Thursday in the Danger Room (feat. Kamasi Washington) (Explicit)

Thursday in the Danger Room (周四的危险房间) (Explicit) - Run The Jewels/Kamasi Washington

Right for a right wrong for a wrong

This is clearly not life's design

Figure out quickly that nothing gets answered

When you ask the universe why

Life is a journey to live is to worry

To love is to lose your damn mind

But living's a blessing so I am not stressing

'Cause some of my friends ain't survived

That's the release but in much bigger pieces

I'm living on limited time

Like how do you look in the eyes of a friend

And not cry when you know that they're dying

How do you feel 'bout yourself when you know

That sometimes you had wished they were gone

Not because you didn't love 'em but just

Because you felt too weak to be strong

You couldn't bear to see someone who prided

Themselves on the strength to feel weak

You prove to your randomness hold it for ransom

That life will not fade in your dreams

You see that they're fighting and know

That they're losing but still you make jokes and you laugh

'Cause you know despite all the sadness

That you better get the good times while they last

Now every new word that they speak

You are already feeling like it's in the past

And when they all gone you just try to move on

'Cause the memory's hurting too bad

Grown up so much and I wonder who you'd've

Become if you stuck for a while

Just know that I love you good friend

Ain't forget you and when I remember I smile

And I guess I'd say I'll see you soon

But the truth is that I see you now

Still talk to you like you're around

And I guess I say you left too soon

But the truth is that you never left

'Cause I never let myself forget

An eye for an eye and a tooth for the tooth

Will leave us all mumbling and blind

So we stumble blind through depths of the dark

Looking for something divine

Life is a journey to live is to suffer

And I have been suffering through mine

But living's a blessing so I ain't no stressing

'Cause some of my niggas ain't 'round

He got no drama but his baby mama

Is still on my line and she cryin'

I searched for the words to give her some comfort

For her soul and spirit and mind

I tell her that it'll be fine

But deep down I know that I'm lying

The family came took rings and his chains

The bank took the house and the rights

The only thing left was his child

And she had a smile in his eyes

So much to the soul when the grandmama kept her

She'd look at her sometime and cry

The very next day she cried

And day after day she cried

Then called baby mama and told her

I'm sorry can't keep her no more I have tried

No killer was captured but I know he listening

So I'd like to tell you in song

The streets was a jungle

I pray that you made it

I hope that you righted your wrongs

I hope that you learn

I hope that you changed so your mama won't know this pain

So my homie's name will mean something

More than a ni**a got killed for a chain

And I guess I'd say I'll see you soon

But the truth is that I see you now

Still talk to you like you're around

And I guess I say you left too soon

But the truth is that you never left

'Cause I never let myself forget
