Brotha Soul - Final Fantasy lyrics

(Verse 1) Time travels, limelight unravels the game like a Scrabble session Glad I'm a believer, yo I do this thing for life - on wax or in my own progression Quote without expression, “I survive the either and the either” Play the quarterback and pa** to the receivers Next development, the settling of superficialities No need to question what the future holds for me and mine, ‘cause In time I'll find the fruit of faith - that's my reality, so When the sun and stars collapse, perhaps they will believe What in the past they simply couldn't put in focus Packing the truth up in the booth beyond the soundwaves Slaves laugh now, but at that time they'll want to quote us, but then I'll pop on Junior singing “Too Late, Baby, Bye Bye” Why try acknowledging the facts formerly mentioned, it's Straight to detention while I follow my predestiny, giving the best in me Hope it's within your comprehension, so just (Hook) Stop, sit, think, take a second to Consider all the things you are connected to (Checking me?) I'm checking you and simply try to see What is it keeping you living this final fantasy Your j**els (popularity)? Your bank (dollar bill, y'all)? Your friends (here today and gone today, so get your fill, y'all)? I want each and every woman and man to see Beyond this thing we call “life” - the final fantasy (Verse 2) Hypocrisy's the policy when brother's holler, “see me rhyme Yo give me time, while I drop a dime up in the cypher...” But they will find that in due time the crowd won't tolerate no rhymes That cannot climb without a ladder, kid, you're not MacGuyver The ups and downs, the back and forth is like a see-saw If you see what I saw, you'd know this wasn't easy Cats see the cake before they think about ingredients But that mentality's played like “nizzle” and “forsheezy” Closing your eyes, hoping to make your daily wages These pages of dull monotony are so tyrannosaurus But look at how the vast majority is taking us Making us look like fossils of the ones that came before us (that ain't right) We're living in this age of the microwave, like “Do it for me and do it now” is the perception But slow and steady wins the race, So Imma keep my pace And spray this message as my mace against deception, so just (hook) (Verse 3) It's so amazing, watching people making their way in the world today It's taking everything they got Trapped and locked in this paradox of what they feel But what's real when the more ice you get you're hot? The definition of understanding is no longer what you know But what your eyes are perceiving Personal defenses laced with pretense and Not paralleling what a brother believes in Those who test the limitations of the ma**es supercede the fascists And soon become the martyrs Those who fall are the ones who heed the protocol And never develop into higher top charters But even those as the fallen ones are chosen And understand the head ones will soon become the tail Because they bow to the here and now, forsaking the vow of the veil Forever's the full scale, my man, so just...
