VERSE 1: January 1st 2023

I was on malaria and typhoid medicine

Like 2023 is this how you choose to begin

God is the greatest cause Jesus had got me healed

Life is a trip, I’m sitting at the backseat

Observing passengers everyone is unhappy

Because the country’s economy is throwing back flips

Election is at hand, they’re determined to not quit

But inside my head, I’m having different thoughts

I’m not hoping on the government for my deepest wants

I understand there’s no such thing as a perfect world

But you and I can be drivers of our life’s bus

That same January, I suffered a sharp pain in my abdomen

I couldn’t sleep, the pain was effing intense, couldn’t even eat properly

Drugs I was taking couldn’t even seem to alleviate it

HOOK: Can I get another lifetime

Like if I die tonight, Can I get another lifetime?

Cause short are the times, Can I get another lifetime?

My dreams to optimize, Can I get another lifetime?

God please, Can I get another lifetime?

VERSE 2: In fact two more

I need to prove to the universe I can do more

And I will be more appreciated by the newborns

I’m underrated it’s like an effing tumor

I need a different environs, a different platform

A generation to be blessed by my rap songs

Cause right now I feel I’m trapped in the wrong world

Why are ladies in the street wearing bum shorts?

Underwear online shaking buttocks

So when I rap with substance I just get shunned

On the media almost everything is sexualized

Will you open your eyes, and come to visualize

A greater purpose that will fulfill all of our lives

Nobody lives forever, but legacy long survives

HOOK:

VERSE 3: Perhaps inspire them better with the right rhymes

I’ve been doubting myself ‘cause I barely get hyped

It’s hard to hit the bull eye on the first try

It’s like I’m asking for something that is impossible

But you said with you that nothing is impossible

I could have asked for great fame and the world’s wealth

But I’m more concerned about our soul’s health

I’ve wasted most of my days, some useless es I’ve chased

Your V wouldn’t sooth my pain

Your V wouldn’t make me great

And some wrong niggas I met

Meaningless vibes they connect

And fake friends, I banked on but effed me up life Zenith

They try to kill my dreams

Is either nightmare or sleep paralysis

What if I don’t get up?

This bus we’re riding in what if it effing somersaults

What if I just get shot?

This ulcer pain it hurts

God Please

Hook:

Can I get another lifetime

Like if I die tonight, Can I get another lifetime?

Cause short are the times, Can I get another lifetime?

My dreams to optimize, Can I get another lifetime?

God please, Can I get another lifetime?

Can I get another lifetime?

Need to redeem the times, Can I get another lifetime?

My dreams to optimize, Can I get another lifetime?

God please, another lifetime, another lifetime another lifetime

God please
