Lyssa True Poet - Look 4 Me Lyrics

Lost child never had it easy
Take a glance at my present or past
Probably wouldn't believe me
Rollin' weed with your role model
Never walked your path 'cause only hoes follow
They say hoes swallow
That's the norm now
I think these hoes just hollow
Entertainment like Apollo
Pockets need to raise up no Petey Pablo
Fuck yesterday today fuck tomorrow
Sometimes my only goal is to not drown in my sorrow
Or her sorrow or their sorrow
I ain't feeling happy so a smile is what I borrow
They say it's contagious
Well so is these rages
Know some fathers barely know
What their daughters age and name is
Never said this would be painless
Life sting like a bee
This life got more tears than we could cry
But more breath then we could breathe
Picture life in a pair of my shoes
Smokin' on that Marley writing to these blues
Guess I'll blend in with the sky they won't look for me on top
They won't look for me on top
Picture life in a pair of my shoes
Smokin' on that Marley writing to these blues
So I blend in with the sky love and cry for this hip-hop
I live and die for this hip-hop
Rubik's cube living life was never easy
From Washington state to Washington DC my people need me
When Jesus died on that cross did he trap me or free me
I deeply
Ponder on the road that I've traveled
I'm knotted up but unravel
Only on paper only when that Mary embrace her
I thought I told you life was greasy no handouts no favors
You wasn't with me through the minors
Come collect when I'm major hmm
I won't ask you how that turn out
Don't ask me how I'm getting my money
You ain't feed me when you knew me to be homeless and hungry
Searching for an answer why this life never loved me
While they was stressed behind iPhone's and gas money
I was taking more hits than a crash dummy
Trying to find my way spending holidays in that gray
Man I swear them walls don't change
It's up to me to make do
I guarantee you'll never find another like me
Connected and stay true
You won't find another like me
Connected and stay true
Picture life in a pair of my shoes
Smokin' on that Marley writing to these blues
Guess I'll blend in with the sky they won't look for me on top
They won't look for me on top
Picture life in a pair of my shoes
Smokin' on that Marley writing to these blues
So I blend in with the sky love and cry for this hip-hop
I live and die for this hip-hop
You teach your lungs not to cough when you hitting the haze
I teach my stomach not to growl 'cause I ain't ate for days
Ain't no metaphor its pure truth
Kind you rarely hear when they recording in the booth
These clowns straight goofs
That's why I stay aloof
Distant like our relatives
Humbled by my roots
You ain't never had no food to eat
Never had no place to stay
So how the fuck you judging me for trying to stay out the way
Shout out Dead Prez
I use to sit in my cell reflecting on their poetry
With dreams they would notice me
I rock with solid ones willing to grow with me
Options like the Jordan shoe collection willing to hoe for me
But that ain't what I'm after
An empty offer of beauty mixed with disaster
I blend in with the sky so the stars will find me faster
All I want in life is love loyalty and laughter
Love loyalty and laughter
Find me in the sky
Up high
Look for me
