Smile (Feat. Ken Oak)

[Chorus: Ken Oak]
Smile, smile smile for me
Why don'tcha smile, you can be free
In a little while, your heart will see
Just like a child, smile for me

[Prohgress:]
Yo, stress is eatin' me alive
Can't enjoy a moment, even worry on the rise
9 times out of 10, when you stop to smell the roses
Is when the opposition sneaks right under your noses
I keep my eyes open, for enemies and fakes
My body's gettin' tired, how long can they wait?
What's it gonna take, one mistake and they nail ya
Mama can't wait 'til she can label me a failure
50 in the hole and it's blurring out my vision
Sometimes I really wonder if I made the right decision
The future of my seed in the hands of my homies
One's in and out, the other's duckin from the police
I reciprocate, work my fingers to the bone
7 days a week in this shitty studio
I got one hope, if it's gone then it's all bad
But Catch never sleep, what if he dies in a car crash?

[Chorus:]
Smile, smile smile for me
Why don'tcha smile, you can be free
In a little while, your heart will see
Just like a child, smile for me

[J-Splif:]
Yo, I'm in a choke hold, it's gettin harder to breath
Havin terrifying dreams in my sleep, shit is deep
I try to fly away, but someone's tuggin at my feet
Feelin out of reach with myself in time of need
Out of my zone, fully losin control
And no amount of dope can make my problems just go
I'm losin my sanity, so I take a few hits
Escape from reality cause the truth makes me sick
Another gloomy day, the sun's been out of touch
Locked in my room all alone, feelin' stuck
The pressure's kickin' in, and this Prozac ain't enough
And I know in the future I'm a lose the ones I love
It scares me to death, but the clock won't stop tickin'
So I keep livin' with my hopes and ambitions
Enjoy my stay on Earth, flash my pearly whites
Cause when it hits your turn, you gon' take an early flight

[Chorus:]
In a little while, your heart will see
Just like a child, smile for me

[KevNish:]
Chillin' in the Village feelin' right
In the mornin' yawnin cause the doja got me high
My scrambled Cinemax and HBO is out of sight
I'm infomercial zonin', do I flip or do I buy?
I'm messin' with this chick, caught on my dick
Thinkin' how she fell in love
With a pimp, wantin' a hit, wantin' none of the above
Now some kid's up in the mix, playa's never usin glove
My Sidekick's out of service cause my anytime is up
Eyes is closed, cause I'm hopin' when I open 'em
Time won't go back to 1999 when my mind was wrong
Educated with the answer to open doors, hold the phone, pause
You's a fool, wanna make it in the swimmin pool, blew his cool
My reflections need a miracle, life is full
Of everything I never wanted
Dive in, thank the Lord I can't swim

[Chorus:]
Smile, smile smile for me
Why don'tcha smile, you can be free
In a little while, your heart will see
Just like a child, smile for me
