Rietti In This Pit
[Intro: Rietti]
I dunno man, I'm getting sick of this merry-go-round way of life
They say… if you put your cards your dealt on the table
We'll all take our own back, right?
[Verse 1: Rietti]
You know I'm, stressed, depressed, I'm in a giant mess
Don't whether to express or play it close to my chest
This same chest had treasures but its not full of gold
Third degree burns, plus the coal won't fuel my soul
And I lack the gas to drive me, through this pro-pain
I'm out my element/domain, only depend on my do-ray
Me-fah-so. Is there music after life?
Ignorance is what prevents me from departing tonight
I'm in a tight spot, career plans falling apart
A granola bar, can't afford even half rent
And I've spent six hours in this damn deli
In a raw stench of chicken, both of my hands smelly
Come on tell me the cliche, more money more issues right?
Funny thing is without it, it's tears and tissues, a fight
A pain to stay stable, remain amiable
Some ain't even able to lay hay on the table, the same old
[Chorus: Rietti]
Pit it's a fight
Only the fittest survive
So be persistent and strive
Don't you diminish your light
Pit it's a fight
Only the fittest survive
So be persistent and strive
Don't you diminish your light
[Verse 2: Rietti]
Strolling home from work, might have been nine
“Kike” some hobo jeered as I enquired the time
Frickin mad at me, so bad that he spat at me
But thats not the only jab trapping me in a black alley
Got me pensive, beginning to question any religion
Leaders advocate to practice hate then everyone listens
Its difficult to be spiritual when your own race is racist
It alters your beliefs till you cease to pray graces
All these beards, fellactories, faces and places
Disappear without traces, heritage back to basics
And basically thats the rut I'm experiencing
I scorch in satan's flames in exchange for cleansing
Whats the point in being born, yo, I ask everyday
Maggots munch us to dust and we just decay?
There's more in my brain thats just some of the cells
Released off my Fort Knox, eyo death doesn't dwell
[Chorus: Rietti]
Pit it's a fight
Only the fittest survive
So be persistent and strive
Don't you diminish your light
Pit it's a fight
Only the fittest survive
So be persistent and strive
Don't you diminish your light
Pit it's a fight
Only the fittest survive
So be persistent and strive
Don't you diminish your light
Pit it's a fight
Only the fittest survive
So be persistent and strive
Don't you diminish your light
