yo the moment is now, time to get it now or never
it's finally in arms reach, solid like its concrete
i used to dream about this as a kid but now it's actually happenin
sat around waitin now it's time to get up
i put my hands together like so, for this endeavor
givin it up and recognizing it's not me in control
i feel it deep in my soul, that he's redeemin my soul
so every word became my weapon never needed that beretta 9
my sixteens became my M-16's,
i let the pen ink leak to reach the weak, can u feel me?
i can walk on water, even run if i wanted
cuz it's all about the one you walkin towards man i promise
i take my gift and makeshift it, i may shift it again
cuz in the end the goal is to eliminate distance
what is life witout risk, when u given a chance u betta snatch it up quick, don't blink
*i say, if hiphop is the gift that i'm(ur) given
i say, hiphop is the life that i'm(ur) livin
it's a 100 percent, no turning back
i've(u) been waitin for my(ur) chance but i see it now
let's live.
i'm a no one reachin out to everyone
thinkin back to '01 tryin to get my flow on point
i said no more at one point, but nothin else to hold on to
then my calling seemed clear and made a bold choice
history's a rated R movie still running
some characters just hate it, others like it or they love it
as days pass, scenes constantly change direction
some are lucky. i heard they get to meet the real director
the day came i met him and the plot started changin
my character was different and my script was rearranged
switched movie genres from a boring one to action
total satisfaction in the passion that he gave
he has plans to change the role of every character
the lost finds purpose, the blind finds sight. it's a matter of
trust and acceptance when you finally get to meet him, it's key
now it brings us back to the current scene
