WISE
MARU NARA Lyrics

I woke up washed up
I am starting another day feeling miserable and defeated.

Another day of an animal
I feel like I am in a constant state of survival mode.

Kicked out that door
I don't want to go through that experience again.

I don’t want that anymore
I am tired of constantly feeling defeated.

Boy lemme know
Tell me if you know something about how to break from this cycle.

If you know something about road to the east
If you know a way out of this situation.

Walking on y’all wires at least
Trying to make it through life in a precarious, but hopeful, way.

Pack of thunder bars on those beats
Creating powerful music to express my emotions and thoughts.

Please
Asking for someone to please pay attention to what I have to say.

Listen to that closely trynna read up on my puzzle
I am trying to communicate through my music and want people to understand me.

Cold dust on the thousand muscles
Feeling tired and worn out from the struggle.

Metal beast rumbles
The sound of my music is powerful and has an impact.

Its my power you cannot have it
I will not let anybody take away the power of my music.

Ninjas skills got potentials
I have talent and potential that people should recognize.

I’m alive fool
I am still here and fighting despite the difficulties.

They thinking that I’m trynna be the legend
People might misunderstand my motivations for making music.

I saw the eye of the sun
I have experienced something profound and transformative.

Through the leaves and blunts
Observing the world and contemplating it while smoking marijuana.

Forest spirit comes
Finding a sense of connection with nature and spirituality.

Smell that cold wind then run
Feeling the chill of the wind and being motivated to take action.

Through the woods to the mud
Navigating through challenging situations and difficulties.

Flowers crackin up the concrete
Finding beauty and hope in unexpected places.

Palms quickly rip
Playing drums with intensity and passion.

Arm hits on the drums
Playing the drums and making music with energy and force.

Pala I beg of you
Addressing a friend or collaborator.

Look at all deez
Check out what I am doing and creating.

Brother got steez
I have style and flair in my music.

Sharpen my weapons up
Refining and improving my music and skills.

You know the deal
You understand what I am trying to do and create in my music.

Still on them bars
Continuing to create and make music.

Made of steel
My music is strong and enduring.

Breakin your hearts brains and shields
My music has an impact on people and can provoke powerful emotions and thoughts.

Instead of them shots drugs and pills
Encouraging people to listen to music as an alternative to harmful coping mechanisms.

How is that feels?
Asking people to consider how music can be a healthier outlet for emotions.

shit you alright, man?
Asking someone if they are okay and how they are doing.

Guess who gonna strike like lightnings
Indicating that I have something powerful and impactful coming.

Stuck up in that cold mess
Feeling trapped in a difficult and challenging situation.

Its just me myself and I
I am alone in this struggle and have to rely on my own strength.

Puppet pantomimes around us
Feeling like people are just going through the motions and not living authentically.

Is a play of biggest size
This struggle and challenge is immense and difficult to overcome.

Be wise
Encouraging people to be smart and make good decisions.

I tell you
I am offering this advice and wisdom from my own experiences.

You tell them
Encouraging someone else to share this message and advice with others.

Not quite
I am not sure that people will actually listen and follow this advice.

Not nice, but be wise
Acknowledging that life is difficult and sometimes unpleasant, but still urging people to be smart and make good decisions.
