lyrics

Mic check one two, this place is like a zoo /These people looking at me like man what you gon' do?/You can't spit fire when you're standing on a wire/Luckily I never tire man, I'm feeling brand new/I'm feelin' so fly I might as well be in the sky/And until the day I die I'll keep on playin' both sides/Some days I like folk more than rap, I won't lie/Or at the very least I guess I'd label it a tie/But then I hear a beat and I feel it in my bones/And when I start to rhyme it feels like I'm coming home/I'm always running out of time but when I get in my zone/I start tryin' to be the best that the world has ever known/I ain't out here on my own, I'm living in the spirit/I'm following the still small voice, can you hear it?/In the middle of the storm I will stay near it/So whenever death comes I will not fear it/Only thing I fear is the King/And the shame that will reign if I don't bring/My heart so that it can start changing/Cuz I ain't in the game for the fame thing/A lotta cats flow better/Doesn't mean they'll outlast me/I used to wanna be a trend setter/’Til everyone done passed me/Y'all are strivin' to be number one/But you're driving in the wrong lane/This ain't all about speed, son/I'm out here to play the long game/Cuz eternity's coming and where else you gonna run/When you're covering your eyes cuz you're staring at the Son/And He's pulled into the light everything you've ever done/Do you think you're gonna bribe Him by pulling out your ones?/Or pulling out your guns so that you can be a threat?/He already beat death so what did you expect?/His love has set me like a fetter you better believe/It's written in a letter for you and for me/And nobody's getting the better of He/So forget about your cheddar He's setting us free
