[Verse 1: MaJiK MC]
I can't compare myself to none of y'all!...Let's keep it real
You don't know my past, Try to walk a mile, Tryna' fit my shoes ain't an easy fill
Best to catch a ride; This path of mine Ain't designed for your kind, I can tell by your eyes
I can tell by the tales That you tell And your tail behind, You a tail of lies
Tell me that I'm lion Like my pride ain't riding; Sizing up the game like prey
Striving just to stake our claim, Driving in our lane, make way
Make mistakes and make change…Make a name that don't age
It's all systems go, no breaks, Always on time but late!
That's peace! I'm out, All these raps about sh** you don't have, sh** that don't last
sh** with no math, sh** that don't add, sh** with less substance than the sh** I just crapped
sh** makes me laugh...I swear, God has a sense of humor
How the world presents the past, Same way it presents the future
Look, history repeats and victory deletes any history of whom the victor defeats
Picture the kings and remember the legends, imagine the peasants who never get mentioned
Sentences penned with the blood of the martyrs, scribed by the scholars, written by authors
To rule over a people who follow dreams that are owned by dollars
[Chorus: MaJiK MC]
As the world turns…business as usual
Head light comets, starry cities so beautiful
Treadmilling hamsters rat racing in their cubicles
And I don't fit the mold, only box you can stick me in is at my funeral
b**h I'm a problem, a monster, no closet, how many times I must tell you I'm on it
On like the opposite of what off is, on until my lights out and I ain't got no off switch
...Honest, I'm on it, no con sh**
Just conscious…my content? To put it in context…no contest
[Verse 2: MaJiK MC]
It's no contest…who the f**'s my competition?
I'm battling my past, wrestling my demons, racing my thoughts, and I'm pushing the limits
Going the distance, squaring off with the man in the mirror, hand in the air
I solemnly swear to never turn away but always look straight and stand against fear
Standing with myself, my own worst enemy knowing that I'll never be
The man from my memories but that's the plan so remember he's
…Canned…so that we can…have the chance to…channel his energy
…And pa** on the past…so what's pa**ed has pa**ed through the entropy
...To be the best though, I let go of…all my worst features, specifically the leaches
Every single weakness, all the wrong reasons, anything and everything that is not needed
….Like a dream if you sleeping…or work with no goal
What's peace if a piece is appeased, what's hope if the whole thing's a hoax?
What's sheep to the goat, man to his people? To lead with no folk is a man and his ego
Add to the fact that man will subtract another man from the math so that man has no equal
I stand unafraid of man and his evils…especially my own
Time after time, only thing on my mind is knowing more than before
[Chorus: MaJiK MC]
So as the world turns…business as usual
Head light comets, starry cities so beautiful
Treadmilling hamsters rat racing from their cubicles
And I don't fit the mold, only box you can stick me in is at my funeral
b**h I'm a problem, a monster, no closet, how many times I must tell you I'm on it
On like the opposite of what off is, on until my lights out and I ain't got no off switch
...Honest, I'm on it, no con sh**
Just conscious…my content? To put it in context…no contest
