lirik lagu soulchef & marchitect - the riddle

hook: marchitect
first you crawl on four legs then two legs upright
and then you got a cane in the rain of the sunlight
three stages but we all live one life
i’m thankful everyday and hey i can’t get enough life
(x2)

verse 1: marchitect
you crawl before you walk, you babble before you talk
i came to age in delaware but i was born in new york
the second youngest sibling of five i love sports
i used to race my toy cars on the front porch
i got a little older took the bus to school
i got a little bad and thought the cuts was cool
in the summer hop your fence and bum rush your pool
i broke a lot of bones plus the rules
but these little lessons took me to the next stage
a life you could say that i was coming of age
the first chapter’s filling up the page
had a crush on k hub but that was in the fifth grade
used to love it when she would do her hair up in them two braids
never said a word i guess that i was too afraid
her summer was forever and it seemed it never end
when i lost the only mic i lost my first best friend

verse 2: marchitect
the next chapter’s about what happens after
you grow up and you’re looking for a path to follow
and mine was rap music
it chose me i didn’t really have to choose it
yeah, i went from demos at my momma’s
to traveling the globe and catching checks with the comma’s
but in the process i had to deal with the drama
it comes along with being grown and responsibilities, consequences of your actions
your time on a planet can get reduced like a fraction
i stay grounded can’t slip or lose traction
i get busy when it’s time for some action
i ran up outta house mid flames
it even burned up my records by rick james
but i’m happy to say, i could have another day
a five along fire could’ve went the other way

verse 3: marchitect
i wanna be like my dad visiting grandkids
retiring and laying back where the sand is
grey up in my beard, getting my kenny rogers on
knowing when to walk away like a kenny rogers song
if i get the time to, know that i’m inclined to
lend a helping hand so the loneliest can climb up
each one teach one, we can all be taught
knowing that my life ain’t about what i bought
it’s more about what i did, more about how i live
now i’m walking with a cane knowing that’s how it is
starting generations yeah and there after
they can turn life’s teardrops into laughter
my wife stuck by me, her hair got gray streaks
a long way from where my momma made me
but that’s in god’s hands it’s one big maybe
i look up to the sky when the ground gets shaky

outro: marchitect
yeah, i wanna take this time, to give a shoutout to the ones who came before me, to the ones that are here with me, to the ones that are gonna be after me, ya know what i’m saying, for sho, big shout to the homie soulchef, i think we did it with this passport thing man, taking it around the globe, and we out
