Someday

Lyrics

[Helixx C. Armageddon] They say the eyes are the window to your world Precious golden pearls They tell a story A vivid story of the past Our lives in just one flash Spectral colors shown through the years Blood, sweat, and tears What we hold dear is often called the trying times Triumph and struggle Intertwined lines [Big Tara] Raised in the sixth borough Trapped in the lab like a rat in reverse Ain't know what it meant to be black Female, not fast Middle class, no dad in the fam But my mom, she had a plan Get me out the ghetto But I couldn't let go That was my home But school tried to brainwash my dome I knew what I was getting in Saved by the melanin, but then again I was still kinda shy But it wasn't fear of all the eyes Fear was a failure It made me too scared to try So that's why, I only gave about ten percent I had no idea how I should represent For who? For what? No fun the guts or glory My life was tight boring, I was snoring That's where my crew enters the story They lifted me up and started to support me [Helixx C. Armageddon] Born and bred From the streets of south-side Queens A tough scene to be growing up in during the 1980 Just maybe I'd live through the drug strain Hard-knock terrain for a Catholic school girl Watching her family struggle against the world To make life easier for their seed The young breed, or rather young trees Sprouting roots in a time when the boroughs were driven by crime What's yours was mine, in theory Parental steering helped me to see what was vast In order to flip the hourglass And allow more time to flourish Mentally nourishing wisdom And gradually growing into a reflection of the times in which we reside Inner pride helped me to embrace the guiding light And fight to survive, and strive for what's right [Helixx C. Armageddon] Someday I wish that same light would be in my life but for now I guess I have to find another way Someday I wish that same light would be in my life but for now I guess I have to find another way [Pri the Honeydark] I used to dream about me living my life in my utmost fantasy A life that I was damned to see Brought back to reality I stared to be a thousand miles away They said distance no resistance Because only one things leads to my existence That's my baby boy, huh My pride and joy The only reason why I starve to death at night is so that he can eat And that be bittersweet And even when I cry I look into his eyes, I'm mesmerized I think he got me hypnotized, the reason why Because I can't remember All the pain, all the monthly rent that's backed up 'til December The only thing I see it be a new light of eternity A light in which my future's bright The only thing concerning me, the day will come When I won't have to run When I won't have to hide and I can laugh at all the reasons why I cried and what I feel inside My baby boy'll feel me 'Cause he knows that mommy bust her ass for each and every meal [Helixx C. Armageddon] Lullabies foreshadowing my dreams it's like a scream As scenes careening down through sound I feel the motion, deep explosion But it's so profound I never thought that I'd awaken truly naked 'til my feelings with my past Someday I wish that same light would be in my life but for now I guess I have to find another way Someday I wish that same light would be in my life but for now I guess I have to find another way
