GIVE IT A SHOT Verse 1 Everybody thought the plane crashed, let em know from the gate (gate) I just arrived a little late (wait) I know what time it is, it's way past due Never thought I left til I saw what I came back to Been in the clouds tryna make it out this grey point of view To see a brighter day and flip a coin into 2 Feeling like i'm wasting time, cause every time I think i'm at the finish line I wake up from that state of mind Daydreaming back upon my grind I just wanna touch the "paper" so it's only natural I "draw" this line I had to break the rules But god knows that i've payed for it every day on the way to paying deuce So pay a lil respect and you might just get it back Don't judge the book and overlook before you've read the facts Just cause I ain't been around doesn't mean I slept It only means that i've been down going through some sh** Chorus Some things might change, and, some things might not One things for certain, you never know if you don't give it a shot (u gotta give it a shot) Some days it rains, til one, one day it i'll stop Then u, gotta keep on searching, if you wanna find the way to the top Gotta give it a shot Verse 2 Somebody told me son don't jump if u can't see the bottom f** it then i'm diving I ain't tryna be the guy working a nine to five And all I did before retiring was surviving I had it up to here feeling like it's all a front Stressing over some career that I don't probably even want Watching all of my peers tryna cope with the pressure Drowning under the surface hoping to find a treasure Look at the sky every once in a while Arms to short to box but i'm punching the clouds (wow) And u ain't even gotta get the metaphor To understand the message and recognize what i'm heading for With a bag of experience and a stack of money No matter what destinies planned for me, life's a journey Like walking on railway tracks Promise and swear to myself to never look back because Chorus Verse 3 Looking for that gold laying up in that pot At least I can say that I gave it a shot I made it this far why change it and stop? Instead i'm picking up the pace while i'm racing the clock Tic toc like my wrist watch conversating Get gwop right quick fast, accelerating That's just thoughts in my mind speaking out loud If they've been trapped in the past i'm reaching out now With no acting i'm reporting this live Give u that feeling of being here, or just walking on by Hope the camera don't die, battery low It's just another day in the life, Reality Show!
