lyrics

I was fallin’ in time
Days waste away, when I'm lost in the grind
Now Imma follow the signs
Cuz the world won’t wait, won’t wait

As I’m working on this album, tryin’ to process my thoughts
Stressing on the outcome, thinking if I got
Too many battle tracks tryin’ to gratify myself
The homie said, every track’s a battle in itself
Gotta free the lies as I’m travelling this route
I realize, everyday I’m battling my doubts
Tryin’ to get ‘em out
But now that I recognize, sometimes
Your enemy’s your adversary tryin’ to help you out
I train hard to fight, start to write
Deep inside, ignite like sparks at night
And my shadow archetype, I dance with it when I…
Spar with mics, it’s dark and light
And when I’m livin’ in these parts of life
That seem like bars of life
I breathe these bars to life
And remember each scar is right
Of passageway, through the cave
Truth is the harshest light

(Chorus)
No longer fallin’ in time
Blaze my own way now I’m back on the grind
The Universe provides, imma follow the signs
Cuz the world won’t wait, won’t wait

If it wasn’t for the pain, I wouldn’t have bars like this
If not for the dark, couldn’t see stars like this
If not the game, couldn’t play cards like this
And I couldn’t have strength without scars like this
For this life I was given, gotta grind like this
When my minds vision and heart combine like this
I find that there’s never been a better time like this
And I’m reminded by my tattoo to shine like this
With my ability to act, trailblazin’ at night
From underground with the sound, vibration and light
Now I find my place in this life
As I shed rays on the dark phase in the maze of this life
With a vision that stays in my sight
With courage, cuz every day’s a battle and I’m facin’ the fight
Now words is my weapon in the days that I write
To ignite minds at night, blazin’ the mic

(Chorus)
Gotta get my mind right
