[Verse] Did it one time, I was good for a minute Did it two times, I was good for a minute Did it three times, my eyes started burning Did it four times, then a n***a lost focus Mind wandering, stomach in knots Steady on edge like I'm running from the cops Ready to rumble when a pen drop Then I start feeling cool like a n***a in a drop top Scratching my neck, crackhead flow Hit me with that good and I'm buzzing on the floor Foaming at the mouth but I'm laughing Got a smile on my face but the situation tragic Eyes open in a hospital bed All I see is green and red I'm too out of it, tryna snap out of it Try to walk on my own but I was overconfident Now I'm really wondering Is my life so bad that I'm headed for destruction What happened to my gumption? Damn, what happened to my gumption? I wasn't raised as a fool so Gotta get my life back on the go Back on the straight and narrow, you know If I cut corners then I gotta cut close But that's not in me (nope) Gotta take the long road, ya see Cause I gotta recognize the man in the mirror If I don't then I might lose the picture
Thinking 'bout the past, ooh!, not again Wanna live my life better cause I'm in it to win Don't want my family to suffer Better walk by the Spirit according to the scripture There it is, ah!, there it is, ah! Its true so it is what it is Meditate the Word and think about good things Cause it brings L-I-F-E To your B-O-D-Y, no deny Got your war clothes, then shawty let's ride Let's ride, let's ride That's right, right Make your first step to your victory And all that awaits is prosperity You don't need that bad habit in your life I know somebody who can give you true life No I'm not a PK or a preacher I'm a man who used to be defeated But through hell and high water, I'm here today And I'll still be here till my very last day Can't nothin' bring me down cause I'm way too high So high I can give God a high five All good vibes come next to me So I won't lose control and have to go to therapy Past mistakes is way behind me Old troubles is way behind me Toxic company is way behind me Negative views stay way behind me, uh!
