Mach5's Notes
Start hook at 19
First verse starts 38 seconds
Second verse 1:55
Assume the stance bro
Why are your pants low
No money for a belt
Did you even have a chance bro
Daily struggle to stay safe and vertical
Will it be possible to ever reach my pinnacle
Back when I was 22, I wasnt hunting you
I rolled and patrolled, never was i judging you
bullet proof vest and a badge on my chest
Kinda clueless, how to do this, guess I'll just protect
Because when I was a kid, see all I ever did
Lend a hand to a man, as it was needed
Now imagine me, there's no bad in me
Joined the cavalry in the academy
Where I fought and clawed I was a warrior
One morning, I was sworn in as an officer
Po. lice.man, I keep the peace man
A frightening, glock 19, why is it called a piece man
Cloaked in the oath, I took it to the street
Sincerely Smiled at everyone I would meet
For patrol, they told me, get a crown vic
Assigned a zone I roamed until I found it
Dispatched to catch a violent criminal
World wind full of sin, this is cynical
Cynical so much sin it's cynical
Such a toll, it's barely liveable
Years later, now an investigator,
Petty thieves, deathly deeds, are second nature
I's smarter now, eyes are watered down
insane amounts of pain, thoughts turn darker now
I confess, cause It's probable I need a rest,
From all the thugs and the slugs, peacefully i arrest
Daily lies have plagued me, made me angry
Skepticism imprisoned the faith in my family
Feeling whipped, like a sniff of nitrous gas
Appliying pressure breaking my heart, that's whiplash
No dough, but I do know this is nuts,
Half truths about the cash you's get from dealing drugs
Feeling down and out, 20 sum years amount
Overwhelmed cause of all I had to surmount
Its paramount pension, but in the end in
I'm done battling Perps, now its depression
All this anxiety. I cant hide in me
So if I move on, then maybe I can finally
Find in me....my own inner bliss
Heres my badge and gun sir, I surrender this
Unpinned it all, turned away it was pivotal
After all I did reach my pinnacle.
My pinnacle, my pinnacle
I stayed strong. Reached my pinnacle
