[Intro]
oh yeah… Murphy’s Watch!
This here… is for all my…
post 80’s babies… 1990 ‘til infinity

[Verse 1]
“why do today what you could do tomorrow instead?”,
I ponder as I puff on my last Marlboro Red
and, with no shame, I take the longest of drags
back against the wall, saying hello to my past
now, I could change if I find the will
just another twentysomething with time to kill
but I’ll be up all night like Drizzy say
I’ll die young but I ain’t doing nothing anyway
by now, I figured I’d be living it up
instead, I make a living off delivering subs
I coulda been somebody, now I’m everything
to my bretheren, man, all I’m is getting is love
sometimes, you gotta lose some to win some
and where I’m headed means income then some
just need enough to pay a year of rent up--
front and a lifetime beer fund

[Hook]
because the good die young
that means our days are numbered
so we gots to stay up
‘cause we ain’t gettin’ younger
work hard, play hard
that’s why we never slumber
living every single moment like the end of summer

[Verse 2]
just another troubled offspring
let the world talk, I’ma keep doing my thing
middle finger high chanting “who gon’ stop me?!”
I would trade it all for my dawgs in the posse
I want the love, ain’t tripping about a name
the kinda camaraderie you can’t break
take a trip back to days as a gits back in Pre-K
and ain’t a damn thing changed
as a youth, I was glued to the stoop
now, that boy is something rude in the booth
no matter how many emcees I heat up, it’s never enough
to a family that scared to see me dead or in cuffs
that’s why emceeing keeps the mind at ease
in a society where it’s a crime to dream
and since my degree wasn’t wise to seek
it seems this rap stint means die or succeed

[Hook]

[Bridge]
some days, I wanna just bathe in the rain
and then air out under the golden sun
some nights, I wanna just vibe, my ones’ tight,
so I just kick back and roll me one

sometimes I get a good feeling and
I’ve got a feeling that I’m not the only one
