[Intro: Samples]

For you

Y'know

I can

Not understand that kinda habit

But when you

Really

When

Gets a hold of your life

Then

You'll understand


[Verse 1: Cise Star]

Feelin’ the rush, my heart palpitate to the beat

While I step to the stage, in a daze, ready, release

Settin’ loose the soul, hands gripped tight on the microphone

Whether it's right or wrong, or ready to get it on, gone

Into the innermost chamber of love

The music's a drug, it's keepin’ my heart from gettin’ numb

Livin’, walkin’, and talkin’

Singin, hopin’ that Lord will it

Children under the sun, dance ‘til the sky spinnin’

Listen or know, never. Tougher than good leather

We gonna rock it steady, the sound is so clever

Together, tight-knit to the sweater

While I end, you begin, let's live forever


[Chorus: Cise Star]

But I chronicle my death for toll

Writin’ myself down ‘til I reach my goal

‘Cause only heaven knows when I'm gonna stop

Maybe it's just when my body drops

My body drops


[Verse 2: Akin Yai]

From the black stage, you lurkin’ on

To these songs I'm working on

A ying-yang theory, came like light was shone upon

Exhibit A, the have-nots

We all hustling to get cash, I'm hopin’ this mic strike a jackpot

Of wisdom to the globe (to the globe), piercing earlobes

With jewels real heavy, yet steady when you rock it (God)

Love for my b-girl, I'm comin’ out the pocket (Uh-huh)

Captivated by life, created on paper (Paper)

I bomb with the off-on that's sworn to escape the (Escape the)

Narrow gates of hate that conquer man's nature (Huh)

Man in the mirror still shy ‘til I face ya (Nah)

Head high, hold ground, and speech is my major

Supreme rhyme graduate, got pens to stab you with

Poetic sketches of pain that rain, thoughts immaculate

Connected


[Chorus: Cise Star]

Yeah I chronicle my life for toll

I grasp my path, with this pen I scroll

See, only God knows what the future hold

But still I take cover but this world is cold

This world is cold

I chronicle my life for toll

I grasp my path, with this pen I scroll

See, only God knows what the future hold

Man I take cover but this world is cold

Yo, this world is cold

[Verse 3: Cise Star and Akin Yai]

In between the lines, I write my heart swiftly

So turn another page, I rage until I'm empty

I'm simply the best, caress words so gently

It's paragraphs I laugh, last lines I'm endin’

Beginning of the end, I touch streets with meanin’

Awake but in a daze, so maybe I'm still dreamin’
