[Verse]
It's my time like my name was on the clock now
Living legend but I'm feeling like I'm PAC now
Y'all saying I'm a plain old rapper but this
Plane old rapper still ain't never getting shot down
I'm too fly for it, if you gotta problem with
What I been saying boy then you better have a reply for it
Cuz the message I been preaching I would die for it
Death don't scare me boy I'm too alive for it
Gave my life to Christ for it, loyal from the side forward
Back left up down under and the right for it
Sorry if it s too blunt but I'm smoking every rapper
In the game it's no wonder I'm always high scoring
I might switch it up and have my daddy rap
I might switch it up and have my granny rap
Talking bout me like can he rap I might switch it up on
All these trends and rock a motherlovin fanny pack
Going for the crown better hand me that
This is life or death, homie tell me did you plan for that?
Tryna get a grip on life it's hard to handle that
Getting on a roller coaster ride like where the handles at?
But it's still lit, lights out homie where the candles at
People looking at my shades like "dang man what brand is that? "
Oh these ? They some ray bans , asked the Lord
For 'em way back that just goes to show what faith can
Do for ya when it's in the right place
Looking like mice in a maze cuz we running in a tight race
Life changed ever since I met the Man
Gave me all he had just so I could have a blessing man
That's why I stay grinding, up so late I don't ever let the light in
Y'all just chicken on the mic like Tyson
So hot when I walk in I change the climate
Y'all couldn't put me out even with a hydrant
Tell me Is it time only lord knows
I can see through the lies even with the door closed
Everybody sleepin on me I been up
Working late at night my pajamas are my work clothes
Cuz lately I ain't sleepin much
Ran the game so long lames having trouble keepin up
You would think my heart was cold as ice cuz I always got the heater tucked
So ahead of death my alarm woke the reaper up
Cold on road like a freezer truck, they don't wanna
See me up, wanna see me fall like the season does
Mad I ain't leave her once, mad I never cheated once
Mad I ain't been beaten once, still cooking heaters up
Jamie told me keep it up, Nathan told me keep it up
Brad told me keep it up, Miya told me keep it up
Brittany said to keep it up, Baron said to keep it up
Kiar said to keep it up, never backing out so I
Guess I'll run the meter up, checkin yalls flows like a
Meter truck, glued to the screen Y'all seeming stuck
The real don't speak enough, that's why I been speaking up
Gave em something better that's why everybody needing us
I'm just growing more aware as the brains getting older
So much hostility it feels like the place getting colder
Tryna keep the peace but still keep my foundation and boldness
What I'm benching don’t compare to the weight on my shoulders
Life or death decisions are weighing heavy on me
Which direction to trek on is weighing heavy on me
Which reflection I'm showing is weighing heavy on me
That's why I'm home instead of flexing out at every party
Doing me even when it ain't what's popular
Girls love Beyoncé , always tryna copy her
Looking for a check, even when these people hardly work
Taking like they crazy rocking pigtails and Harley shirts
Y'all a bunch of jokers I'm straight faced but grinning
I've faced hate and critics, in pain but I'm winning
In grace I'm ascending, I'm making a difference
Each statement I'm given is breaking the limits
I'm all in, with all chips, cards all split
An apostate, never conforming to what you all did
False system I'm different a misfit
Ain't no crane but I'm lifted, so get this now
[Outro]
This is life or death man. Life or death is in the power of the tongue. What you say matters. What you say has power; and we're doing it with a purpose. Let's get it
