"Fresh After Death"
  by PoeticMindset


Title: Fresh After Death
Instrumental: All Good Things (Prod. VTZ)

Chorus: 00:16-00:35

I’ma stay fresh till the day of my death and then after
On that day it’s going to be like a natural disaster
In the newspapers my name will be plastered
Talking about how I lived the fast life but sadly death came faster
But such is the life of a young actor
Lights action we all pose for the camera
In hopes that our freshness will always live on in that kodak moment

Verse 1: 00:36-01:11

Life is a movie cause we all are actors
We wear the mask as we smile for the camera
They say a picture is worth a thousand words
Well then a hundred lies has now just been told
While the truth only the camera knows
It keeps your secrets in exchange for your soul
Now you're nothing more then a mannequin dressed in clothes
A puppet who knows when you see a camera to pose
You praise those who over you you gave control
So they tell you not to touch that remote control
So you don't in fear that there'd be no one left
To show you the new dress code if they were to go
Cause to be out of style is a sin that's unforgivable
You don't believe in the bible
Yet you worship the source though
Shit even the devil wears Prada
So I guess I gotta step my game up a little higher
Cause...

Chorus: 01:12-1:29

I’ma stay fresh till the day of my death and then after
On that day it’s going to be like a natural disaster
In the newspapers my name will be plastered
Talking about how I lived the fast life but sadly death came faster
But such is the life of a young actor
Who has played many roles in front of the camera
Cause Life is nothing more than an unrecorded motion picture

Verse 2: 01:30-02:04

They say your life is a movie so you should make it worth watching
Well I know that mines would have your heart pounding with suspense
Did he make it in the game at the end or did he just give in
Well I'm sorry I don't mean to spoil the end but I was born to win
And raised to believe that loosing was a sin
So I always tried to play the role of a good christian
In front of the lens is where most my time was spent
Played many roles but never made it past the audition
Guess GOD had a better role for me where I'd be the perfect casting
Now I'm the best Poet rapping
Lights flashing camera action
I'm on stage getting an award for my passion
People might think it's just a boys dream
But me and GOD both know it's something bound to happen
So...

Chorus: 2:05-2:24

I’ma stay fresh till the day of my death and then after
On that day it’s going to be like a natural disaster
In the newspapers my name will be plastered
Talking about how I lived the fast life but sadly death came faster
But such is the life of a young actor
Who has played many roles in front of the camera
Cause Life is nothing more than an un-recoreded emotion picture

Verse 3: 02:25-02:58

The same way the shadows can't outrun the sun
The same way your ass can't outrun a gun
Before you even played your cards fate has already won
Now death has come to claim the rest of your funds
All that paper you chased down is now all gone
You're just another failed actor who has reached the slums
You wish you could go back to where it all began
But sadly inside you know that you can't
You could no longer grasp that moment that you held golden
The only lights you see now is that of the sirens
Their is a big crowd and cameras flashing
The cops said that it was a crime of passion
You died trying to get back a little piece of your old life
You figured you'd rather die if you could no longer stay fly
I guess in the back of your mind you thought that

Chorus: 02:59-Fade Out

I’ma stay fresh till the day of my death and then after
On that day it’s going to be like a natural disaster
In the newspapers my name will be plastered
Talking about how I lived the fast life but sadly death came faster
But such is the life of a young actor
Lights action we all pose for the camera
In hopes that our freshness will always live on in that kodak moment
