They tell me life is short
In the blink of an eye we come and die.
Keep it in mind that life is war
Stay grounded, fly and soar
Always know what you fighting for.
Aging fast, gotta pave a path and go figure out what my life is for.
Quick-witted, and everyday I gotta switch lanes
Fuck race, no pigment,
I got thick skin, making big waves.
Positive being positive is my legacy.
Pray for me or make way for me
Because I’m setting out to go change the Earth and I just may.
My life is was I call it, and I call it successful.
Now everybody wanna eyeball it
Like «How the fuck he do that though?»
Take pride in your every action.
Everyday of my life is work
And they tell me that time is money
But only I know what that time is worth.
Even if the sky was falling down
Even if the sky was falling, I’m not falling down.
I stand tall through it all.
I’ve risked too much to just give up now.
I’m pushing on through
Sure as the tide rolls in at night.
I’ll still be here at the end of days screaming at the sky.
Let the fire consume and cleanse what’s before me.
Behold, I’ll build my empire before the ashes hit the ground.
