A Common Excuse - Jung Seung Hwan

When stunted hand earns place with man by mere monstrosity Alarms are struck and shore is shook by sheer atrocity A cure I know that soothes the soul, does so impossibly A moment's silence when my baby puts the mouth on Me and my babe relax and catch the manic rhapsody All reason flown as God looks on in abject apathy A squall and all of me is a prayer in perfect piety A moment's silence when my baby puts the mouth on me When the meaning is gone There is clarity And the reason comes on the common tongue of your loving me And it's easy done Our little remedy And the reason comes on the common tongue of your loving me What yields the need for those who lead us, oh, so morally Those that would view the same we do through their deformity Who view the deed as power's creed, as pure authority This moment's silence when my baby puts the mouth on me Since it all begun To it's reckoning There the reason comes on the common tongue of your loving me Be thankful some know it lovingly There the reason comes in the common tongue of your loving me, ooh Like a heathen clung to the homily Let the reason come on the common tongue of your loving me So summon on the pearl rosary Let the reason come on the common tongue of your loving me

My first memory, my birthday on a party bus Pops wasn't there but that wasn't obvious In Mom's arms, in God we trust Black Mama love, everything marvelous I didn't know what I was missin', part of a system Pops is gone, Uncle in prison Inside wishin' for men to teach me 'bout girls and religion Made my own rendition of grindin' and kissin' Weekend calls to my Dad I'd listen Still I felt distant, distant like love There's only so far that words could really hug Didn't wanna be a thug, older niggas I banged with I learned a lot from them cuts in the basement The smell of blunts laced with a little bit of spice Wise, high niggas, giving me advice We go out and start fights, scuff up our Nikes Come back to talk crap and shoot a little dice This is a slice of life and memories Sittin' in my mind vividly, often they visit me (Oh, baby) Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da (Oh, oh) I'm just tryna find a way to understand (I'm tryna understand) Oh, oh (Oh, oh) How do I rewind the tape and live in it? (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh) Stayin' out late and playin' in Wonderland (Ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh) Is it in God's plan? I'm just tryna find my way to understand it Metaphors can't explain how far I came A young man at work, I made my own lane Steered away from pain, relied on drive There's a old saying, don't cry, survive As I kept building there were cranes in the sky Certain memories my brain would deny A tear laid in my eye, I was afraid to reply To the hurt that was callin', it came from the sky An older play cousin, of course I trust him But he was touchin' where he wasn't supposed to be touchin' What's a kid supposed to do? When they goin' through, what I was goin' through Don't know who to go to You want to tell somebody In many ways, I failed somebody That somebody was me Now I'm talking to little Rasheed Incarcerated heart, man, you gotta be free I felt it, when I told my man I would help with Things he was dealin' with I really hadn't dealt with Emotions meltin', I began to release it Things you can't change, you could come to peace with At least get it better for the children of forever I read the Lord's letter, I forgive our debtors They don't talk about it, maybe sharing their story Memories of home, shared pain and glory (Oh baby) Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da (Oh, oh) I'm just tryna find a way to understand (I'm tryna understand) Oh, oh (Oh, oh) How do I rewind the tape and live in it? (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh) Stayin' out late and playin' in Wonderland (Ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh) Is it God's plan? I'm just tryna find my way to understand it Said I'm tryna understand, understand, understand, understand Ayy-hey, oh-oh, oh

Light up, don't know how I did it right from the beginning, my head's kinda spinning Light up, I wont be forgiven, my life is forbidden, they say it's a miracle Sometimes I don't even know if I'm wrong or right I try to drown the sorrow that surfaces every night I'm moving at a speed that makes everybody look slow What happens if I let it go But There ain't no way you're pulling me down I recharge to speakers and sound It's okay, it isn't your fault Everything is alright Take me to the place I know Anywhere that feels like home Somewhere that if I let go Someone's gonna catch my soul Magnetic (I've never lived life, as steady as we go) Here we go! (The sky is the limit as long as it feels good) Magnetic (I've never lived life, as steady as we go) Here we go! (The sky is the limit as long as it feels good) Here we go! Show me love, Sometimes when you give you don't always get it That's all that you wanted Angels, Watch like television God over my mission, So I gotta finish up Sometimes I don't even know if I'm wrong or right I try to drown my sorrow that surfaces every night I'm moving at a speed that makes everybody looks slow What happens if I let it go But There ain't no way you're pulling me down I recharge to speakers and sound It's okay, it isn't your fault Everything is alright Take me to the place I know Anywhere that feels like home Somewhere that if I let go Someone's gonna catch my soul Magnetic (I've never lived life, as steady as we go) Here we go!
