[Verse One: XV]

I could have been that guy, that'll drive, 5 hours out to TX

Just to get some work, ain't no telling where I'm gonna be next

Out there doing dirt, now my momma need a Kleenex

Could have been me, I hit the reset

Still, the meals from a deal leave me appealed

Out for Will Smith money that I can leave in my will

My nigga Kareem in jail, I hope he get his appeals

That's a reset button for real

And I'm still

Seeing the glass half full, they notice it

Eviction notices, soon as I put my two week notice in

My boss working like, "I hope that you blow up then"

If not I hit the reset button...go again

Scared of your goals, cause what if you don't achieve it

So college is where you go, but one day you got to leave it

The Grim Reapers feeling, one day, you're going to meet it

So just live everyday like that day you're going to see it

Me and this dude I knew well

Skipping school, trying to be cool

Two losers so we're rolling up two l's

Never got on board to our dreams going into full sail

So you know what to do well


[Hook]

Just hit the reset button

Hit the reset button

Just hit the reset button

Hit the reset button


[Verse Two: Talib Kweli]

My rhymes make you pay attention like you're Ritalin

There's a thin line between a savage and a gentleman

I never tire, hit the road like a Michelin

And if I stop, then I begin again

Making a profit because I'm cutting out the middleman

I'm giving him a ticket because he's loitering and littering

He got the game messed up

All twisted and contorted, so it's more important who you consider fam

I used to want a deal

But now I want my freedom

These industry motherfuckers, I don't fucking need 'em

Matter of fact, they need me

The problem with their business model deeper than the scratches on your CD

I see these rappers still sleeping, I call them Ambien

Consider me a beast, the epitome of a champion

This the World Series

I'm Mr. October

I hit the reset button and I start over

[Hook]:

Just hit the reset button

Hit the reset button

Just hit the reset button

Hit the reset button


[Verse Three: XV]

Ex-girl tripping

Next girl wishing that she could do everything that my ex-girl didn't

My next girl trying to tell my next ex something

They both got that reset button

The first taste of fame

I splurged on a chain, like a 1,000 DVDs and a car in my name

A bunch of friends, a bunch of haters, it all is the same

Once I watch it all go...never saw when it came

Dang

But I don't wanna get into that

Thinking back to my crew when I first started spitting raps

Drugs put us up and real stuff, I wish it didn't black

Reset and let me get it back

My son growing up

Seeing him calling me daddy

Through all the opposition I can still look at him proudly

And tell him all the things I wouldn't be without him

Brought those sunny days out me when they swore it would be cloudy

Can't wait to tell him stories about, me and his mother

And how I'd only reset to get his twin brother

What would he have to like? I wonder

But live's good, I never want another

And never hit the reset button

[Hook]:

Just hit the reset button

Hit the reset button

Just hit the reset button

Hit the reset button
