[Verse]
Don't live life sedatedly
Don't waste your potential
Create new realities
That have never been conceived by the likes of human beings
Honestly
There's a disciplined little girl from China who's better than me
Who's a worthy adversary
But is her pa**ion equal to her obligation as it is for me?
What about my parents
Why didn't they get the same opportunities as me?
My father was raised by the streets
And my mother came here to America when she was only 17
What can I do to match that struggle
That my parents had to endure
Am I the product of my setting or the master of my own identity
Am I not what I appear to be?
So what can I do about my anxiety?
I find my peace of mind by consuming trees
And navigating through the universe
Medicating with each pa**ing verse
[Chorus]
Cue the strings, it's the dramatic part of the story
'Cause without a true struggle you don't feel the glory
Speak your mind and your words become real
It's a magical reality that's being revealed
Cue the strings, it's the dramatic part of the story
'Cause without a true struggle you don't feel the glory
Speak your mind and your words become real
It's a magical reality appreciate it while it's here...
Appreciate the amazing reality
That's being bestowed before you
Honestly, it's truuuue
Honestly, this reality is made for you
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
Cue the strings, it's the dramatic part of the story
'Cause without a true struggle you don't feel the glory
Speak your mind and your words become real
It's an amazing reality that's being revealed
Cue the strings, it's the dramatic part of the story
'Cause without a true struggle you don't feel the glory
Speak your mind and your words become real
It's a trippy reality, do what you can with your sk**s
That you hone, the ones that you use to create your own story
The ones you concoct in your laboratory
Don't be a fool, use what you learned from school
Your talents can fight as tools
[Verse]
This is the breakdown of the song
So I won't stay long with what I have to say
Do what you're meant to do with your life
'Cause this unforgettable reality was never meant to stay
Can the king keep the peace while the queen's out to conquer
'Cause the bloodstains on his hands have got his mind feeling somber
And the ghosts of the slain haunt his life all night and day
Is he guilty much to his dismay?
Can you feel your mortality in your veins?
Is your existence what makes you feel insane?
Don't let it die in vain, it's the warrior's way
But the conqueror too is here to stay
