[Chorus]

I'll be doin' alright. I'll be doin' ok

And as long as I can live to see another day

I'll be doin alright. I'll be doin ok



[SOS]

Back in the sixteenth century ... way way back in the day

Nostradamus predicted the end of the world would be on May

5th... 1999 and I don't know how

But as I'm writing this that's only one day from right now

What the fuck! I pull up to Shell in my truck

Look up, "nah... Earth ain't about to erupt"

Open my door, get up, slam it shut, "Marv, what up

Let me get a bag of ice and a stack of plastic cups"

For a minute we chat 'bout life and all o that

then we dap. "Check you out tomorrow night, I'll be back"

Grab a beadie and light it, turn the key and start driving

back off into the night and then I start to get frightened

thinking "Damn! My whole life I was just a dreamer

I never got to put on a show in a packed arena

I wanted to go on Rap City and act witty

but all I ever did was put up with hoes who act shitty

What a wack pity! Was I choosin a road

that didn't get me there in time and now we losin our globe?

Hold up I'm losin control. Think realistically on it

What could fuck up a planet in one day without warning?

And even if the world does end and I can be mad at guys

cause life coulda been much worse. At least I'm satisfied

At least my dad's alive married to my mother

I have a sister and friends that I could call my brothers

At least I have life. Some people, their life was stolen

Set up for a crime and behind bars is where they hold em

We got kids killin kids cause Earth is cold

Women using abortions as a form of birth control

It hurts the soul and leaves a scar on your conscience

but it's a blessing that I made it through this nonsense

So even if this will be my last night

at least when it's over I'll be doin alright...



[DEACON THE VILLAIN]

Back in the 16th century, way way back in the day

nostradamous predicted the world would be on may

5th, 99, tree years later and change

the World Trades frame got struck by planes

looking like God unleashed his fury and rained flames

exchanged pain for how America came to fame

cluthing my brain, my sense of security changed

usually confidence was pure in me, now fear in my veins

said "any of this shit could brang nuclear weapons

...any of this shit could end at any second"

if the Commander in Chief couldn't insure our protection

that's no more additions to my memory's collection

missing me and my girls matrimonial connection

no child and videotapin' her first steppings

or growing old and teaching grandchildren lifes lessons

but thankfully I got saved during them church sessions

so I thank God for earth's blessings... health

not alot of wealth, but alot of peace within my self

not a whole lot of forgotten pieces upon the shelf

disclipline from loving parents, though they raised me

by the belt

when I was young, I was wild

(life) took it for granted

(nights) living outlandish

(christ) hope he could stand it

now I do right.. wherever I can manage

the devil was eating me alive but I climbed out of that sandwich

now possibly on the verge of having everything vanish

feeling as if I didn't do anything as I planned it

like I was trying to live my life right, but somebody panned it

but I still had love, when down helping hands lifted

me up, outta the mud, outta the muck

and outta the dark and attitude when I didn't give a fuck

from them days in the park, alone, drinking gin by the cup

through an exitless maze, wandering and constantly stuck

the blessings were always there, I just chose to ignore them

shit started getting sweeter when I learned to explore them

wasn't selfish with them, trying to stretch and contort them

and didn't let the world get to them first and distort them

so as I.. kick back and ponder on armeggedon

and I... spit raps about where my life could've been headin'

I.. admit that.. I do have a wonderful life

so if this night was my last, i'll be doin' alright
