Everyday is a new day
I'm thankful for every breath I take I won't take it for granted So I learn from my mistakes It's beyond my control sometimes it's best to let go Whatever happens in this lifetime So I trust in love You have given me peace of mind I I feel so alive for the very first time I can't deny you I feel so alive I I feel so alive for the very first time And I think I can fly Sunshine upon my face A new song for me to sing Tell the world how I feel inside Even though it might cost me everything Now that I know this so beyond I can't hold this I can never turn my back away Now that I've seen you I can never look away I I feel so alive for the very first time I can't deny you I feel so alive I I feel so alive for the very first time And I think I can fly Now that I know you I could never turn my back away Now that I see you I could never look away Now that I know you I could never turn my back away Now that I see you I believe no matter what they say I I feel so alive for the very first time I can't deny you I feel so alive I I feel so alive for the very first time And I think I can fly I I feel so alive for the very first time And I think I can fly I I feel so alive for the very first time And I think I can fly And I think I can fly And I think I can fly And I think I can fly |

I never knew that a kid like me
Could take his mic around the world and flash the big S.D. And rock the masses, from Madrid to Calabassas Tijuana, Mexico, bootleg demos in Tokyo They know me though, 'cause I be puttin' in work Commit my life to rebirth, well respected, 'cause that's my word I'm sure you heard, about a new sound going around She might have left my hood, but she was born in my town *You didn't know, thought we was new on the scene Well, it's alright! It's alright! I know you know, I see you smiling at me Well, it's alright! It's alright! **Boom! Here comes the Boom! Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South Boom! Here comes the Boom! Ready or not, How you like me now? (I said) We rep. the South, so what you talking about I'm not running off my mouth, I know this without a doubt 'Cause if you know these streets, then these streets know you When it's time to handle business, then you know what to do (what to do) Me and my crew, we stay true, old skool or new Many were called, but the chosen are few (we are few) We rise to the top, what you want? Just in case you forgot Rush the stage, grab my mic, show me what you got * Repeat ** Repeat Is that all you got? haha I'll take your best shot. Is that all you got? oh I'll take your best shot. Is that all you got? (I'll take your best shot) (x3) I'll take your best shot, I'll take your best shot! Is that all you got? (Well, it's alright! It's alright!) I'll take your best shot!

Last day of the rest of my life
I wish I would've known Cause I didn't kiss my mama goodbye I didn't tell her that I loved her and how much I care Or thank my pops for all the talks And all the wisdom he shared Unaware, I just did what I always do Everyday, the same routine Before I skate off to school But who knew that this day wasn't like the rest Instead of taking a test I took two to the chest Call me blind, but I didn't see it coming Everybody was running But I couldn't hear nothing Except gun blasts, it happened so fast I don't really know this kid Even though I sit by him in class Maybe this kid was reaching out for love Or maybe for a moment He forgot who he was Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged Whatever it was I know it's because *[chorus] We are, We are, the youth of the nation Little Suzy, she was only twelve She was given the world With every chance to excel Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell She might act kind of proud But no respect for herself She finds love in all the wrong places The same situations Just different faces Changed up her pace since her daddy left her Too bad he never told her She deserved much better Johnny boy always played the fool He broke all the rules So you would think he was cool He was never really one of the guys No matter how hard he tried Often thought of suicide It's kind of hard when you ain't got no friends He put his life to an end They might remember him then You cross the line and there's no turning back Told the world how he felt With the sound of a gat *[repeat] Who's to blame for the lives that tragedies claim No matter what you say It don't take away the pain That I feel inside, I'm tired of all the lies Don't nobody know why It's the blind leading the blind I guess that's the way the story goes Will it ever make sense Somebody's got to know There's got to be more to life than this There's got to be more to everything I thought exists **[repeat] |

I wonder how clear it must look from there to here
No obstruction, this selfish corruption All in this atmosphere No fear, less tears, only time to catch my breath I fail to inhale Your love constricts my chest Confusion blinded me, mental and physically And it’s because of you that now I can see So now can I run? I follow the Son and ride on to Zion And dance this last song of freedom But only time will tell, if it’s truly for real Can’t change your mind, all I know this is what I feel Whether I’m wrong or right, please keep my life in sight And never take you eyes off me *As I look up to the sky today Well I can see you looking down on me It brings a smile to my face again Satellite It’s truly one of a kind, like star shine, beyond night time, are you there My eyes stare to find, just what’s behind this blind notion of mine, is it genuine Cause sometimes, it plays tricks with my mind, some call it asinine But it’s like love or hate, now is that real or fake? Cause it’s a real thin line, but that’s your choice to make The question at hand, help me understand, is this your plan? I think I can, can I think, then I think I can Because I won’t break (nah), and I won’t shake (nah) With lifted hands to this Man (Jah), I’ll stand in faith I’ll make it through, my trust in you Close my eyes, make a wish, kiss the sky Hey there…I see you * Repeat |

Skillfully tested, rhythmically possessed with rhymes
And when it was time, Jah gave me the mic after he blessed it He said share the loving, prepare them for the Second Coming Beware of the false prophets, because they got my people bugg'n Put on the full armor, cause you know these fools they're gonna wanna Talk behind your back, but stay away from the drama You know that I'm gonna keep you safe inside the palm of my hand Cause you the man and that's word to your mama So give it to 'em, it's themselves that they're fool'n Gotta head of the game too quick, what they lack is ol' school'n You know who's who, whether or not I'm talking to your crew It's up to you to keep it true, nuff respect due. *Dem test me crew, but dem can't get with this Dem all the same, talking wickedness (nonsense ?2nd time) Your styles been played, and I'm already sick of it Them so ridiculous, them so ridiculous. * Repeat Original Rude Boy, we bring the styles Ain뭪 heard this in a while, check the stats, review my profile They dime a dozen, can't understand why all the fuss'n Known for talking loud but they really saying nothing With every word you poison my mental concept Negative be the topic, somebody's got to stop it And clear your mind and continue to come alive And he love, we love, bring it back, come, rewind. * Repeat... |

