Man I see days chasing days
Everything stays the same
No more night & day
Everything is gray papier-mach é
Same song on the radio
By the same ole artist
Same a*****e on CNN giving
The same “ no comments ”
The same he-say-she-say shit
Grab any given weekday
And just put it on replay
' Ring-Ring ' Rise and shine
Time to lye on the couch
And watch TV till your eyes go blind
Watch the guy in the Gucci suit
Talk about ' trying times '
And the guy that sold you the gun
Turn around fighting crime
Days chasing days
People make mistakes
And don ' t think solution
They look for somewhere to place the blame
It ' s Just Days Chasing Days
Everything stays the same
Enemy ' s names will change
But their deeds remain in place
What are these arranged mistakes
But a link in the chains of fate
With the singular basic aim
To deplete us of age and strength
You can flee or embrace this replay
Of the Deja scene in The Matrix
But keeping beneath the blankets
Won ' t stave off seeing the day shift
So instead of being evasive
I portray ' brave ' and I face it
As I watch in amazement
As these paid pricks do this lame shit
And then trade shifts on the same staged hit
' bout fame & dollars
Niggas ain ' t biting no more
They ' re just claiming they ' re paying homage
I ' m saying God must be the illest producer
He fills us with youth
But trims us out before we can hear
Where the sample loops up
Sometimes it makes me wanna say Oh Lord )
Sometimes it makes me wanna shout Oh Lord )
Sometimes it makes me wanna scream Oh Lord )
I ' m sick and tired of these days chasing days Oh Lord )
Yo Chords man
I really hope these days ' ll catch up again
Till then I ' ll gnash up the back of my pen
Cause it acts as my last defense
Of my head against these sad and tragic events
That happen when history ' s repeating itself
Eating itself for the lack of an end
And I ' m tackling trends
It ' s all misleading
Just gimme 2 pair of my
Adidas and we ' ll call it even
See I ' m not a mad rapper
I ' m just frustrated
To see ya profiting with
Something you ripped off
And barely bothered to update it
So f**k waiting another 10 years
Till these twerps say
That what I was doing a decade ago
Is the reason they rhyme in the first place
Hah So in a worst-case scenario
I work with a smirked face
And pervert breaks and assertively rape your stereo
I see days chasing days
Everything stays the same
I ' ve seen Jesus become a patron
Saint of a paper chase
I ' ve seen wars justified
By one verse of “ Amazing Grace ”
Been face to face with the Devil
In the most sacred places
Seen Utopia for what it is
A Pipe dream
Seen murderous mind schemes
Turning the world to a crime scene
Learn that whether winter
Spring summer or fall
Empires will plummet and fall
To the ground and crumble apart
So is it me or these venetian blinds
That keep my mind
Lagging like a week behind
Cause all this darkness
Is treating me like razor blades
And there ' s no light
All I see are days chasing days
Sometimes it makes me wanna say Oh Lord )
Sometimes it makes me wanna shout Oh Lord )
Sometimes it makes me wanna scream Oh Lord )
I ' m sick and tired of these days chasing days Oh Lord )
