[Verse 1: D. Ciano]
Envision me existing, with no time for living while I'm here
Along-side the 9-5 crime victims who volunteer
A desk by the windows at Microsoft office can sound absurd
When you'd rather excel making power points out your Word
I know I dream large, yea I'm so fascinating
Even tho I'm like the Steve Jobs of procrastinating
An Innovator in my own way, Shakespearean my own play
The whole day, and not concerned with whatever they gon' say
I been through this road, attention is owed, so pay up
How come they always try to talk you down, on your way up
They throw up how many discs flop, they need to believe me a
Real album that's sick'll sell, see me as Anemia
[Chorus: Christopher Micheal]
It may seem so far, tryna reach the stars
All I gotta do is Just keep living
My life
Tho the days are long, I'll keep holding on
All I gotta do is, just keep living
My Life
[Verse 2: D. Ciano]
I swear as hard I work, regardless of turf
I'll hydraulic the earth, & search till they all know what my product is worth
I hear this trash shared today without a message to tell ya
I know my link will save the day, this the Legend of Zelda
Critics say I need more profanity in each verse
I admit I'm used to this gift, but still doubt I need da curse
Been seeing my foes multiply for a product of anger
But I'm too focused on da vision, I'm the only remainder
Just a quotient whose stranger, than someone you haven't met yet
Racing Zuckerberg's pockets.. On my Mark, untill I get set
I Bench Press my city, she needs the repping I do
She'll see me press her, no pressure, I'm CT Fletcher for you
So be impressed with my moves, cause I deposit my truth
And black through thought so know I haven't forgotten my roots
And I ain't purchase a following, views to please other people
Buying those ounces of followers, still don't equal a leader
[Chorus]
[Verse 3: D. Ciano]
In this colorful world, where they only see black & white
I have to write universes, to show these stars ain't half as bright
Success approaching, will I go for the green like a traffic light
They asking will a fortune turn you around? no Vanna White
I doubt it, the greedy crowd is too crowded
You'll see me shout it the loudest, now that my route's been rerouted
I doubt they stop, or Roger Klotz me this grave I dug wasn't Funny
So no point in warring with me if they ain't got Buffett money
Why let Reality be a prison and have your dreams visit you?
Where those who aren't predicates are subject to be sentenced to
Life, the life of mediocracy that they'll give to you
And pick for you, raffle jobs, enter you for the interview
Given you, care enough, I raise the steaks where it's tough
Cause anything well done in this medium's rare enough
So when my name is seen, know I'm here to change the scene
With my words attached to the bigger picture I'm making memes
Basically, I aim to please, so, daily I chase the dream
Arrogant peers with minimal sk**, think they can make the team
Your hooks are cool, but ya bars, lately it ain't Kareem
And lies make up your foundation, so Maybe it's Maybelline
Stay humble, time behind these bars'll crash ya endeavor
If I take the liberty to bail you out, you'll crack under pressure
The flow slick as Rick, The Ruler's Back and that you can measure
Those who dig me were after a treasure, And 1
It's pivotal I travel, to crossover fast as Professor
As the aggressor, save ya questions for after the lecture
I want those Tribe Called Quest days, this'll get y'all to start
So can I kick it, while throwing punches like Mixed Martial Arts
See ever since this food for thought found it's way in my diet
I've been spitting Cane cause I'm able to David Goliath
They saw your CD, and it's not that they weren't able to buy it
But fans are here to stay, & ya Motel ain't the same as the Hyatt
[Chorus]
