Lyrics
(Yeah yeah) (Uh) He was just a Young brotha with a dream, brighter than a light beam His mind couldn't ever find peace It might seem that his eyes might gleam It's deep, lookin' at least to find feet To be specific he was five-foot three He aimed for the stars, man, he tried like me A Pisces, so despite the slight greed There was just a couple of things to fine-tweak He hit the road with Nikes, a white tee The jacket that he wore was torn but quite sheek Enticed by the littlest sight of slight peace Depression was a terrible fight, he tried beat Distorted, he was never advised to ride streets To go down, a perilous life he quite leads Besides, he was feelin' confined and quite weak As he marched on a treacherous path to find peace Smiles can deceive Smiles on the face of a thief Smiles on the face of a cheat We only believe what we see, we only believe what we see Smiles can deceive Smiles on the face of a thief Smiles on the face of a cheat We only believe what we see, we only believe what we see Smiles can deceive So he grew tired of never havin' it all So he started gamblin', by the pick of the draw He was winnin', but just a beginner, he wasn't sure And even though it wasn't apparent, there was a clause Jealous of the others, he figured he wanted more Never one to settle so then he built a rapport With some brothers who were shady, who never followed the law Of course it was trouble, but that's the trouble reward He was floored, layin' his head on a bed of thorns It was raw, a bretha that never weathered a storm He was worn, he borrowed way more than he could afford He was torn, they only were givin' him 'til the morn It was dawn! He's sittin' and wishin' he wasn't born His temperament was severed, and now he dreaded the war The resentment he was feelin' was never met with remorse So many thoughts, now he's wishin' he would've paused Smiles can deceive Smiles on the face of a thief Smiles on the face of a cheat We only believe what we see, we only believe what we see Smiles can deceive Smiles on the face of a thief Smiles on the face of a cheat We only believe what we see, we only believe what we see Smiles can deceive He never found what he was seekin', he was deep in the dark It was demeanin', at least he had the P's in his palm He was fightin' through the feelin' he was keepin' it calm Never religious, but shivers had him readin' his Psalms Never revealin', you can see serene in his stance When the Devil wanna boogie, don't be eager to dance He's needin' a chance, it's seemin' that the demons'll chant Defeatin' his heart, wishin' that the feelings'll pa** He was leavin' in the evening, he was deep in a trance Knee-deep and he was feelin' afar, he was feelin' it hard It was seemin' that the feelings'll last, so through the seasons he was peelin' apart He was feelin' it hard, never rattled but the pressure was high Hard nights, dark types never had the advice Dark skies seem to hover over his mind, my heart cried Because he took his own life Rest in peace, Hugh
