Sippin’ Poison (Secret Song)

[Intro] [Verse 1 - Slow Minimalism - Slow Cinematic Swoops - Smooth Bass Movement] When you run your mouth with all your shameless talk, you’re sippin’ poison from the devil’s cup. When it comes to true value, cash belongs in the trash with spirit, cigarettes and hash. [Verse 2 - Music Increases - Slow Cinematic Swoops - Smooth Bass Movement] If you think you’re above, think you’re on top, you’re probably drinkin’ from the devil’s cup. Life is so much more when you drop your ego. Don’t mistake it for self-esteem — validation bought with money always fades fast. [Verse 3 - Slow Minimalism - Slow Cinematic Swoops - Smooth Bass Movement] So much for something that never lasts. You ask, “What else is there?” Appreciation is what’s missing. If you look around, there’s always something — something to be thankful for. Count your blessings every day, and you’ll feel richer in every way [Verse 4 - Single Deep Sharp Kick] I know it’s tough when you want to quit [Music Continues - Slow Cinematic Swoops - Smooth Bass Movement] the things that keep you chained. Thought you stopped, but now you’re takin’ a hit. The shame you feel means there’s still hope. There’s a truth out there to help you cope. You’re walking a tightrope — but there’s no hope in that dope. [Bridge - Music Increases - Slow Cinematic Swoops - Smooth Bass Movement] I know it’s easy for me to say these things. I know it hurts, I know it stings. [Chorus - Slow Cinematic Swoops - Smooth Bass Movement] Believe me when I say it’s out of love, not hate. I can still show love even when I can’t relate. Most people hate the truth — but you could rise above every fall you’ve ever known and become wise and tough, all learned through respect and love. [Outro - Slow, Calm, Warm, Low Volume Spoken Word In The Background With End-Of-Line Echoes] “You thought it ended. You barely recognize yourself. Lost in your habits of self destruction. I see you. I see beneath. I’m still here..”
