Transcendent - Ride On lyrics

[Verse 1] Screw a destiny, I'm making my own plans And no man will stand between me and my chose path I catch heat from these people with no fans Stay frosty with a middle finger from both hands Flipping scripts, never stick to the program That's why you'll never see me with a pit and my own dance I'll never quit…chill a bit? There is no chance Got no gifts; minus the training there is no Trans I've worked hard, spent hours with the mouse and keys Turned into a powerhouse and I'm not about to leave If you're doubting me, line up with the rest of ‘em It's not co*ky when I say I'll rock it with the best of ‘em Heading to the top, cosigns are not needed Rhyme scheming til their dome's blown and they stop breathing I've got demons and hell is where they're taking me But I face them every day; they're basically creating me [Chorus] If you're ever told that you ain't good enough Tell that em' get another, ride on (What we tell em?) Ride on to another, ride on (What we tell em?) Ride on to another, ride on [2x] [Verse 2 – 12 bars] I've been laughed at, put down, and ridiculed Since I started spitting, which was when I finished middle school I treat it as an unwritten rule If you're pushing hard enough for something, you best expect a bit of pull People tend to criticize what they can't accomplish Due to lack of minds or of spines; I'm man that's honest Don't give a damn ‘bout a handful of rap piranhas Never sleeping with you fishes; go ahead and grab pajamas I know I'll never put the hate to bed So I use it as a way to motivate instead While you're sitting latent, I'm anxious for the days ahead Music's in my blood so I'll leave the planet painted red [Chorus] [Verse 3 – 16 bars] To get anything in life, there's only two things required You have to be persistent, have to have desire Fire burning in your stomach, climbing til you hit the summit Dire urge to earn it til you got it or you kick the bucket Screw excuses, they're useless You can find comfort in your reasons not to do it but the truth is “Blood, sweat, and tears” is in no way hyperbolic Cost of victory goes beyond what's inside your wallet It's paid for in all the hours that you spent progressing Every sk**, every lesson a return on your investment
You can quit when someone says it can't be done Or suffer through the troubles until you become a champion So when you're told to abandon what you're aiming for Know you're in control, not your family, your neighbors or Anyone surrounding you; own your choices in the end Having trouble getting there? Well, may I recommend that… [Chorus]
