We got one love We got one day One time One time [Verse 1] Out from under this rock that you stone me with It don't mean shit Whatever stone you skip another home is hit To close to call it something I love It's something i'm not quite sure of I learned to deal and keep the ace inside my sleeve and shrug my shoulders Playing dumb making it fun the game's already won I'm just trying to hold onto what's left before it's done I've got no God to take it out on, i'm out on my own No watch or cellphone, my hoodies reek of weed smoke and not cologne I'm looking like a skeleton, i've shed so many skins And now I rock t-shirts from places i've never been This one way's a dead end, i'm to far to turn back the hands of time that pantomime I've learned to adapt Jacks thinking outside the box now With all these rocks i've found There in my pockets To keep me grounded and outta the clouds from pipe dreamers who just get smoked like John Lenin and Dr. King Chased the tails and dream coats and half way I stopped to think And stopped believing Hidden reasons to keep breathing then get out I passed a day without saying hi Just keep my head down It's the same sob story over coffee starts to bore me Life's not short, you're too busy talking about whats wrong with me Or the system, or the world, or your parents I keep my distance Taking out my days one by one like they was victims And i'll never win this battle, but i'll always dress for the war And i'll throw down my weapon whenever I question my cause [hook] I take, one more step and one more breath I take, one more step and one more breath I take, one more step and one more breath I take, one more, one more [Verse 2] Better late than never set to wake I wait for one These days are getting old maybe because the night is young I bite my tongue and breath this dead air exhale to cold stares A walkman and headphones, forget home Where do I go from here Yellow brick roads are blocked Becoming walls we stick up And in between's the dreams we go tired of and get rid off But i'm a man of few words And plenty of change from penny's saved My two cents break your dollars I'll pass the buck anyway We spend money and waste time Expecting something back But what I saved for wishing wells Slipped through cracks and fell through sewer caps It's nothing new, i've gotten used to it And choose to laugh It's either too good to be true With setbacks, it'll never last I settle for less than what it's worth, you always sell for more So fear my cold hands that never rub lamps or sell doors I've felt loss but I find my way around Used to show my hands now I keep the cards I play with face down A grey cloud nine follows behind my footsteps What you see is as good as it gets I keep this hood over my head Working for rain checks and paying dues and debts And a who slept Count my blessings in disguise but can't recognized them yet but Subtle change I run in place and come to face Met my love at first sight and lost her with the double take I keep my head above the waist My soul is hard to sell Most difficult work as an artist is to make something out of yourself [Hook] I take, one more step and one more breath I take, one more step and one more breath I take, one more step and one more breath I take, I take, one day at a time Word up
"The Ugly Truth" is a great album, but I need to hear "An Alarm Clock set for 9:01" in length. This track is amazing. I can identify with the message. Subtle references to it, yet made pretty clear. Well done.
I love this song, I just discovered Prolyphic. Great stuff. Can anyone help me find more downtemps, slowbeat, rap/hiphop songs like this one? Or juste give me a classification or something, so I could know what to look for? ^^

Playing dumb, making it fun, the games already won. Just trying to hold on to whats left before its done, I've got no god to take it on, im out on my own, no watching cell phones. My hoodies reek of weed smoke and not cologne. Im looking like a skeleton, i shed so many skins, and now i rock t-shirts from places ive never been
