lirik lagu eazy-b - the power of the pen
[hook]
there’s power when i write
cause i write from the heart
there’s purpose in my life
i kept it real from the start
im honest with these lines
cause i can’t keep it in
i’m revealin my mind
that’s the power of the pen
[verse 1]
this means more to me than words on pages
this is more than a means of rocking stages
when i bleed for the cause and spill my thoughts
it’s more than a scheme to make me famous
i ain’t worried bout it
i ain’t worried if they know what my name is
i’m putting life changes over bank statements
making real music is what my aim is
yeah, we aiming high
the cash cow ain’t the bulls-eye
got my sweet tooth out the apple pie
got a booth so we eating good tonight
serving soul food from the bars i write
cause when the beat turns on i come alive
it’s a safe place to lose restraint
that allows the p-ssion of my soul to thrive
this my escape, this my oasis
in the rhyme and flow thats so contagious
that can ease the pain that life creates
and give me peace from being anxious
in this life
this antidote got me feeling painless
this my solace, i can’t explain it
but this my heart i can’t contain this
inside of me
so i fill my songs with so much truth
but they questioned my purpose in writing verses
like who cares bout the words if the beat is smooth
so i was on my pen with something to prove
but i heard my last tape and the words rang true
the music was alive and that’s when i knew
i could write from the heart and reap the fruit
[hook]
there’s power when i write
cause i write from the heart
there’s purpose in my life
i kept it real from the start
im honest with these lines
cause i can’t keep it in
i’m revealin my mind
that’s the power of the pen
[verse 2]
the tracks i write are more than music
i write these lines, its therapeutic
it’s more than me, it’s for the movement
me and the world, tryna make improvements
if they listen to me, then i got influence
yeah, thats why i do this
i’m over my sk!lls and tryna prove it
but i can look back and know that i been through it
and that’s why every song takes so much time
it ain’t the flow, wordplay, or punchlines
but when i pour my heart in a work of art
it’s a breathing image of precious life
that i can’t take for granted
or my purpose will vanish in demise
can’t saturate cause i’m unsigned
i only write with meaning of life
cause music’s how i cope with my introspection’
muiscs where i go when i face rejection
music is my zone when i’m retrospectin
music’s like a home when i need refreshment
and i found some peace
cause my mind impregnate with all these obsessions
they hard to get out, need a c-section
but i can trust the mic with my confession
i can be totally honest about all the pain
facade removed, forget the shame
i share my soul, ain’t saving face
this falls from my heart, not a fall from grace
i found some comfort in my happy place
and learned the power in the songs i make
there’s influence far greater than fame
i can make a difference ‘stead of making a name
[outro]
like man this is why i do all this
this is why i spend so much time writing all the verses
it’s for myself so i can grow in life and see where i been through
and it’s not to please other people
but it’s for other people so my influence can somehow change them
make a difference in their life
that’s what the power of the pen is to me
and that’s why i find it so important to write all these songs, you know
