Been around and about
Still don't know what it's all about
Guess there ain't enough time to ever figure it out, so
I seek the bliss of every minute that time slows
It's rotten fruit, guess I'm reaping what I've sown
Couple taylor-mades under the rain
Gritting my teeth it ain't time to complain
Nah I blocked it, don't have to see the number again
Nah I washed it seeking out a brand new day
It's getting heavy tryna carry the weight
Boil it down to all the choices I've made
So I'm left with nothing to say
But I ain't been left speechless
Uh, I just have another battle of self
Measure up cos I come for the belt
Another story to tell
Knocking doors, ringing bells
But they never wanna know unless they know that you sell
I know 'em well
Before you know me know yourself
I got my life's work still piled on the shelf
F*ckin wasss
Life get in the way and time flash
Still on the money hunt, out for the cash
I believe
Tough times gunna make a man
It's all part of the plan now
Uh
Tread the wire so I don't look down
All part of the balancing act
Sometimes I stumble and I might fall but I pick myself up cos I ain't no fool
Skin torn by the thorn of the rose and I'm left with a scar for ever getting involved
But I guess that's the way that it goes
And we move up
Sometimes you need to see the light
Yeah more time it ain't as easy as that
But apply the pressure and you see us shine no doubt
Just to bounce back
Gradual defence and attack
I gotta lace tracks, make tracks and keep my people intact
I'm back into my business
Keep up, ain't got the fitness
Know my own and only need the lord as my witness
I gift this to the present moment and lift it
Cos things speeding up, gears shifting
And I don't wanna miss this
Sometimes it's getting twisted
But that ain't neither my concern or my interest
I'm in this
For the long haul, the long run, the whole ride
No quit no ejector it's real life
Be a shame to get caught slipping better hold tight
I've wondered where my mind's been at like the whole time
Yeah another one of those days and those nights
I take note and although I'm still numb
I believe
Tough times gunna make a man
It's all part of the plan now
Uh
Tread the wire so I don't look down
All part of the balancing act
Sometimes I stumble and I might fall but I pick myself up cos I ain't no fool
Skin torn by the thorn of the rose and I'm left with a scar for ever getting involved
But I guess that's the way that it goes
And we move up
Sometimes you need to see the light
