Derrik Ment@l - Grave Expectations (feat. Ickybo) Lyrics

We're bein' buried alive, before our very own eyes
It's no surprise, been overdue a long time
We done lost our mind, it can be a fine line
When you're walkin' the path that you're walkin'
Fallin' back behind, tryin' to find, whatever you can
Even if it takes forever man, that was never the plan
Stop the watch, kill the clock, bust through rock
Don't let the pain, put the brain into shock
'Cause it never mattered more than it does right now
Ignite a fight inside, or just fall out, don't stall out
Not just yet, rest is for the dead, don't let them forget
Messed up head, upset, no regrets, ready, get set
Don't bet, who's next, 'cause we're livin' our own way
Not how you say, no truth, no faith, f*ck what you think...
Walk away, kill all the negative talk today
Feel all the elements of thought ablaze
Or get caught in a maze, get lost in space
Or in an awesome phrase, blossom, or stay the same
Like you're stale, you can overcome it all, or you could fail
Thank god every time you inhale, peace to everybody
Hope you're doin' well, sometimes it seems like you're in hell
But you got to keep pushin' 'til you do excel, the haters
And the phonies, we are to expel, have you just like Whitney Houston
Waiting to exhale, life is short, so don't ever hold back
Never see a sell out, just to get a gold plaque
Attack every track, crack every back
Live life to the fullest, 'til the lights fade black...

Walk away, what's keepin' you, concentrate
On better things, wash away, whatever
Won't change a thing, grave expectations
Grave expectations, grave expectations, grave expectations...

One way, or another, we all expire, hope we don't suffer
Don't waste this time just bein' stubborn
Can't just reverse, need to burn rubber
Got to live your life, at your own speed
But that don't mean, that you got to be a dope fiend
Obscene, is it really if you don't see
Don't make this a problem, and it won't be
Don't blink, don't think, that you know me
Just because such misery is lonely
You always want what you don't need
Like smelling a rose, with a nose bleed
I chose to oppose all the nonsense
Didn't know where to go, with the contents
Put my soul in the hole, in the process
And it is what it is, no loses...
Before you know it, your time is up
Either use it, or you blow it, no kind of grudge
That you hold, can ever help you, quit tryin' to judge
Everybody, and just look at your self, get out there
Or just be a book on the shelf, knowledge of self
Is the key to your bliss, and hell breezes
Will they ever stop us, like only when hell freezes
Enjoy every day, it could be your last
Life is a gift, quit sittin' on your ass...
Keep swingin' a pick axe, stompin' a shovel
I'd rather be buried, than wearing a muzzle
I wonder if we can dig our self up out of the rubble
I hope that someone love us, when we run into trouble
Give me a headstone, not a rest home
Better believe a legacy to pass on
Have you ever seen what I mean, then get grown
Don't just get stoned, learn to let go...

Walk away, what's keepin' you, concentrate
On better things, wash away, whatever
Won't change a thing, grave expectations
Grave expectations, grave expectations
Grave expectations, walk away
What's keepin' you, concentrate, on better things
Wash away, whatever, won't change a thing
Grave expectations, grave expectations
Grave expectations, grave expectations...
