You've hit a situation where breakin' rules means makin' rules
Taking fools advice will leave your life inside of teary pools
Be leery; choose a destination for your history
If there's any doubt, it's no doubt, it's not your destiny Somedays life is laughter and after it gets the best of me
It's best to be aware it ain't fair and it will never be
You've got to choose a path and find time to relax
Stress is common, goes on, and every human has a memory
Of a time when a dime was all we needed to pay the bill
Or get an extra taco or buy the baby milk
It don't feel good to be wrong, stronger men have walked away
Every day's an hour longer and every check is smaller pay
Don't rain your own parade these worldly ways will surely pass
Grab your life, it's time to shine and that's the stuff that's got me gassed
Don't ask - you don't get and I've received a lot of nothin'
Somethin's bound to happen, having heart will ease your sufferin'
Some will go this way, some will choose that way;
Other heads will stray, what is the pathway?
Some take the shortcut, some take the backway;
Others go halfway, what is the pathway?
No need to say what, shut the fuck up I'm a tell ya
Your ass to fast to talk, I caught the anger tryin' to swell ya
But calm it down, don't explode, be quick to listen, there's a road
Some travel straight and some stray, some have to learn the hard way
Replay the past to reveal the future, you know the endin'
Time transcends, spinning the globe form no beginning
No self control, protect your soul if you don't know where you're going
How you gonna there, are you gonna fit there?
You just gonna sit there and say you've been there and not even know
If the destination where you landed is where you were destined to go
Don't be deceived, see bad company corrupts good morals
Look around; always peep your surroundings on the thorough
Sure you'll see contradictions no matter which path you walk
Drunk men speak sober thoughts and witnesses don't talk
This beaten path been here for years and many seen the same nights
Whether you think you can or can't do it, you're right
Slept for 7 days 11 hours to repower me
Middle of Nevada where the sun had drained my energy
Area 51, the found me in the desert heat
Deplete me of my fluids, stuck me for my tightest beats
Took the drum machine, robbed my whole identity
Chose the wrong path, government was never friend to me
Got to fight the powers, unite against the enemy
So take the side of emcees to keep it from unraveling
Kinda like a prophet, I'm foretelling life as I see it
And since words are the deepest corridor of meaning I speak it
Peep my song, am I wrong for walking straight, I contemplate
And deeply ponder which is stronger, love or hate
Got me pouting cause I figured out this world ain't perfect
I'm a have my fair share of problems even if I don't deserve it
But I'll continue to stand tall and just watch the ignant fall
That's what you get for trying to walk before you master the crawl
