[Chorus]
Ebony shade, struggles and pain
One day you laugh, one day, you cry
One day you’re alive, one day you die
Ebony shade, struggles and pain
[Verse 1]
Black and white, white and black
My host country, applauded
Cursed, I puke on my page
I’ve seen it all, told nothing
Half-thug, Half-angel
I’m too far in to go back, locked up I grew up
I wanna be, I’m gonna become
Today I don’t pray, it’s sunday
I only got one life, the munchies
I only got target, I only got one bullet
Good as my word, I’m just a man
I’m just a flame,I just got one woman
CEO of a label,nigga, I’m a light sleeper
If my life is shitty, don’t think yours is better
Got it? It's 9.2, our bitterness is better here
The sky plays hide-and-seek, fate gets old
Smoking hash kills, smoking hash heals
[Chorus]
Ebony shade, struggles and pain
One day you laugh, one day, you cry
One day you’re alive, one day you die
Ebony shade, struggles and pain
[Verse 2]
One stab for some cash, one call for ten keys
Shit's dramatic in jail, jumpin you for one gram
I believed it when I saw, I learned when I read
Pen, visiting room, like a dog, like a black man
Our hope is dough, real values are no longer
Shit doesn't make us happy nor does it makes us miserable
Me I like when it's shiny, when bullets rain, when there's slanging
Banlieues are dangerous, shit ain't written in the Bible
One day you cry, one day you laugh
B2O is my A.K.A, nobody will go where I'm heading
If you don't got no reasons to live…
Find a reason to die for
I want you hating 'cause I shine, I wanna hear it from you
May your queen be my bitch, may you fear the worst
Personally I dream, accomplish stuff even if I die misunderstood
Got lipstick on my dick, ink in my veins
Oil on my lips, my life got that mournful beauty
Rainfalls of happiness, cyclones of pain
[Outro]
One day you laugh, one day, you cry
One day you’re alive, one day you die
Ebony shade, struggles and pain
