Hi there! Thanks for listening to my song, "I Can Relate", from my debut album, "Welcome To Mars". I hope this song will mean something to you on a bad day or during a difficult time. I've heard from so many of you guys who've heard my music and have told me that you have a lot going on in your lives and "Music With Meaning" has meant something to you on a rough day. Quick story - I remember once I was in the middle of a difficult situation and someone came up to me at the worst possible time and said... "Oh yeah man... Sorry to hear about what you're going through, I know exactly how you feel." ??? I wanted to say... "No... You have no idea how I feel." Ya know? I certainly don't know what all is going on in your life or how you're feeling about the circumstances in front of you but consider this song a shoulder to lean on. I wrote it with the idea of "you" in mind... so it's yours. Hope you enjoy it ;) iTunes Link: http://www.MarsOnITunes.com MarsRaps Links: http://www.MarsRaps.com http://www.Twitter.com/MarsRaps http://www.Facebook.com/MarsRaps http://www.Dailybooth.com/MarsRaps Lyrics: I had a dream of being big 'till my dreams got smashed Cruisin' down East Street - suddenly I crashed I flew out the window - thrown over the dash As I shattered the glass - On my back as my whole life flashed Half dead - gashed right in the head Standing by the bed crying while my momma lay dead Listen to the words of a man who can feel your pain Life gets hard and I Can Relate The great debate in my mind is at this rate Can I keep straight walking through the valley of hate 'Cause love lost has thrown my off course - but hey In my darkest hour will I still choose to create If I believe then I can achieve - Conjugate I've got pain in my life but I choose today To go and take my flow and straight consecrate Funny when I look what tragedy has made You got pain in your heart? Ya - I Can Relate Feel you were doomed from the start? Ya - I Can Relate Wanna achieve but you've got nothing? I Can Relate Wanna succeed and to stop frontin'? I Can Relate You've been down on yourself lately I Can Relate On your knees and you're praying daily I Can Relate No help and you ain't equipped I Can Relate But you decide that you'll never quit I Can Relate I used to light ports on my electric stove Jumped in my Caviler and off I drove Destination unknown Think and ride - Drink and cried Tried to sync at the time with things I eyed as "successful" So much pain inside - It's hard to get up every time you're denied But still I ride - 'Till death and life collide I'm steady caught in the middle keepin' hope alive I know it's tough but I must survive So on I strive - 'Till I arrive To a place where it's safe and there's no more lies Where I can kick back, chill out, alright I'm cool to revive Ay yo, back to the booth where I rhyme and vibe Lime the light - sit and write 'Till I'm fresh like my all white Nikes I'mma leap like Mike Steady obeying this thirst like Sprite You got pain in your heart? Ya - I Can Relate Feel you were doomed from the start? Ya - I Can Relate Wanna achieve but you've got nothing? I Can Relate Wanna succeed and to stop frontin'? I Can Relate You've been down on yourself lately I Can Relate On your knees and you're praying daily I Can Relate No help and you ain't equipped I Can Relate But you decide that you'll never quit I Can Relate There ain't a thing in this world that you can't do All it takes is to keep at it 'till you break through 'Cause I believe in you If I can do it, you can do it too x2 And you 'gon make it just please stay true Steadfast grounded in who is you Don't worry 'bout them things that you can't control You've got your soul - You've got your time and a mind Sit down and write your goals Everything that you wanna achieve I encourage 'cause it worked for me And now I'm up in the top suite Sittin' in the big seat - Flowin' on the big beats Scheming how to take it even further than the big leagues I rap on the real 'cause I can relate No time for a silly rhyme - I'mma get me mine Reach for the stars and you'll do just fine Ay yo this Mars sayin' one more time I'm tryin to tell ya though You got pain in your heart? Ya - I Can Relate Feel you were doomed from the start? Ya - I Can Relate Wanna achieve but you've got nothing? I Can Relate Wanna succeed and to stop frontin'? I Can Relate You've been down on yourself lately I Can Relate On your knees and you're praying daily I Can Relate No help and you ain't equipped I Can Relate But you decide that you'll never quit I Can Relate
