[Jennifer Hudson] Guess I gotta forget all about this issue And try to live my life just like it is Whooa But I want everybody to remember me (everybody) I will come back 10 years ago (well, hey) Said I want everybody to remember me When I go back 10 years and years ago When I get my second chance [Lupe Fiasco] When I get my second chance I'm gon' redeem myself When I bring myself, me and my team my help Ain't no “I” in that but I'm in that so I am packed Like there's ten of me inside of that Ain't one man army, one man army I am that Bring it back like a typer-writer, writing that I attack like a lightning strike with a lions wrath With a vipers bite come alive with that Put your life on that Like everything I do though All my old wounds have all healed but they still feel like they new though And everytime I see ‘em I start to think of you yo First I wasn't focused, wasn't willing and my goon's So performance was just lackin at those moments that were crucial Now my heart is razor sharp and confidence is MUCHO Big, things I can't forgive, things I can't forget Things I can't relive, the agony is asking me, defeat is sweet to sin But I put that on my city we will never meet again
[Hook] Never miss the city of the wind that I'm in City of the wind that I'm in We can do it now We can do it now We can do it now We can do it we can do we can do it now Second chance, second win, do it again Yeah eah, eeeeah Yeah we do it again We can do it now Lets do it again We can do it now Do it now [Common] The rise of the phoenix, sweat falls Time has its meaning, I evolve Hit the ground and bounce back up, just like B-Ball Muhammad Ali jaw, I knew that I would be all Far from where I came from, the same place that pain's from My name hung, from the rafters before an aftermath of a master Wishing I could have the moment to grab the trophy and gla** of champagne My locker rooms a cold place, LA got no gates You mighta seen this man cry, that was just my old face My soul waits redemption and intervention from a higher dimension Inspire mission, no more hoping or wishing, conditions'll change Stickers say Barack on the range I'm from the Chi' too, now I'm Barack in the game Came back and overcame, overstood the rain More than just the fame, married to the game Now I hold the reign [Hook]
