Robscure - Grateful Dust lyrics

Artist: Robscure

album: EARTH EP


Everyone in the world has gone to bed one night or another with fear
Or pain or loss
Or disappointment
And yet each of us has awaken, arisen
Somehow made our ablutions
Seen other human beings
And said, Morning, how are you?
Fine thanks, and you?
It's amazing
Wherever that abides in the human being
There is the nobleness of the human spirit
Despite it all
Maya Angelou
Chess piece movin' on its own accord
No one check on you in this lonely world
Heart get knocked down, shown no remorse
You gotta get that bishop if you know your worth
Speak your truth until your throat is horse
You ain't no rook once you took the floor
Wanna be a king but they call you pawn
Well next year you're gonna own the board
So one step at a time cuz that's all you can do
Back to square one with all you been through
No can do, the only path is forward
On the other side's where you transform, or so they say
You don't need a queen to beat the game
If you get her back, you'll just see she changed
All you got is you and that's not a lot
So what's your survival plot, as a
Grain of sand movin' through the sands of time
Try'na put to good use the chance to ride
The amber waves ampersand the Atlantic tide
God damn, we be damn to die
Turned to dust as a pantomime
Must express your mind
Independent of whether they understand the rhyme or reason
Carve a mark regardless and sand it fine
Even if it means goin' against the grain
And they say that you vandalizin'
Turn away, strap your sandles tight
You ain't here forever
Better ban the Sandman from eyes
Open 'em wide to expand horizons
God lookin' wry while you walk the maze
Try'na break bread in a box of rain
You don't need a sand dollar, but the thought's ingrained
If we grateful dead, then why not today
We're alive
Cherish the ride
Till I die
All my homies are humble
Rose from the rubble your soul crumbles into
When you thinking nobody love you
I love you for who you really are, beautifully scarred
I see the hope in the struggle
Noses too stuffed to smell roses, suppose I'm still owned by the hustle
Slowin' my stride feel almost like I'm dying
And sleep feel like askin' the reaper to cuddle
Woke up in an uncontrollable cold puddle of sweat
And realized that I been all alone all along
No one who can promise you what god'll do
Here today, gone tomorrow, we live in a space and time borrowed
Chronic crumbled on the coffee table
Notebook pages faded but nothing is muddled, no fables inside
They say "facade" but I say I'm creating my life one day at a
Why do you play with your time as if it doesn't matter
While dashin' to make up your mind what to do
They say pick for the cash or your wishes'll shatter
Don't differ from patterns
They play us for fucking fools
What's a rule to a king, though? Can't tell me nothin
I show don't tell, so just watch if you wanna know
What it look like to be someone
I'm my momma's sun and I rise
We're alive
Cherish the ride
Till I die
My moms got up at dawn every day since 1999
To watch sun rise right
Always been my rock and my life line
So who am I to deny 'em that? I admire and
Aspire to pay homage to the way that they raised Robin
But if I go to college to get the grades that they wanted
I ain't bein' honest, and they the ones who gave me a conscience
I have to prove that I can rap my route to success
But the map is a mess, and atlas, too true
So I can't really call it
I'd rather focus on the gratitude I have for you and
Keep at it until the green paddin' us like botanical roofs
Planted roots but this planet is huge
And my plan is to do it big, so I have to get movin'
I grow like ivy, though: no matter my magnitude I keep ties to home
If I should go 180, know one day you'll see the cipher
Full circle again- return to my kin
Each one of us comprise the whole earth in my chest
Though I rise alone
