[Hook]

I need two hunned cash in a dash

I don't know where it's coming from

But I'm finna go get it

Life is a marathon

I don't know sprinting

I need a Taste of success

[Verse 1: CHRIS WISE]

F that, I need the whole buffet

Where I come from is a very special place

1700 man, treat it like pearly gates

It's been 25 years I gotta go now

See the continent (aye)

See New Zealand

Buy some real estate

Save sumn for the children

Proms is expensive

Graduation limos

And I'm too grown to be living in limbo

So I'm all in

10 on Black on me

But this ain't roulette

I'm executing strategy

Name another artist who can function as the GM

WISDOM the C-E-O

Spitting the G-E-ms

I got my MBA

We in the NBA

I got a hunch that my bro gon' be commissioner

Adam Silver say he f**n with the movement

Spreading peace and love and straight grooving

Revolution won't be televised

It's the music

[HOOK]

[Mini-bridge]

I'm the only one working this hard

I can't compare myself to you

[Verse 2: CHRIS WISE]

Had to register my write hand as a weapon

Bout to go left and get ambidextrous!

MY MISSION:

Is teach black children

Disseminate the wisdom on how to live with intention

How to:

Use the mind to design new dimensions

With the rhymes I'm alive

Visionary with the ink

I was living on the brink 'til I heard this one thing

Being broke don't just hurt self, it hurts WE!

And I been on the shelf too many cot damn weeks

And ain't nobody getting me down except me

Ain't nobody holding me back except me

Ain't nobody gon' see the magic

Until C believe C, yea

Hitman like Owen Shaw

Rest in peace to Owen Hart

A lot of these rap guys

Couldn't even come outside

If the Pimp was still alive

But the media always letting bullshit fly

They in business of seeing my people die

Kids learning Percocet before they learn penmanship

Good behavior only come in context of the sentences

The 1 - 3, 3-8, 5-10 f**k that

School-to-prison pipeline

Nah, I don't trust that

Most of history

They ain't even want us to read

So why would i trust the books they want us to read?

[HOOK]

Life is a test

Is you passing or bitching?