I message, written in rhyme, prophetic
Teachers amongst the skeptics and guiding the misdirected Infected with their lies and their alibis With their third eye blind, out of line, they try to prophesy I and I unfold the mysteries told From the futuristic realms to the days of old Make straight through the path of the one voice calling Truth shines, back again two times in the Second Coming *I am the Messenjah x 4 **This I pledge, and I’ll take it to my death I’ll lay my life down for you and die over again I and I, I’m not ashamed of the Most High Even if I die tonight, if I die tonight This I pledge, and I’ll take it to my death You can bet your life on my words and everything I said You can’t take away my love for this sacrifice Even if I die tonight, if I die tonight True king descendant, master to the apprentice Pleased to release and reveal in me His presence Forever blessed, I believe if Jah said it The word of life came alive in the scriptures – I read it All hail, we prevail, the Tribes of Israel, flow through ya We pursue the conquering lion of the Tribe of Judah Don’t let ‘em fool ya, before this, the foolish get rushed So don’t slop, you never knew us * Repeat ** Repeat |

So much to say so little time for me to explain the way I feel
You only see things the way you want to see them It makes sense to you all these things you do You got it all figured out while everyone is confused How do you do it? In your mind I'm just blind You're right all of the time If I think for myself, I guess I'm way out of line I'm not who you are I'm so sorry I can't do anything right You don't know me, stay out of my life Kick me while I'm down, I want you to I can't be like you Don't want to be like you No matter what I do it's never good enough I give all that is me; still it's never enough So, why try? I give up. What does it feel like to be in you shoes And walk over everyone like you do? Tear me down again, I want you to. You're lovely, so beautiful You're perfect in every way. Your interior rusted. I'm so disgusted Can't trust it. You're busted. |

I believe that this world believes in love (x2)
We might never really agree On anything about the lives we live Between you and me. So differently. We don’t always see things the same We should agree to disagree If we meet at love we can work it out I believe you and I will overcome I believe you and I believe in love Whether you think I’m so confused Or if you feel the way I do So don’t give in to this hate within Living in this world of pain Don’t let it bring you down The world is a ghetto I believe that this world believes in love I believe you and I believe in love |

Evil eyes behind their smiles
You swallow it up when sincerity lies Lock me up, label me “dangerous” files Fear of the unknown, so scared of my style Alert the press and address the states of emergency We the crew you love to hate First mistake, you were never ready Dance with the dead, better be ten times more deadly This is me, I’m always the same Virus in the system, crash the mainframe Uprise, now fall in line Roll with the pack or get left behind *“It’s a Masterpiece Conspiracy” I’d rather hear it from you than be lied to Call it what it is like the heathens do Red lights of betrayal, deceived again Exposed by the light, true colors ascend Take down the regime, break the trend Bumrushed by your peers and your so-called friends Keep your people tight, watch your enemies close Trust what you know, soon enough they’ll choke Where were you when we started this thing? You weren’t around, this ain’t yours to claim You’ll never take what’s been given to us Wipe that smile off your face and that look of disgust Uprise, now fall in line Roll with the pack, or get left behind * Repeat Liar, deceiver, betrayer, back stabber * Repeat |

Time goes by and God knows I try to carry on with life
Decide not to hide feelings inside, even though they hurt Sometimes, I forget to remember you It's easy to lock away the pains, don't want to relive it through But I stay strong, you taught me how to move on in this world I married my sweetheart, even got a little baby girl I wish you could see her, I swear she looks just like you If you can hear me, show me a sign, please send her a butterfly or two *I'm thinking about forever (missing you) I know you're so much better (we made it through) Now I know what it means to live for someone else To give up yourself Things have changed, at times it gets kind of strange Your love remains the same Do I make you proud? Mama, can you see me now? Whatever is good in me is because you showed me how to take love by the hand And so now I can share you with my baby So that she can understand * Repeat I'm thinking about forever (missing you) I know you're so much better (we made it through) I'm thinking about forever (missing you) I'm tripping on whatever (hearing you) |

You're not who they say you are
They made you the enemy (CHRIST-Jah flesh; CHRIST-Light within; CHRIST- Beginning and the end) Taken something so beautiful Painted a new picture that makes me sick (CHRIST-Witness; CHRIST-Living one; CHRIST-First and the last) Feed our minds confusion Sweeten the taste of pollution. (CHRIST-Word life; CHRIST-Resurrect; CHRIST-Everlasting Jah) *Some people call you father Maybe you could set me free These people hate each other But you've always been there for me I refuse to be like you Without life, empty, caving in (CHRIST-Jah flesh; CHRIST-Light within; CHRIST- Beginning and the end) I surrender, giving up all that is me Yielding to you (CHRIST-Witness; CHRIST-Living one; CHRIST-First and the last) Shape me in my brokeness Empower me forever (CHRIST-Word life; CHRIST-Resurrect; CHRIST-Everlasting Jah) * Repeat I know you will complete this work started in me I need you more than ever now that I know who you are I know you will complete this work started in me I need you more than ever now that I've come so far |
