Life Is a Tightrope by Enframe Lyrics
Haha, yeah
Slow it down
They say
Don't move too fast
Fine line between speed and too much gas
They say
Don't go too slow
Fine line between patience and losing control
Life is a tightrope
Gotta do my best
Get it off my throat
So much smoke in my words that I choke
Blacked out lungs, but that's how I cope
I guess that speaks for foundation
Before I partied on the roof working in the basement
No degree, lack a formal education
Pressure from society, but I never caved in, no
I was just focused on the pavement
Lightning McQueen with the road I'm making
All around mе, all I see quaking
My martinis are the only thing shaking (Yeah)
You can't move me, I be standing strong like an Evergreen
Morals got me still like a trunk in the breeze
I spit in the face of mediocrity
When I speak they suddenly still
Doing something to you
You can't find in a pimp because
Sincerity in my words is real
I ain't lookin for approval you already know the deal
They say
Don't move too slow
Fine line between lazy and losing control
They say
Don't go too fast
Fine line between speed and too much gas
(haha, uh)
Life is a tightrope
Gotta do my best
Get it off my throat
So much smoke in my words that I choke
Blacked out lungs, but that's how I cope
Even when I lose I don't really fail
Just learn from it --------
No win promise yall would tune in that's the breeze that keep the beat movin
Takin off like shoes on my feet
Timbs on but I still find a way to win the track meet
Too slow, too fast
Get off my back
If I cared what you thought then I woulda asked
Everybody watching me from the sidelines
Yelling out plays like they playin when its game time
People wanna slow your pace when you enter your prime
Saying these are the rules, thats a guideline
Folks scared of what they ain't seen before
Scary movie type fear like what's behind the door
Scared to come around the shop, don't know its a store
Scared I'll hit em with a rock like Paramore, therefore
They don't even implore ask why
Ignorance is bliss when the grass on your side
Just let a man be how much freedom cost
Lord knows it ain't free
Askin hard questions, curiosity
Can't think like this when you swallow animosity
737 imma take off
Plane to see
Levels to the rhyme Bernie made off of my seat
They say
Don't move too fast
Fine line between speed and too much gas
They say
Don't go too slow
Fine line between patience and losing control
Life is a tightrope
Gotta do my best
Get it off my throat
So much smoke in my words that I choke
Blacked out lungs, that's how I cope
(Uh huh uh huh, life is a tightrope
Yea yea, life is a tightrope)
They say
Slow it down
They say
Don't move too fast
Fine line between speed and too much gas
They say
Don't go too slow
Fine line between patience and losing control
Life is a tightrope
Gotta do my best
Get it off my throat
So much smoke in my words that I choke
Blacked out lungs, but that's how I cope
