District 36 - Piano In The Dark lyrics

[Chorus] Softly as if I played piano in the dark Softly as if I played piano in the dark (huh) Softly as if I played piano in the dark Yeah softly as if I played piano in the dark [Verse 1: Grafic] I'm approaching my 10 year reunion feeling miserable right Cause I feel like I haven't done sh** in my life Except doubt myself, it's an invisible fight But it's comforting to know no one can spit it this nice I'm like the Sistine Chapel when it's over and said Cause the way I paint pictures is over ya head Michelangelo, Da Vinci – Grafic the Vincy Vincentian born, word is bond crafty and witty Nasty and gritty, I'm out for the dollars man Don't approach I roll with a rowdy band At shows Put the crowd in a body bag Spit the truth hand on the bible hooked to a polygraph Y'all can call me Graf Girlies call me Baby Boy We got the fans vibrating like a ladies toy I wrote 10 resolutions hoping to focus more But in less than a week n***a I broke ‘em all It's like my soul is lost What am I hoping for? It's like pouring salt into an open soar This hip hop game I'm trying to open doors Our give a gift in the form of a Trojan horse My eyes wide from the crimes and the homicides I always wonder if I'll cry when my poppa dies I don't know But that's my kin I hate when my momma says that I'm just like him Cause I'm nothing like that n***a, no I don't be missing that Promise me this and that s**a type of n***a But I still love ‘em I see him every couple years I still hug ‘em Now that's real cousin [Chorus] [Verse 2: Seth Kay] See I'm the type that always hoped for a better tomorrow And when tomorrow comes, sh**... I just bet on tomorrow, damn You call it false hope - or true optimism Broke all my life man, no pot to piss in I had a clear view of that top position Then lost focus and I don't have goggle vision (nah) Hey but I do got a vision, that maybe I could blow Or my pride got my tripping Look, I really can't take life right now They say the pen is therapeutic, so I write life down, ugh And give you that real sh** f**-a-Grammy flow Bottle in my hand like a Dame Dash cameo My hometown, that's who I do it for And they keep telling me I need to push the music more sh**, I could only agree But I always keep the drapes closed homie, if you only could see Cause see the bills said I owe, I said only a fee The landlord said I'm late, I said only a week And which rapper said he fire? Man he only debris Look that's only a peak, that ain't the half of it (ugh) Hey dear lord, this is only a plea You see I'm hopeless depressed to a lonely degree It's rubbing off, even my girl looking lonely to me But I'm too monogamous, I can only do me Yeah - it's all real, ain't no fake talk I know that road to riches, it ain't no cake walk, and Stuck in the trenches, it ain't no days off Flow razor blade sharp, that piano plays soft, and Seth go hard, yeah that's really all I got left So I gotta get right, at least I know I got next Got a lot on my plate, I got pain, I got stress Somehow I'm still hungry, got up - god bless Ugh, cause every day I get older Addicted to this life, I just pray I get sober I really need some time by myself to think For now let me buy myself a drink, a drink and sip softly... As if I played piano in the dark [Chorus]
