fading

[Bridge: Goapele]

So they told me to

Live today like I'm gonna live forever

Tomorrow paves the way for the rest of your life

Even if we lose some along the way

It's not worth the hate

No time to hate

[Verse 3: Casual]

Black prophet

Still grab my collar, pop it

Do anything for a twenty-dollar profit

They push into yo' kitchen 'til yo' mama holler 'stop it'

If it ain't first class, then I'ma try the cockpit

Had some ups and downs, been fucked around

It's nothing, 'cause we ain't sufferin' now

For life we lusted, in God we trust

But now don't discuss it, we going for busted

[Pre-Chorus: Goapele]

Hold tight (Hold tight)

It's not (It's not)

Too late (Too late)

Take it (Take it)

Right now (Right now)

It's in (It's in)

Your hands

Because (Because)

[Chorus: Goapele]

These are the daze you gotta go for broke

I'm taking all my chances

And if you're scared of transit

Run for cover, light is fading (Oh, oh)

It's getting dark, the sun is fading

These are the daze you gotta go for broke (Go for broke)

I'm taking all my chances

And if you're scared of transit

Run for cover, light is fading (Oh, oh)

It's getting dark, the sun is fading
