HOOK:

When life gets hard

We’re all strangers in the dark, oh

We won’t go far

Wishing on a shooting star no

Oh na na, na na

Oh na na, na

Oh na na, na na

Oh na na, na

VERSE 1:

Just a middle class kid from the burbs

Grew up, found A Tribe Called Quest fell in love with what he heard

Didn’t know how to flow but had a gift with the words

Through these passionate raps, move the world with a verse

We’re divided by the pigment it’s just a figment

Of our invention, we bleed the same crimson

You don’t gotta look far to bear witness

We’ve been ill from the fall, the same sickness

Everybody’s got a story but we walk by

We’re all strangers in the dark, past midnight

So I’m convicted when I’m dreamin’ ‘bout tour dates

Today’s somebody’s best day or worst day

I use the rhythm and rhyme to reach the masses

Put my pen to pad with purpose when I’m rappin’

My goal’s way deeper than clever lines or captions

Make you hit pause, turn compassion to action

HOOK:

When life gets hard

We’re all strangers in the dark, oh

We won’t go far

Wishing on a shooting star no

Oh na na, na na

Oh na na, na

Oh na na, na na

Oh na na, na

Bon Cantina:

Catch me if you can, man

They don't understand me

Don't understand

They can never reprehend me yeah

Match to match, I strike off the casket

Fuego flames dependin' on who's askin'

I struck gold the moment I read a passage

I'm too bold, even when I'm not flashy

Y'all too slow, y'all should try fastin'

I need more real ones, no actin'

The only real ones, stand as the Mohicans

The last up is the first one that's speakin'

And if I fall, I'm gon' fall in to His greatness

Lord my God, this one's for the lost and faithless

HOOK:

When life gets hard

We’re all strangers in the dark, oh

We won’t go far

Wishing on a shooting star no

Oh na na, na na

Oh na na, na

Oh na na, na na

Oh na na, na

VERSE 3:

Born in to nakedness, we’re afraid of it

Human and hurting it’s like we’re ashamed of it

Wake up to craziness, face to face with it

How did we get here? surprise we created it

Everybody’s got people that they hold dear

Funny how that’s all that matters when the end’s near

If you look close, we share the same fears

Got a couple grains of sand that we’re all here

We’d rather be enemies than show a shred of empathy

Distracted by the gram, and drunken off the jealousy

Me I’m tryna lead, make a difference with a melody

I wonder what’s in common? a mindset more heavenly

I might not know all the pain that you go through

Hope when life gets hard you got someone to hold you

We’re strangers in the dark, and that’s something I hold true

Put down my Ultraboost, take a walk in your shoes

OUTRO:

Everybody’s got a story, do you see it?

Believe it?

As we all grow O-L-D

Here’s a question for you and me

From dust to dust when my story’s told

As the tulips bloom and my body’s cold

The question is when it’s time to go

Will you be proud of yours when the credits roll?
