Story Behind The Song

Daniel and I were listening to a song on the radio in Miami that had a flute playing in it, and we were really feeling the vibe. I told him that I just feel like getting a lot of stuff off my chest. He asked if I wanted a beat with a flute like the one we were listening to. I said definitely. When we got to the studio, he laced a track in about a half hour while I began writing as soon as I heard the basic drum beat. What cam out was "Life's Patrols."

Song Description

A song that highlights and insinuates the need for revolution in our lives. It also teaches us to not believe everything we hear on the radio or see in TV.

Lyrics

Life?s Patrols
V1: Cousins are too scared to speak their mind/ I sleep behind/ Seeking then release my find/ It seems blind to most/ But the reason my mind transcends time is the climb that I?ve made should coast/ Make most shake/ Yo, these guys are flaky/ I wake up with headaches/ My ideas tracing/ Touched/ Encompass much like Macys/ Then battle dumb kids/ With their bum ideas/ Amazing to my peers/ ?Cause I?ve faced my fears/ Whether it?s insecurities with appearance or the early years/ Killing the majority/ Authority in hand/ To clean up the poverty striking our land/ The poor have got voices/ Don?t ignore their noises/ A difference can be hoisted/ With positive poison/ I inject to bless the best/ Pest is here/ To cause the rap game to inspire with cheer/.

Hook: I don?t really know why you came out tonight to lose/ I don?t claim to be hot/ But the music never lies and it?s saying you?re not/ I just make the most of these rhymes that define my views/ I believe that with the love we hold/ We can take control of this world/ Life?s patrols/.

V2: Here we go/ Second verse/ Same flows, just challenged/ How is the balance of life so easily damaged?/ In our everyday struggle, same rules apply/ Every guy, chick and bisexual dude abides/ By the laws of the land/ All drawn up by man/ Rich beaurocrats/ Who plan assassinations of Arafat/ Democrats, Republicans making us choose/ While it just proves/ Either way, we all seem to lose/ In the news or on the TV screen/ Channel 2 or BBC/ The horrendous shows its horns/ It?s endless/ Cornering man?s intelligence to what?s proven/ Snorting propaganda with the crack were using/ And what?s sad is the blues in the music is gone/ I no longer have the stuff that I grew up on/ So I?m here writing songs/ Influence is born/ Not the cause of the millis/ But because I?m strong/ C?mon/.
Hook
V3: Let the rhythm bleed/ Feel it indeed/ Drip on your sleeve/ This is me/ The Juk-man/ Rapping like you can?t/ Human/ With more flows than chicks have bras/ And I?m not talking Europeans living au natural/ Still my females inhale smoke from this dope beat/ Getting high off my tone and the words I speak/ I don?t care what your thoughts of me are/ I?m setting truth from my heart till I end up in the E.R.
