Yeah, of course I have no idea
About how this will play out
I know you want me to stay now
But upon my arrival I'ma say how
Much I've motherf*cking changed
Every obstacle that I've overcame
How I harnessed the waves
In my brain
For every time I was thrown shade
Or when there was just no way
I side step
Dodge that shit
Mind this
Positive kid
Kind of poet like
With his focus right
Cause his heart is away from money and fame
It's priceless in his veins
Wale repeat in the ear piece
I pray whoever needs this will hear me
Cause loud music healed me
When my thoughts conflicted my feelings
Lucky mums house is the house of healing
Although next door is service sex stealing
And drug dealing
I'm not focused on money reeling
But I'd like my mum not to have cracked walls and cracked ceilings
That's why I'm pushing past my boundaries
Everyday is a choice to be average or astounding
I'm glad that you've found me
Now I just gotta stand my ground and
Keep on the path lit up for me
No survival kit is free
But I sure hope these boots are a fit for me
And I've got working bear spray
Some consumed by monsters can't go their way
Monsters of addictions, lies
Once living life
Now shifting minds
Dark within mine
Prescription highs
To get lifted right
But the lifts inside
Can't reach it
No matter how deep I cut
It's too steep I'm stuck
Can't climb
So I gotta negotiate with my mind
To set me free
But nestled in my hand is the key
Ironically
The captor and the captive
We can create a prison with destructive habits
Self awareness I gotta have it
To be ready for opportunities
Reach and grab it
And not be afraid
I'm way beyond the days
Of putting me lower than everybody else
So I stand up for the misunderstood
And stand up for my mother f*cking self
That's why I'm pushing past my boundaries
Everyday is a choice to be average or astounding
I'm glad that you've found me
Now I just gotta stand my ground and
Keep all demons at bay
I'm dreaming of ways
To have all my friends in the same place
And my family to have great days
With not a single worry about the cake race
I'ma make ways
If I can't find any
And rhyme plenty nouns
And grind many hours
Till I've really found
What I'm searching for
It's hurting more
When you're not sure
What will heal wounds
God's voice I hope I hear soon
Cause I can't bear to
See the ones I love in pain
They try to mask it but it's clear as day
I want to tear a way
Through this tough terrain
And make a path
That will last
Leave a print on your heart
So when it's hard
At least you have an idea of where to start
And choose to evade
The hate
Cause you create
Your happiness
I know as a kid
There was a lack of this
But now I practice this
So when I fall it's soft like mattresses
The magic is
In the words while I'm rapping this
You and I both yeah
You and I both can be having this
That's why I'm pushing past my boundaries
Average or astounding
The choice is yours
The choice is yours
The choice is yours
It's up to you what you choose to do
Each day
Don't let your life slip away
