Show Me The Way (feat. Aloe Blacc)

The harder the work well the longer the day
 Easy may come but it sure don't stay
 Tryin' to cope, boy I hope and I pray
 Show me the way
 The harder the work well the longer the day
 Easy may come but it sure don't stay
 Tryin' to cope, boy, I hope and I pray
 Somebody show me the way
 Somebody show me the way
 I say hello to my people, hello to the day
 I watch the world on wheels
 Hit the yellow and grey
 The ones don't work are the ones who don't eat
 And once again I'm from that city where that sun don't sleep
 It's time to get live because the terms is breeched
 Ride the wave like the world is a beach
 Learn more I teach
 I was raised by NWA and Stacey
 Ay, all day, same story different briefcase
 I'm nonchalant to others pedaling weight
 I got a purpose to serving up and settle my state
 Been through it, all of it, great
 Put the ruler to the movement, all of it's straight
 Big fish even calling 'em bait
 One love, one dish, see 'em all on my plate
 I take the lady on a vacay, she call it a date
 Now she calling in sick, now she calling in late
 The harder the work well the longer the day
 Easy may come but it sure don't stay
 Tryin' to cope, boy, I hope and I pray
 Somebody show me the way
 Somebody show me the way
 I've been through some pitfalls that knocked me down
 Made it through close calls and lost some ground
 It's a hell of a price I pay
 Somebody show me the way
 Somebody show me the way
 The moon tagged the sun in
 Love to be alive, feet hit the ground running
 Butterflies in my stomach
 Like the matrix tryin' to get it
 Tryin' to learn a lot from it
 On a planet in regression in a loft at the summit
 Air is much clearer, catch me on the high road
 Some fight to live, others settle for survival
 It's your world, you can write the line you live your life on
 It's heavy but you're strong just hold on until that light dawns
 It's started now, pardon me we're partying
 Escalating, redefining the state of the art again
 Celebrated, elevators open up to secret floors
 Different rules and secret laws, from the roof you'll see the stars
 Only fear boredom in a world of raw materials
 Excite by potential, inspired by adventure
 Calculated circles the circumference and the radius
 The only guest to float without a float through the parade is us
 It's routine, by the beach I rise
 First up, I hit the weed then I bleach my eyes
 Then it's to the drum machine to speak my mind
 Tracks like fitted hats, pick a beat my size
 Energized, on the darkest streets I shine
 Saw the light up on the mountain to the peak I climb
 Breathtaking new perspectives on the life I grind
 First tear of joy fell, looking like I'm crying
 For just a moment
 The feeling of being content, not needing a dollar or a cent
 Smile for my mama 'cause she proud
 The studio, my headphones' loud
 Bridge builders will connect these crowds
 Dedicated on my honor you can check these vows
 That's purpose, power to make the powerful nervous
 Hard work ain't easy but easy usually ain't worth it
