Chasin all my enemies cuz they know me too well It’s hard to be free when you tryna escape youself Trippin’ thru these tunnels like I’m tryna find my hell Really juss slippin’, when I think I’m thru I fell
Chin up, ass out don’t tell me I’m not pretty Shoulders back, cock tucked, tryna be a bitty- You know it workin too cuz these bitches thrown a fitty Thas why you gotta ‘pproach a girl like me, wid some dignity
Holding onto ego, avoid death at all costs Lettin go of miho, feelin like I’m at a loss So much left to be though, don’t pussy out now boss World in your hands, now make plans, time to get lost
Givin up on pretense, I’m out here straight shootin’ Livin bright, holdin tight, feelin like I’m not improvin’ Think you know who I am? Don’t know half the abusin I been bruisin’ and losin’, y’all confusin’ the movement
Locked up all my ties with the dark side, I was young Cast my demons down, held out, thought they’d never come - Back. Made em hide deep inside, cast my tongue In concrete pillars so strong lost the one - I thought I’d become, findin love, learnin what I fought to free from, just trusted my beliefs If I knew who I’d be when the light cast on me I’d drop dead in my tracks, stop tryina be free - I was
(I was) destined - to do - great things - they lied Thought I’d - get through - kept tryin - to fly Jump off - these buildings - look at - the sky Askin - maself - why I fight - to die I was
Destined - to do - great things - they tried Thought they’d - get through - kept tryin - to fly Jump off - these buildings - look at - the sky Askin - yoself - why you fight - to try
Holdin on, never lettin go - Of the dreams that we thought we would never know Took a leap of faith, thought I’d better grow - By way of plunge into the depths below
Body impact first, mind after that - Into pieces soul burst, around the world I was cast Thought life was lost - didn’t know what to ask - To get me back to the place I collapsed
When you breakin through, prepare for hardship Purpose in adversity is what this really is Everything lines up and it all just fits, Content in turmoil cuz it's how we connect
The pieces of the puzzles of our life’s story The weakest survive others, outstrive worry Thought we was our best selves, we out here killin - Cuz the enemies we chasin is self, we tha villain (I thought I’d)-
I thought I’d bee-come, findin love, learnin what I fought to be from, tryna trust, in my gut didn’t choose this life, I just tagged along The journey unfolded, I just sang my songs
Tried to be complete, Tried to push my means Thought I was doing right, just trusted my beliefs If I knew who I’d be when the light cast on me I’d drop dead in my tracks stop tryna be free I was
Ran out of space for words: (Chorus var. x2)
If you never give up, who knows where you’ll go next Everything that you chase for, there’s no time to rest You must push yourself nobody else cares but you So let’s make the best futures by learning to pursue Dreams made from ambition, our mission statement’s clear Out with the hatred, indecisions and fear In with the happiness, contentment and trust Cuz in this life you are a ghost made of love But what was the end if there was no means to begin Making friends and conquering challenges for betterment Overcome your obstacles, adversity and hardship Cuz if we’re Gods it’d be lame starting at the end Chasing our finish lines in order to bring Positive change on the world we’re within So don't stop being yourself and fighting for truth I'll be by your side, together we will do it.
