[Verse 1] You always suffer from the painful scars right from the start Broken at the heart, hopelessly aiming towards the stars Will you make it far, do you know who you are? You ain't top par unless you set a high bar Do you understand that every man has a chance to advance? You don't understand the street grime or why we grind I've always rhymed subliminally spitting every line You're just straight lyin'/lion (Roar!) While I'm a phoenix flying These cases can relate, but that doesn't mean you can debate These haters won't wait for the story to fade and escalate We MCs possess too much power that lies in destiny and fate I guess that's just destiny, but you took my heart - fatality It prevents me from retaliation and seeing reality That's why we suffer the pain in exchange for the game The rap game contains these stupid fans who hail Lil' Waine Bad taste in music's inhumane, that's why my reputation is stained [Verse 2] I'll be growing older and the weather just gets colder How can I survive with all this weight on my shoulders? No, I won't take that they're, just wait and We we will get a reward for our patience Karma (by Atar-E) - It's what's made my life so hard I guess it's because I don't know where the story starts It shone son/sun, with no end and no beginning A home run - this caused me to lose in the final inning You keep on losing but your arrogance just says you're winning You see, you've got to learn to be stern if you want to spit illy Be concrete and strong in every song, just don't be weak Is it truly revenge that you seek? Face reality, it's the pain that brings us scars Physical or emotional, it helps you realize who you are Aiming so high so you can know what your goal is I've got a spirit that you destroyed before you stole it [Verse 3] Every single night I hopelessly lie awake in ache and I for some reason keep fighting when my soul is taken You see, it is your brain that is maintained by your soul You think your soul is resilient? Well, I call bull None of us think straight, that's why we make bad choices These scars seep so deep to where your heart is poison These artists face themselves to try, why even bother? They can't think straight with a hard mother and no father He just grinds and grinds tryna reach the unbroken Stride that he admires and rides for, this demise of problems He's spent all his life just tryna solve 'em Nope, it's hopeless, he didn't hear the whole time he's calling He's made a horrible imprint, his actions were indignant Sometimes he wonders if happiness is just a figment The stars are just too high to touch and are still too far Some day, they'll be in reach and heal our scars His life is scenic, he's Anemic with no future gleaming He's made this bad imprint just trying to redeem it It doesn't matter how many times he says he's sorry He'll never be forgiven by Revelation and Atar-E All he wants to do is stand before the crowd Take a bow before the crowd and make them scream so loud He's a king who has emotions without a crown, no Blood Roses It's the closest we got to getting past out scars and my frown [Outro] We both know my story will be told some day, some way My life s**s but it gives me the sk** I display Never would I want these emotional scars to phase me The fact that I survived it never seizes to amaze me I suffer these scars...
