The Vent Part 5

Today I'm going to lay back
And relax.
I'm tired how the world acts,
All I want to do is play some tracks.
Get lost in the lyrics and the drum slap.
Days like these I thank God for rap.
But I wish they would stop talking about racks on racks.
Because life is not about the paper you stack.
Paper is nice but it can't clean up the world's crap.
Talking about selling drugs and busting caps.
When we all know the thug life they ain't about that-Mario Perez
