Ayo Pac died didn't cry didn't know him that well Biggie died, Big L and Big Pun died as well Left eye and Aaliyah now you know the theme Wasn't till I lost some people close to me That got to me emotionally But honestly I openly, never shed a tear Thinking back to '06 and thanking God I'm still here Couldn't wallow in my sorrow while my hope remained sure Being absent from the body means present with the Lord His presence is my joy My faith is still entact even after impact when airbags ain't deploy Walked out with just some minor cuts I gotta thank the Lord Could've died still alive car was totally destroyed It couldn't be restored but in the end no remorse I got this gift that's why I rap Half of y'all just making noise and ya'll still see the profit But money ain't the object It's a byproduct of the process, but I digress I'm off it, I promise, y'all don't want it with God Bearing witness to the Trinity I'm boasting in the Cross Hold myself in low regard I could never be a star In the Light, of the Son I'm eclipsed au revoir Sometimes I drop gems see 'em shining from afar Sometimes I drop gyms see I'm tryna raise the bar The weight is on my shoulders I can drop or I can squat When I'm down on bended knees I know I got me a spot boy I'm giving this everything that I got boy No Curry on it but I've been seasoned a lot boy I stir the pot, let it Harden when it's hot It's a cold world better guard your heart they taking shots boy Blaow! You take a shot to the chest get hollow without the vest somebody call EMS Clean the mess keep compressing, unless you got that righteousness protecting Salvation is like, Mitchell and Ness A quality investment for protecting the neck And the dome leaving home I be stepping correct And I got the whole set, if you tryna collect It's a package deal hit me if you tryna connect I got the plug, my purpose is reversing the curse Bringing the Light into the dark, I'm affirming the search Serving the church, Eye in the sky searching the earth Looking for hearts with full commitment while affirming His work, wait Does it make me a hypocrite if I slip a bit Does being Christian mean being perfect and innocent 'Cause everyday I struggle with giving into sin But the Holy Spirit reminding me what His mission is The blood of Christ covers every blemish And coming to my defenses is God the Father in Heaven Whole squad battled tested Now tell me who can harm me when I'm walking with an army you thought I needed a weapon huh For His honor, I solemnly swear, tell the truth and nothing but it Always keep it a hunnit Watch the people I run with, Caesar had Brutus And Jesus had Judas man what am I to do I gotta Love my enemies, gotta love my enemies Gotta love the people tryna drain me of my energy Love 'em like we friends, I know they can't stand it Look I'm tryna be a stand up guy Galifianakis I'm on that beard gang My lady love it now she wanna touch the beard mane It's kinda weird but ay Back to this music thang I wonder what this year will bring 'Cause I've been working on this music for some years mayne Lord knows I want more fans More than having more fans I wanna follow in the Lord's plan All I need is the support, forget about awards Just a solid foundation with a floor plan I do this outta love for the Lord Love for the sport I do it for the souls but, love was the source My steps is in line but if love ain't the driving force I'm stuck to the floor If you got a second hear me out It's worth a listen I don't like to draw attention but the world's about to hear me now So help me God, I'm going ape King Kong tryna put the King on giving ya'll these monkey bars

Intro: Lessons in life Lessons in life, lessons on lessons in life Some lessons you like, some lessons you fight I'm giving you lessons in life... Lessons in life Lessons in life, lessons on lessons in life Some lessons you like, some lessons you fight I'm giving you lessons in life... Life is short Do it right, do it right That's for sure Good advice, good advice Life is short Counting seconds, counting seconds I'd rather count the blessings What's life without the lessons Verse 1: They say life is short you on a vapor trail, don't blow it, uhh (don't blow it) You get one shot if you can bank it in go for it Me I'm banking mine on that faith He gon' carry me with that grace Watch me break the glass on that backboard when I take flight with no concords hey (word) And that's word to God To bring a word to ya'll I need the Word of God That's why I gotta dig deeper than a firm massage I ain't scurred at all but I swear to God I'll hurt somebody...(talk to 'em) The truth can hurt when you first hear it Worst feeling's that hurt feeling but it's worth hearing for the hurt to heal Let's keep it real (one hunnit) A good friend of mine went through depression But she's a Christian, which begs the question If God's on your side then why you stressing Now, how she s'posed to feel How you cope when you broken and hope to heal When the ones who you know don't know for real And the rest of the world don't know the deal Every eye can see we in dire need We turn a blind eye you see the irony I'd rather talk about what's underlying 'stead of lying to myself like it don't apply to me Letting go of the pride in me Nothing left but a slice of humble pie inside of me Now I see looking back on my life No gripes I've been blessed by the lessons, fine with me Hook: I get by with all of these blessings man Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life I guess God providing these lesson plans When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Man! Verse 2: I heard...you only live once make the worst of it and live reckless (go crazy) You try to live for tomorrow to reverse the trend they don't get it Man we be living for the same old things Tryna chase after the same old dreams Get money get money it's the same old cream Tryna add croutons to the same old greens I'm-a say low key You know ya boy got high hopes Everybody wanna leave on a high note When our eyes close Do or die you decide live life in the fast lane or drive slow l live my life for the gospel Been around where the crowds get hostile But my God He can do the impossible When He reigns get a poncho (Whoo) Let me take a breather Can't move too slow can't rush, either Best things in life you gotta wait on 'em Pray on 'em, stay on 'em I stay on it That's why I had to write this song ain't finish till late morning I stay yawning but it's still worth it Prayed on it Feels perfect when it's His purpose, on purpose This ain't happen on accident No happenstance not left to chance Things go awry even the best of plans Even the best of plans still left to chance So take what's left make the best of that God's lesson plans, lessons for life Hope these lessons be blessing your life, forreal Hook: I get by with all of these blessings man Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life I guess God providing these lesson plans When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) When I look at my life (when I look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Take a look at my life (take a look at my life) Man!

