Description:
Hello kiddies and welcome to another French Toast colab ......This one started off by me drooling over Stevie J
sweet beats .....The Guy is a genius with the hip hop stylee ......I had to spread the love over to Spitlogic who i knew would catch the vibe as well ....well he Wrote his verse in a couple minutes and a sweet hook to go with it,and if that wasnt already the icing on the cake he cut it up like a lumberjack on Christmas eve with the 1's and 2's soooooooooo here it is for your listening pleasure....the new one ....Life
Lyrics:
chorus
This is life
Some live it secluded
Some live it through music
While some would abuse it
The're some that refuse it
The family tree we are all included
And all with eventually loose it
life
some take it for granted
some live it and panic
Some just can't stand it
There times when you feel you at a disadvantage
Just keep your faith up, I know you can manage
Spitlogic
Every time I spit
Its like hoping that time permits
Live this life on the mark, Im not trying to miss
Though my aim isn't all that great
I maintain like atlas when I carry the weight
Have patience to wait
and maneuver like liquid
And pray that I'm gifted with the speech to lift kids to men
Lift eye to him
break the dam of hope, knowing I can swim
Where should I begin
The place where my eye ascends
Like the wings of a bird when I try the wind
Keep these words from the eyes of prying men
And stand fast against the lies and sin
And if I fail in this life I will try again
Whether on my high horse or the lion's den
Whether on the 1's and 2's or when I spit on this mic
Victory or defeat, Ill never give up this life
Dj French Toast
Life may seem mean stinkin pile of dreams
im gunna settle on the top like a batch of cream
Life’s so ironic like a game of craps
Always Pickn your self up by your busted bootstraps
Let the egotistical mind ease cause it’s a disease
Dreams fantasies falling like leaves off trees
Please consider these words part of your vocab
Guess you shoulda listened to spit and frenchy t on da colab
ain’t a thing funny so don’t ya dare laugh
Intertwined with the good stuff is always the bad
Yin and yang feel the breeze now your locked up in a cage
Never know what’s next you can never turn the page
Yesterday is a dream tomorrow don’t exist
right now is all ya got and I’m goin to insist
life is so demanding but it’s the little thangs that matter
reality is what you make it but like a mirror it can shatter
Hardware:
Spits stuff ...my stuff ...and Stevie J's stuff

Music is only as powerful as the listner makes it. From what you've said you've given it a lot of juice. Im glad this song can act as a testement to your life. Im glad so many here have found this song worthy of praise.
Thanks for the listen man. [ Reply to This ]
Love &mdash 10/30/07 - 03:06:01 AM
the saxophone on this - really lifts it. Very, very infectious beats/sounds throughout and both the rapping vocals are superb with great lyrics.
Excellent.
Cheers

Hey Len &mdash 10/30/07 - 07:39:29 PM
The beat really grabbed our souls on this one and I have to give 100% cred to spit for bringin it real with the outline of the song ......and breathing life into the song ...glad you had a listen and enjoyed man ! [ Reply to This ]
Needed This &mdash 10/30/07 - 09:20:46 AM
I just wrote an extensive comment about Micheal Wark's "Anvil" about individuals trying to keep debates about civilization and humanity, politics and struggle going without sliding into the vicious wars we're living through right now. Excellent tune, but... man, I really needed to hear this tune, Benny - it reenforces what I feel and believe about life and how we live. We're all individuals, and we're all trying our best to make it to the next moment without getting skinned by life. But...
Funny that which we put so much value on really doesn't mean so much in the end, and what we learn, feel and experience turns out to be real. Life can be brutal, but we create far more of this life we live in than we realize. Every word, every action... it all belongs to us alone, and with that influence our world, and onward and outward. I know, it's nothing new, but it's real and it's true. This piece has such a lust for life that it brought tears to my eyes - it's not sweetly optimistic nor blindly happy, but exhuberent and alive and confident borne of the scars of living that life.
You guys put together one hell of a piece of work. Bravo!!! [ Reply to This ]
very true &mdash 10/30/07 - 07:32:46 PM
Your comment on this jam means a lot to me. I can honestly say that the music imediately caught me the first time I heard it. I was actually nervous when frenchy asked me to work on it because without the lyrics this song has a strong vibe to it. I didn't wish to take away from it, but at the same time I had to let what I felt out.
Thanks for comming to listen and for the enlightning comment. It is always welcome and apprecaited. [ Reply to This ]
Indeed Spit &mdash 10/30/07 - 07:54:09 PM
Rik it means a great deal to me as well .....There is something so special about the awesome people on this website ....its made me create and think and grow ....You have no idea how much I realize the meaning in your comment and understand what you are saying ....Life is 100% what you make of it .....how you look at situations and how you react to each moment ......but ive even gone farther in my practices and meditations that what is "I" and where does it come from.. the thing called "I" is pure ego .....and im a rapper hehehe doesnt go so well with Zen practices but i go beyond Pure Zen ideas and take what I like from all mind sets .....and in the end my friend the meaning of life is only to create more of you... there isnt much more to it than making sure there is more humans or dogs or cats or fill in the blank ........Pretty bleak view but Im a realist with a overactive imagination ...: ) hehehe Its all good ! Thanx for the enlightenments and the good word my Bro ....be safe .... [ Reply to This ]

Laid back rap, always better than the hyper fast furious rap, good job [ Reply to This ]
Werd em up &mdash 10/30/07 - 08:02:46 PM
Of course .. &mdash 10/31/07 - 06:27:32 AM
.. excellent rapping from you both and a top notch
theme and message: your voices work well together.
I'm not by any means any authority
on this genre (or any for that matter) .. but I really
enjoy and admire alot of your work (and Spit's) as
well as a handful of other hip-hop rap MJers too.
Being a pretty new listener to this genre, while I
get a kick out of some 'speed of delivery changes' -
I can see that really wouldn't be appropriate to the
vibe of this one.
The laid back groove works really well with that
meandering jazzy sax and backing. Fine mix ...
I thought you perhaps could 'double up' at some
points ie. you both rap together the "this is my
life .." return after your section... would be
interesting to hear the voices together.
Thanks for sharing. [ Reply to This ]
Apb &mdash 10/31/07 - 07:35:47 PM
Hey so glad you had a listen ...you know doin the colab over the internet is an amazing ...AMAZAING thing we can do now I live in Phoenix Az and I think Spit lives in South Carolina ....but it really makes it hard on the production end of things ....I would have done a few things different myself if we were in the same room together but its so hard to communicate to each other how we want the song to go down ...your head on when you say we should have mixed up the hook vocals cause it sounds more like Im rappin on spits song than a colab ...but honestly I dont mind followin such a talented rapper as Spitlogic ......he defiantly has a gift ....plus I asked him to take it over vocally and he did a great job layin the spit down ....hey thanx alot for the deep comment and makin us step up our game ....I think I might redo some vocals and put it back up .....peace [ Reply to This ]
