Rhyme Or Reason: Elzhi - The Science

Elzhi - The Science (verse 2)
From the album "The Preface"

I'm livin fast, but cash is movin slow in motion
I'm goin through ups and downs like I'm roller coastin
Ridin, hidin feelings behind a wide grin
I almost died inside when I couldn't provide ends
Meet, wish I could say life's been sweet
In street drama, the thermometer blends heat
Heat, I'm tryin to find a way, depression is grew high
I search for a blue sky, but I'm seein signs of gray
I got a line I say, if I come with two and combine a trey
Add a fourth, I watch how these words on a pad'll morph into a rhyme
This might get me out the sewer grime
Many get stuck, few'll climb
They pursue a crime because my city's so poor
My nigga Jay got killed robbin his video store
Tryin to provide for his seed
Seed he felt his world cavin in, before the day that he bleed
And indeed, greed will fuck your mind if you give it brain
Or give it head, that's one the same
As long as blood's runnin through my hundred veins
It'll come together whether the weather is sun or rain
