Luyện nghe bài hát Rain Water

(Various Samples)
The question was to me the other day
why I to always have joy.
Well I'd like to take to set the record straight.
All the joy I've known has disappeared...

(Brother Ali)
Uh, into thin air.
Like never even been there.
My joy left me y'all.
Shit I never hang my man.

And God's rain water flow through the gutter
that we walk today, stay brave brotha.
you your lip stiff, keep your fist clenched.
At times you kick your way through this bitch.

And I can't feelin' guilty smilin'.
A wise man once me that every cloud has a silver linin'.
I wanted to him but its a trick to find em'
when the people around me dyin'.
Grandad was in the twilight of his
when he closed his eyes and opened his wrists wide.
What make a round fighter with a winning score
he need to throw the towel before the whistle blow?
Maybe I'll never know, but I inherited his soul
so the yet to show.
Is life so obscene that death's more
Or was an old auther to write his own closing scene?
Nothin stings like knowin that the woman who me this life is being eaten from the inside.
I thought we'd never shit right.
I wish I'd have viewed it once
before you done here.
That's two in one year I let leave here,
me, without shedding one single tear.
Either I'm one of the people left
or ya'll should stone me for even to steal breath.

They say "Shit, scrapper, you all by yourself ya?"
straight, I got a jail cell nature.
Been boxed up but never been settled in.
Then got tough, developing leather skin.
I to make that face that tells predators
it's better to reassess just who you bout to with.
I'm on one like the first kick of the beat.
Clear my lungs, spit on the street.
They me we got nothing to fear but fear itself
but I fear I have no human left.
Someday I'm wanna peel back these calluses
and really feel life again and that my challenge is.
I've been kickin and for so long
that when they throw me a rescue rope I'll be too weary to on
and see the light. So I through the tears
in the key of life, the way a ego might.

My joy left me ya'll.
She don't show her around these parts.
Every time she come she gets off,
so she distant.

If it weren't for me squintin he know the sun was out.
I hate every that come out of his fuckin mouth.
treat him special, don't know nothin bout him.
If they saw what his wife see wouldn't fuss about him.
He do shit right but rap and make babies
and need daddy at home consistent,
but rap keep on the road religious.
So in my two loves my soul is so conflicted.
My son came into world innocent
and he deserves that needs to live in it.
And this home I for him is broken,
I'm hopin his love for me never grow thin.
It hurts daddy to and to know when
you were cryin at the hospital I'm out tryin to a show.
I made a vow we'd never be broke again
and I'd never be a burden on friend.
So when sweated on my farewell stage,
when I've wrote my last hook in my rhyme book,
when I get the nod of approval from my family,
is the man I have to be.

Sometimes I feel I'm almost gone. You ever felt that way?
