Rhymer/Educator;Themind - The Finish Line (feat. Themind) Lyrics

First we make our choices then our choices make us
You'll see
This life is linear
Trying to be a sentient being
I gave it 33 years now it's time for me to tackle this thing
And now I've got all this perspective to bring
When I was young I was an emulator
I was so quick to write a verse just to demonstrate the talent
The curse was that it sounded like them other players
Wasn't diverse
It took maturity to find what works
But now it's funny how when suddenly there's nothing to lose
You put away the thoughts of fame and start to seek some influence
You shed the skin of what has been and start to climb out the ruins
Originality is on the other side now check what I'm doing
I'm that nique with the U in front
Rhymer/Educator, you could join my class if you want
When you don't think that you can score you put your faith in punt
I came to play a different game than you cool kids
Cause this is what my truth is
Tell me how we suppose to figure this out
Running to the finish line
Running to the finish line, oh
Tell me how we suppose to figure this out
Running to the finish line
I'm almost at the finish line
Pressing buttons on elevators to nowhere
Top notch cold stares
I mean most people froze here
I strike a pose there
Like loaded bases on a home run walk off
It goes there
Penny pinching, my publishing be my pension
Honestly the lack of mentions
In terms of the game shifting
Is actually quite sickening
I'm on my own picturing
The world in perfect harmony
I feel the light inching in
Change is often eminent
Growth is never limited
I've grown sentient
So tell me where my ending is
You can't
Finally the love is omnipotent
And this is still only my beginning
You still think you can win at this
Tell me how we suppose to figure this out
Running to the finish line
Running to the finish line, oh
Tell me how we suppose to figure this out
Running to the finish line
I'm almost at the finish line
Now last verse is for society
Actively scribing a moment
Will it or won't it
Fill buckets or spill upon it
We pass the buck or we own it
What legacy we condoning today
Forks in the road demand that we choose a way
Will history show that we chose to okay
Intolerance and oppression
While window dressing in patriotic displays
Or will it show that we chose to oppose it
It's hard to focus when voters protect the rose colored glasses upon their noses
Then wonder why things ain't coming up roses
I'm here to say
A new day demands
No more sleep
We can
Wake up
Be human
The sun shines on land
Just one time
Not wait till it's crunch time
Oh man
It's time that we drew a line in the sand
And if we do
My worldview concludes that it's your world too
And in our world a few can make all of the difference
Only if we choose to reject indifference
I'm talkin' bout
Tell me how we suppose to figure this out
Running to the finish line
Running to the finish line, oh
Tell me how we suppose to figure this out
Running to the finish line
I'm almost at the finish line
