[Lyric] Piano In The Dark (District 36)

[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 shit 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 nigga 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 nigga, no
I don’t be missing that
Promise me this and that
Sucka type of nigga
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, shit... 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 shit fuck-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
Shit, 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]
