It Just Is - Dälek

Never the optimist

I opt to walk with fist clenched

Devilish ideas permeate room like burnt incense

At four decks, some might consider a career finished

'Nuff frustration in these veins for infinite writtens

I’m just beginning

This path has always felt more of a mission

Misguided adults pretending to have answers for seeds

On the real B, they shittin'

Only lesson I’ve learnt?

Nobody listens

And that’s a shame considering caliber content already witnessed

Taste forever shifting as existence is subjective

Most will miss the message

But it’s there in every sentence

Hope to raise a generation of questions

A full brigade of dissension

Expect to endure lifetimes of tensions

My heroes are barely mentioned

And perhaps obscurity is where I’m destined

But while I’m here I continue to speak in absence of fear

Formulating ideas indifferent to social norms

Willing to explore more

Consider yourselves warned!

It ain’t gon' be alright

We ain’t gon' win

There ain’t no happy ends

There just is

What we have is the haves and the have-nots

The beefs and the gunshots

The good and the bad thoughts

What brought us here to hear has been drowned out by a cacophony of fear

What’s stopping we is fear

Left with a million I’s helplessly watching

Denying our subconscious

Fuck sparring, we born boxing

These toxic levels of discourse

Leaves us with no recourse

We forced to those shadows that whisper our names

Perhaps we are all the same

But somehow it seems some are just seedier

Systematic lack of compassion towards the needier

We are so enamored with that illusion of freedom

Mistook that asphalt for Eden

Odds are even that we all leave not breathing

Without an ounce of true meaning

Once we gone, ain’t nobody grieving

Sunrise, sunset

Change seasons

Just cause

No rhyme

No reasons

It ain’t gon' be alright

We ain’t gon' win

There ain’t no happy ends

There just is

There just is

There just is

There just is