What you dreaming for? Do you know what you sleeping on? What you dreaming 'bout? 'Bout time you bring it out What you dreaming for? Do you know what you sleeping on? What you dreaming 'bout? 'Bout time you bring it out I was down in the basement, going through som'n new Had to microphone check (one two one two) Going line by line till I'm out my mind Run it back once more then it's 'bout that time Step to the mic, little bit of steez with a little bit of light On a little bit of sleep from the past night Had to write till I had it right Write a couple songs right up to the the dawn Freestyle with my cousin Jo Meanwhile my youngest bro With a beast sound laid beats down I'm tryna feast now with that hunger flow I'd get one beat, then a couple of beats But pretty soon two beats wa'n't enough for me When it was up to me, I'd make my own Bedroom studio in my zone A relative unknown Friends and relatives wanna know Rap full time man I dunno Tried to let it go I was this close In the end though I couldn't hang it up So I gave it up, to the One who created us And I let Him change it up Hear me now and the sound seems great But I can't make it all about me that's dangerous I need space No audience just ambience Let the beat play Now give me a clean slate and watch me create From catastrophe to a masterpiece if you've seen one One time for the dreamers' theme song Won't find no dream worth sleeping on, nah They say life is but a dream, whoa Somebody tell me what it means, yeah Am I rolling gently down this stream, no I'm-a find a different route I feel like I'm missing out I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams I'm a one man wolf pack getting no sleep Can't count backwards ain't no sheep But I'm in the pasture that's with the Master That good shepherd no bo beep No sheets in my notepad If I thought about it I wrote that If I wrote that I recorded that and performed that And I only fumble when I drop tracks Feel the pressure when I drop back like a quarterback I'm slinging bars I'm Sammy Baugh My Skins fans they all on that I got big plans we all got that but some fall back to reality Truth is behind all that we all dream for the simplest reasons I had dreams of being a husband, now dreams of being a daddy Got my lady make some babies I'm-a have a nice little family yeah I'm a grown man I'm my own man I'm a soul man Got a old soul like a old man In a rocking chair tryna hold hands My old lady got slow jams Soul playing for the whole fam Grandkids my own clan And I feel right at home man Time don't for wait for no man or wo-man Better go then If you got a dream say oh yeah, oh yeah They say life is but a dream, whoa Somebody tell me what it means, yeah Am I rolling gently down this stream, no I'm-a find a different route I feel like I'm missing out I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams I'll be living out my dreams, dreams, dreams I'll be living out my dreams, dreams, dreams I'll be living out my dreams, dreams, dreams I'll be living out my dreams, dreams, dreams I'll be living out my dreams, dreams, dreams I'll be living out my dreams, dreams, dreams I'll be living out my dreams, dreams, dreams I'll be living out my dreams, dreams, dreams They say life is a but a dream I'll tell you what it means Gotta live it out, while we rolling gently down this stream I'm tryna figure out, all these pieces right in front of me But I can't sit this out, something I can't live without Dreams

Somebody tell the devil yo my soul is not for sale Not for Baal Watch America's idols without the veil God forbid, if I ever do a bid, go to jail Even worse, go to hell, then my mission was a fail And failure's not an option Pardon the cliche it's just that middle school mantra That Kenmoor doctrine PG get it poppin' I'm-a rep it till the coffin Maryland been a problem we gave you Wale & Logic I promise it's nothing personal, hip hop is versatile Rapping is universal in fact, it's been commercial too A whole slew of commercials and guest spots in movies and television no sign of a rest stop We infiltrating the culture, ain't no medium safe Feel like we vultures preying before the dinner plate What's at stake, couple spins couple ends Couple checks coming in couple zeroes on the end And so it begins, it wasn't always 'bout the money Somewhere along the line the starving artist got hungry Swallowed his own pride and started feeding his ego Passion wasn't enough to sustain him he needed greens too Man can't live off of bread alone But he gotta do something when there's no bread at home Families can't eat the praise Sometimes it's simple as that, to make a living yo we gotta paid Of course, who wouldn't want the crowd shouting their name Who hasn't sought the opportunity to rock on a stage But ask yourself, do I really know the cost of the fame Time and again, I be tryna weigh the cost of this thang Disdain, for the wack ones, respect for the real Guard myself against the ones with true motives concealed They talking illuminati I'm talking illumination Eliminating conspiracy theory imaginations Illuminating the dark moving Through the night we respond To the Light like a moth being drawn to it And I ain't tryna draw attention to myself Draw the line between humility and pride but my pen is felt Lord please forgive the selfish ambition When I'm driving down the road to perdition, take the wheel Hold me accountable, for every bar Every word every hook every verse every song Told myself I wouldn't cry unless I'm crying out to God... Nowadays tears rarely ever fall Rappers getting employed very few be on they jobs If you ain't leaving your mark what good is having it all A blueprint for the gift and the curse, that's the purpose It's more than just a gift with the perks, this is my service Just hope the Master's pleased when He looks upon His servant Send the serpent crawling back to the furnace this ain't for purchase
