Days Chasing Days by Groundation
Days Chasing Days lyrics
Man, I see days chasing days. Everything stays the same
No more night & day, everything is gray papier-m�ch�
Same song on the radio by the same ole artist
Same asshole on CNN giving the same �no comments�
The same he-say-she-say shit
Grab any given weekday and just put it on replay
�Ring-Ring� Rise and shine! Time to lye on the couch
And watch TV till your eyes go blind
Watch the guy in the Gucci suit talk about �trying
times�
And the guy that sold you the gun, turn around fighting
crime
Days chasing days, people make mistakes/
And don�t think solution � they look for somewhere to
place the blame.
It�s Just Days Chasing Days � Everything stays the same
Enemy�s names will change, but their deeds remain in
place
What are these arranged mistakes, but a link in the
chains of fate
With the singular basic aim to deplete us of age and
strength
You can flee or embrace this replay of the Deja scene
in The Matrix
But keeping beneath the blankets won�t stave off seeing
the day shift
So, instead of being evasive, I portray �brave� and I
face it
As I watch in amazement, as these paid pricks do this
lame shit
And then trade shifts on the same staged hit, �bout
fame & dollars
Niggas ain�t biting no more, they�re just claiming
they�re paying homage/
I�m saying, God must be the illest producer/
He fills us with youth, but trims us out before we can
hear where the sample loops up.
Chorus
Sometimes it makes me wanna say (Oh Lord!)
Sometimes it makes me wanna shout (Oh Lord!)
Sometimes it makes me wanna scream (Oh Lord!)
I�m sick and tired of these days chasing days. (Oh
Lord!)
Yo, Chords, man. I really hope these days�ll catch up
again
Till then, I�ll gnash up the back of my pen, cause it
acts as my last defense/
Of my head against these sad and tragic events
That happen when history�s repeating itself, eating
itself for the lack of an end/
And I�m tackling trends � It�s all misleading
Just gimme 2 pair of my Adidas and we�ll call it even
See, I�m not a mad rapper, I�m just frustrated
To see ya profiting with something you ripped off and
barely bothered to update it!
So, fuck waiting another 10 years, till these twerps
say
That what I was doing a decade ago is the reason they
rhyme in the first place/
Hah! So in a worst-case scenario, I work with a smirked
face
And pervert breaks and assertively rape your stereo.
Chords
I see days chasing days. Everything stays the same
I�ve seen Jesus become a patron saint of a paper chase
I�ve seen wars justified by one verse of �Amazing
Grace�
Been face to face with the Devil in the most sacred
places
Seen Utopia for what it is � A Pipe dream
Seen murderous mind schemes, turning the world to a
crime scene
Learn that, whether winter, spring, summer or fall
Empires will plummet and fall to the ground and crumble
apart
So, is it me or these venetian blinds/
That keep my mind, lagging like a week behind
Cause all this darkness is treating me like razor
blades
And there�s no light � All I see are days chasing days.
