lyrics
Chorus:
My world is moving so fast right now
I've learned from my past and I'm livin' right now
If I wrote this song then, how would it sound right now
If I was wrong then, how could I be right now
I've seen the world through a lion's eyes
I stand by the light but it looks like the fire died
The drill is mind over matter like zion I
Don't fall behind, cause time is just flyin by
But before you move, ask yourself why am I
living in this condition and why cant i apply
what I believe and you wont just require my assistance
I know cause I know I have tried
For the last couple years now, give or take a few
my blind mindset caused my character to break in two
so now it's time to take it to a higher degree
I look into the mirror and I keep trying to see
some evidence of the person I aspire to be
so I close my eyes and I see the fire in me
His reflection in my design since the day I was born
I keep that in mind as I make my way through the storm
Chorus
My mind is fully loaded, I hold it steady and aim
at the souls who are waiting and are ready for change
Everybody with something to say, too many to name
and at the leaders, but sadly barely any remain
So I noted that in rhyme form, told myself its time for
music with the message through the mic, my divine sword
Right now I'm not where I usually stand
I'm moving towards the right now, and do what I can
with what I have, but I really wish I knew in advance
Some try to ruin my plans but I'm not losing my chance
to represent that spiritual, and supply a visual
lyrically invincible relaying God's principles
I keep striving and focus on the long-term
and move forward, when so many took a wrong turn
A disgrace to my name so I changed my lifestyle
If I had only known then what I know right now
Chorus
