But What About Today
But what about today
What about today i ain't worried about
The next cuz it ain't here
Im gonna live my life for everything that it
Is and try not to shed no tears
Ain't no wishing upon a star cuz i
Can't see them from the hood
And even if i make it away it
Still ain't gon do me no good
My future remains to be, easy for me
It ain't one to see every where that i turn
I can't escape reality
The preacher told me a darker past
Will take away the pain
But i ain't got too long to wait
For 23 years it's been the same
Now what about
(yesterday) all i can do is pray
Cuz tomorrow ain't promising im
Paranoid with a k
I feel like im fading away and my
Eye stay too out of focus
So im living for today just
Incase you haven't noticed
But what about today
Every day i try to maintain and hope
The worst don't come to get me
Today is all i can see and
Tomorrow don got me leary
A bad time, but im feeling my past times
And on top of my sad times
Im losing my damn mind
I ain't thinking about no
(yesterday) and thats the truth
Every time im catchin a grip it's like
My life will knock me loose
Cuz all my pain explains the true still
I try and keep it going
Today is what i can understand
Cuz everything is showin
It is what it is there ain't
No mistakin hopin and dazing
This life i live with me is
Real it ain't nothin amazing
I take it like it's my last and
Clear the rest out of my way
From yesterday and tomorrow and try
To think about today
But what about today
I know that i got one life to live
And i can't focus on a dream
The past don put me on my ass
Cuz everything ain't what it seem
Reminiscing give me the trip i
Tried to block it out
Cuz memories will be the reason
Suicide will take me out
This how one might be my last and
I don't wan think about it
If it's time for me to kno i ain't
Gon try to get up out it
Now days be so dramatic like
My time be runnin thin
Everytime i feel it's over hard
Times keep killin 'gain just like
(yesterday) it hurt but i can take it
In the den below my back riding
Ruff but i can shake it will i make it
Ill never know cuz my future will never show
So im stuck on the day
Everything else im lettin go
But what about today
