Hey Limit... Let's Go! (Hi-ya!)


[Verse 1: Limit]

It's the innovation, the inner-hatred that drives me

Gotta walk the path wisely and stay lively

My mind's set, went from "might be" to "hell yes"

Visionin' my mission, can't be too overzealous

It's a given that my shit might sell less

But I'm rocket launching flows, suck it MCs appellates(?)

They're blind firing, I'm aiming at your third eye

And the music takes me seagull-pelican-bird high

'Bout to take a turd on these Bozo haters

Propane sprayers split the ozone layer

Into fractions, yeah, Limit back in action

With the burning passion that even scorches ashes

And I'm driven by your reaction to my interaction

With every instrumental that I'm smashin'

That's how it happens, so I stay craftin'

The shit that make you say "ooh" "aahh", ad-libs


[Hook]

It's the breath and the life

It's the reason that I even touch the mic

So I can't stop 'til they burn my corpse

It's the purpose, the motive, the driving force

(Uh...)

It's everything in my surroundings

It's my rhymes and the beat compounding

Which, in turn, dictates my life's course

It's the purpose, the motive, the driving force


[Verse 2: Limit]

It's the creativity, the vibe in my proximity

The way I pick up the mic to deliver these

Bombs to your doorstep, releasing Hazmat

'Til they suffocate and can't breathe, chorus set(?)

And it's the killer mentality

The X-Ray to see straight through these bullshit fallacies

It's the real, the "Fuck it, I say what I feel"

And consequently, have the people callin' you ill

It's the craftsmanship, the intricate measures that we take

Sayin', "Naw, scratch that and do better"

It's the intimate pleasures, we have with the instruments

When I'm into it, blank page, I put my pen to it

It's the, "Take a break, now I'm blankin'"

And what your creation come alive like Franken-

-Stein, in that case, I take my time

And vibe out, and just let these forces drive me


[Hook]

It's the breath and the life

It's the reason that I even touch the mic

So I can't stop 'til they burn my corpse

It's the purpose, the motive, the driving force

(Uh...)

It's everything in my surroundings

It's my rhymes and the beat compounding

Which, in turn, dictates my life's course

It's the purpose, the motive, the driving force


[Verse 3: Limit]

It's the expression, the blessin' in each life lesson

The impression that you make in every cypher and session

The message, the pen I'm grippin' in my hand

The things I can't describe, but I know I understand

It's the, "What the hell, he's asian?"

Blazin' tracks, sayin' that one day he'll be a major act

So I'm prayin' that you're turnin' me up

It's the, I-can't-control-this feeling in my gut

It's the, you can't say anything that'll stop me

The scribbled out, revised rhymes, leavin' sloppy pages

It's the get your flow right

It's the be different, why not? Take a chance, throw dice

It's my fam, my friends, it's my girl

She said, "I know you got it, you can do it, show the world!"

It's the go hard once the red light is on

It's my heart spillin' all over the microphone (Uh)


[Hook]

It's the breath and the life

It's the reason that I even touch the mic

So I can't stop 'til they burn my corpse

It's the purpose, the motive, the driving force

(Uh...)

It's everything in my surroundings

It's my rhymes and the beat compounding

Which, in turn, dictates my life's course

It's the purpose, the motive, the driving force
