LYRICS for "IRONY"

Chorus

I try to live my life to the limit
I gotta lay my life on the line
Most people they don't like what I'm spitting
But they all say they like how I rhyme
Ironyâ¦things ainât always what it seems to be

Verse 1 - Elus

Perception, reality, ain't one in the same
My aim on change I'm just working on change
I need dollars stacked, no support no acknowledgement
If you're with me then holla back
That's why I tend to keep to myself
It's not for when I get pie, eat for myself
Was baked as whole for the team
At young was Dr. King won't let go of the dream
My rhymes get felt like dope in syringe
Kept eyes on prize my focus is keen..reflect
I been doing this for years now, not a beat, mic, or stage I won't tear down
I appear now arms in the air now can I get a "it's your boy"â¦what a weird sound
Nameâs Elus and I represent the boogie hip hop savior resurrected fullyâ¦still...

Chorus

I try to live my life to the limit
I gotta lay my life on the line
Most people they don't like what I'm spitting
But they all say they like how I rhyme
Ironyâ¦things ainât always what it seems to be

Verse 2 - Elus

They want change but that ain't what's happening
Ironically the game stained from monotony (Elus)
More than a commodity advise you acknowledge me, no honestly (true story)
Allow the king to reign like mala be (what up mala)
Avoiding all the politic policies
I dropped out of college to pursue a dream
That's why I go hard trying to do my thingâ¦really
Imma make it out the hood mama
Immaâ¦Imma make it out for good mama, karma
Ain't coming back, on the road to success feel I'm running laps
That's the game of life played no running backsâ¦its all lies
So keep your aim high, are you relating yet
I'm a keep on the grind without breaking sweats
No time to recline or take a breathâ¦still

Chorus

I try to live my life to the limit
I gotta lay my life on the line
Most people they don't like what I'm spitting
But they all say they like how I rhyme
Ironyâ¦things ainât always what it seems to be

Verse 3 - Darq

They say things ain't always what they seem to be
But look at me now..relevant just being me
Myself and I have taken blows over time
Seems it was me holding me back from getting mine
For years I nurtured the style, that's why I boast
They shitted on my name and tone time to raise a toast
Never enough water felt along the way I stunted growth
But raised through the thorns why they fill the rows
With fans in their seated positions in adoration
Of me center stage stuck in amazement
Looking to the crowd, seeking validation
They leap to they feet in a standing ovation
"Cheering" so when the mic's on "you hear me?"
You hear the crowd roar "ohhh" you cut the lights off "on"
I let the rhymes soar "go" you passing judgment get off your high horse
Cuz they hear for me (me) reciting my songs (that's irony)

Chorus

I try to live my life to the limit
I gotta lay my life on the line
Most people they don't like what I'm spitting
But they all say they like how I rhyme
Ironyâ¦things ainât always what it seems to be
