ShayDbest — Stung To Consciousness — lyrics
VERSE 1
Yea
Huh
ShayDbest
Damn
This life is tragic
So many dreams capsizing like the titanic
It makes a nigga wanna panic
I’m stuck in traffic, while I’m philosophizing
The agonizing state of the nation is traumatizing!
F**k
Moving in circles
Maybe stuck on reversal
Back and forth we rise and fall
Like the naira damn it sucks
Like a leach
The politicians getting rich
Living off our currencies
They claim they making policies
To better the economy
So it seems
Till you turn to the T.V screen
Then you see
Lot of heartbreaking scenes
Terrorism on the lose
Dead bodiеs on the news
Damn it I’m confuse
So much pain I don seen
Makеs this thought of moving overseas so appealing, (huh)
It’s so appalling how we living
Moving with our hands on the trigger
Blood on the streets, blood on the flag
Thinking what’s the use of the man at the rock?
Tell me, yea, tell me
When the dollars rising
BP rising
People dying
Children starving
Lecturers are busy striking
Leaving youngins on the internet
Cyber surfing
Now obsessing
Over shit they can’t afford
CHORUS:
Uh why?
Damn it’s never easy to do right
The kind of pain we face to provide
My stress and my conscience is weighing on me
This ain’t the life that we use to
Ain’t no reward if you do good
There is no choice we can choose to
Things ain’t right so we stay neutral to survive
VERSE 2:
Pay attention as I put things in perspective
Painting you a bigger picture like da vinci
Stinging you to consciousness
Like a gadfly
Best believe it’s way beyond the similes and the metaphors
I hope the truth will hit you like a thunderstorm
They stashing loots
They claim the starving youths are lazy youths
Crazy things are happening
We are grappling
With corrupted government
It’s a lot of looting and ebezzlement
Bunch of sycophants in the parliament
Eloquent but ignorant
Fraudulent just like huh hush puppy
They prolly cashing out on a daily
Homie said this crooked system is a trap
Not quite different from a prison yard
Got me working on an escape plan
Or maybe get my pvc and fight
But on a second thought
Will my vote count
Cos they snatching ballot boxes
F*cking up the process
(?)
Damn
I’m tired of this sh*t nigga
CHORUS:
Uh why?
Damn it’s never easy to do right
The kind of pain we face to provide
My stress and my conscience is weighing on me
This ain’t the life that we use to
Ain’t no reward if you do good
There is no choice we can choose to
Things ain’t right so we stay neutral to survive
