ll i ever seem to feel is frustration

adjacent to the dream that i'm chasing

facing the fact that i'm not that dope

self doubt, selling out, trading in my hope
 for negative mindsets,
the mic gets trashed
 and I get smashed, forget to write tracks

my raps don't catch, the mic gets axed

next time maybe I should focus on the cash

procrastinate and become a hater

make up excuses why I am a failure

all of the time I said i'd do it later
I
should've been in touch with the main motivator

wait a minute, fates a litte bit of a bitch

but which situation would you currently switch?

pick up the pieces i've thrown away

sitting at home on my own today

is as good a time as any to get it back together

stop reacting, instead start planning my actions

my passion is music, so it's about fucking time I used it 
the truth is, dedication is fleeting

and often I feel like i'm under achieving

competing in the bogus hocus pocus about who's the dopest

then I remember that I wrote this and my hope is reignited

cos I might just have the fight inside I idolised

revitalised, I decide to write a rhyme

inspired by the idea that my ears might clear

and the rhythm right here might make the crowd cheer



this is your life, 
it's my life

so live it now,

this is your life, 
you only get one life

so step into the spotlight



I sit listenin, still driftin, siftin 
still on a mission to deliver my vision

but i'm blind, need a guide to wake me

break me from the shackles, shake me up
t
ake me on a ride to get the ball rollin'

cos the fire inside has been stolen

now i'm pedalling this cycle of self denial

the more I keep riding the more I get tired
 up uninspired,
somebody tell me why, 
is it because I ain't done *** with my life?

a wise man heard this, he said "the purpose of life is a life of purpose"
and I thought 'maybe that's why I felt worthless'
i'd make it work if i persevered
through the fear and the apathy

now i've got a strategy to reach in the cavity, break out of the gravity

that'll be the day that I deliver on my dreams

now free to be what I always wanted to be

dismissing the resistance and shifting positions

now i'm in the mix it's just a matter of persistence

I know i'll go the distance,

driven by the wisdom of those who are with this
t
his is the path for greatness to grow

the dizzying highs to the perilous lows

you only get one shot at living and greatness ain't given

on a platter, as a matter of fact

you gotta shatter the barriers that are holding you back

i've got a plan of attack

and this track is a testament to that




this is your life, 
it's my life

so live it now,
this is your life,

you only get one life

so step into the spotlight
