Viewing lyrics for The Time Before Our Lives Shook (Royal.T) by D.T.O.X.

[Verse 1]
This may seem a little strange something like a new language/
I hope you get it soon kids, schools no longer school kids/
Used to think im stupid for snoozing in the classroom/
while cool kids cruised burning dueces in the bathroom/
spliffin up a fat doob and hit it like a bat too /
improve the point of view like someone threw it right @ you/
Swing* & then you hit the first pitch/
like a picture, it was perfect for a bit/
no pixels in this photo clip, notice how my focus is/
totally trifocal just to show my photosynthesis/
Green pigments in my skin - Greed - Power - Money - Sin/
Strippin away humanity where monsters sleep within/
Got me cuttin through the surface problems only paper thin/
Stacking up with bills, gas tanking for a fill, hungry for a meal/
if a had a mill to give Id gladly put it in my will/
to fill anothers' stomach cuz this hunger game can kill/

[Hook]
So tell me what you will, cuz i wonder what you would/
just chill for a minute, can you tell me what is good?/
Cuz everytime i look i no longer see a light source/
Im tryna find the light inside of every type of life form/
Thats what I use my MIC for, I produce my life force, Introduce my mind/
for those of you who choose to live & die by just another book/
Im here to share you mine
- the time before our lives shook (lives shook)/ [4x]
Im here to share you mine
- the time before our lives shook/
Thats what I use my MIC for, I produce my life force, Introduce my mind/
for those of you who choose to live & die by just another book/
Im here to share you mine
- the time before our lives shook/

[Verse 2]
The problems we dont cover is an issue like a magazine/
Television channeling like WHAT THE *.*.* is happening?!/
Everythings an act to their advantage like a strategy/
We cant accept the facts if we're imagining reality/
Taught to understand to know nothing at all/
Or you can choose to OVER stand to amplify the thought/
So @ the end of the day, all you have is your word/
While they indoctrinate the youth so they can rule the world/
Stealing our jewels & pearls, burning up fuel & oil/
Got us polluting earth like we produce the soil/
Go head' and do your dirt leaving your food to spoil/
So ima RAP it all up like alluminum foil, ya heard?/
We wanna know the truth but they tell us what they want to/
Just a bunch of bullshit that everyone responds to/
We'll never get it right if we share the wrong views/
I hope we get it soon before we meet our own doom/

[Hook]

[Bridge]
Freedom has a fee we call Tax & Corruption/
so in order to create we must begin with destruction/
like a soldier @ war taught to follow instructions/
to control our every being like a bodily function/
Keep an open mind when I illustrate my rhyme schemes/
I tell you what I see but I think you hear my blindly/
the clock keeps ticking with its infinite timing/
While We're hanging by a thread just barely surviving.../

[Hook]
