Green Mile by Nomis [Rapper] Lyrics
INTRO:
I see the people and they're crying for help/
So I ain’t ready to die until I'm done dying to myself/
V1:
No more looking the other way first/
No more waiting on the samaritan/
No more waiting for you to care/
And debating on who should carry him blatantly its embarrassing/
"it ain't my responsibility, the calling is gonna choose them"/
Try saying that with a straight face/
When I pass through the great gates and he asks, whats my excuse then?/
I’m walking this Green Mile now/
But I don't see a finish line/
'cause he ain't finished with me yet/
Finish breakfast first that last suppers dinner time/
I see the people and they're crying for help/
So I ain't ready to die until Im done dying to myself/
(2X)
POEM:
But lets be honest/
The circle of those out of reach is a diameter far superior to the sphere of those who are actually in arms length/
And the bitter irony of it all/
Is that so many who are actually in arms length are so far out of touch, that they couldn't reach those without, even if they tried to/
Viewing life with binoculars on backwards/
Non exposure becoming non existence/
We don't stand for what we don’t see/
I see the people and they’re crying for help/
So I ain't ready to die until Im done dying to myself/
(2X)
BRIDGE:
Rarely do you see an MC out for justice
(3x)
Everything is anything/
Anything everything/
And all of it is only for the ones who are in reach/
V2:
When I’m dead and gone/
My vital isn't on but life within the song is ripe within it strong/
When I'm dead and gone/
I tried to end a wrong I trifled with the "johns" and fighted them with brawn/
When I'm dead and gone/
I sighted timid, calm ignited them along inspired them to spawn/
When I’m dead and gone/
My title isn't gone he knighted him a don the night'll end at dawn/
I see the people and they're crying for help/
So I ain’t ready to die until I'm done dying to myself/
V1:
No more looking the other way first/
No more waiting on the samaritan/
No more waiting for you to care/
And debating on who should carry him blatantly its embarrassing/
