Fall or Fly Pt. 2 Video (MV)

My whole life changed up

For two whole years I thought God was tryna play us
Really he was sending signs telling me to wake up

You ain't around the right people
You ain't doing the right things
How you think Ima let you win and you ain't made a change

But let's rewind the story I'll tell you how just how it started
My flow was getting crazy I'm ready to be the topic, of the rap game I had XXL dreams

The freshest of the freshman way sharper than any marksmen
Built my own team, JoeLyric he standing tall
Strategizing 24/7 so I won't fall

Fell over myself too many times
Stumbled, too many lines
Tryna be a force in this rap game

Tried to juggle it all did it everything by myself
Ain't have the funds for shit so I was locked inside a drought

Hit the streets and almost start getting it
But didn't go thru
My conscience wouldn't let me live wit it

So back to square one
I'm f*cking broke
My whole team
Yea they broke

Some of em just ain't have the drive and Apex ain't for jokes

Slipping in depression then Yonna died
Awww lawd now I can feel the tears falling down my eyes

Locked in wit passive depression ain't know how to grieve
When your life is falling in darkness you find it hard to see

I thought I hit rock bottom but I barely scratched the surface
2017 gave me impression I was worthless

Working a 9-5 to maintain and survive
But didn't feel a need cause inside I have died

My pipe dream getting thinner
The question of will I be another failed rapper
No legacy to remember

Statistic was haunting me waking me out of my sleep
Around the time abel hit me bout a move so we linked
Down south like a coke connect
The plan seemed obvi

If killing these beats ain't work I just might've caught a body

Can't Stop Gotta It
Mixtape was unfinished
Contemplated life or death
Who would suffer my remembrance

Demons talked to me all the time on a daily
Voices in back of my cerebellum drove me crazy

All my plans still failing
Somehow I'm still trying
Finished the tape regardless of who streaming or who buying

Marketing backfired
Plans they backfired
Couldn't call on no one
Disconnected my landline

Reflections of Tupac
Just me against the world
But I'm thankful for the struggle
Hard times made me thorough

When I said I ain't giving up
Things start looking up
In the stu already
Ideas was cooking up

I thought JoeLyric was dying he was only evolving
Now the posing question when I get my wings I'm done falling

Like an avalanche now I'm rising up just like a stock
Around the time I spent my days and my nights round Congress Park, I had plans

Added Sid to the team lil brother got locked up
But out the next day no controversy can stop us

Bullets came from cross the street when I was in dead center
Barely missed my head I feel blessed to be still living

Divine intervention talked to me that was the wake up
Everybody meant for something whether it was books or lay up

Way under my greatness I was living life basic
That's just how the city is it's hard to fight the germs contagious

My life was in containment, life sentence from the city nobody wanna hear my plea Before judging at my arraignment

Switching up my cadence Beat killer to an A-List
Evolved to just An Alias gave me hope I would make it

That's really my name my character
My lane
Was easy to see like tallest mountain same place that I changed

Took a leap of faith just praying the wind a catch me
Pouring out my truth hoping all you people accept me

If I fall wit all my flaws I'm hoping you resurrect me
Talking to my Grama she praying the Lord bless me

Seen crazy things and it left me traumatized
Did crazy things still a saint in mamas eyes
I hated me at the bottom I'm loving me as I rise
Devil at my door but I'll never let em inside

I'll take the second chance and I'll head back to the sky
And take the leap of faith forever cause it's Fall or Fly
