[Verse 1: M.I.]
My restoration of desperation has kept me waitin'
On a better place in this rap game, I better make it
They hear me rapping about weed smoke and levitation
They think I'm shallow, but every bar could wet up Satan
Go to heaven gates with intention to educate
The finest angels on my divine lyrics for better placement
Taking flight, but never accept the featherweight sh**
And if I'm excavatin', I can dig deeper when my ex would say it's
Better if we slow down, We never race and
I could never take it, I told her that she looks better naked
She swears that I don't have a heart and my chest is vacant
Instead of waitin', lets just do it because heaven gates is
Loomin' over the horizon, when time ends
And we're mad we wasted it, lets just get a taste of it
Brave enough to try it so you can't fault a blatant miss
And you simple n***as don't know what to make of this (huhhh)
[Hook: M.I.]
I know a lot and I ain't even begin to win (Restoration)
So lets get a clean slate and begin again (Restoration)
Only so much I can take before I vent again
Rob me of my ignorance and take my innocence
X2
[Verse 2: M.I.]
I'm chasing a dream down an endless road
It got a little more to it than the endless hoes
You got to fight for your life until you're in control
Where the win-less grown into an injured soul
I just pull it from my mind so my pen can go
And a bullet from the wise will condemn your glow
My road is litter with broken clocks
But this road is not where I intend to go
I intend to grow
Looking at the high clouds, trying to catch contact before my lenses show
Wasted time ain't regrettable
Because maybe the future is forgettable
Maybe you'll never know, Maybe you'll never show
You're full potential in the days that you're never low
A broken clock is right twice a day
Could have turned guns into roses like twice today (But hey)
[Hook: M.I.]
[Skit: The Joker (From The Dark Knight film)]
Tell the truth. You've changed things forever
There's no going back. Don't talk like one of them
You're not. Even if you wanted to be
See, to them you're just a freak like me
See, they need you right now
But when they don't, they'll cast you out like a lepper
You see, their morals... Their code... It's a bad joke
Drop at the first sign of trouble
They're only as good as the world allows them to be
You'll see. When the chips are down
These civilized people will eat themselves
See, I'm not a monster
I'm just ahead of the curve
[Hook: M.I.]
