lyrics

From a head full of pressure rests the senses that I clutch
The message on the pavement forms the fences that I jump
I got touched by a desire for God to ignite a change
Caught a rush of zeal from the life in my veins

This was written with two toothpicks in wet cement
This new script is a blueprint for all the tall tenements
I got told, "cut the music, dude," and “simply let it vent”
Little did they know, though, I'm the Rubik's Cube President
So, represent!
It’s evident the more you give to Jehovah: the bigger the gain
So, go figure my aim should be to trigger the brain like any singer in pain
Yet my life ain't nothin' but sunshine - no dumb punchline
I run by, thus my Love sighs, I must fly come crunch-time
As I rode along I told my God, "here I am, send me!"
"I can break the chains of fear of man and get set free!"
See, I’ll walk the longest road, talk the strongest code, flock with honest folk
Spot the blossoms’ growth, God had brought this ode
He taught us to dodge the odd pothole and block a bomb thrown
Sought to watch for lost souls, trot atop hot coals
I know that God knows, he saw those who got gold
And I got platinum without a song sold
No mistake, this mixtape did bake for ten years
This lengthy tenure was spent here like the six days
Creatin’ sick waves ‘till my wrist ached and the pen seared the notebook
And with that said dear, if kids praise, “oh look, you did great…”
Well, it’d all be worth it
But I’m uncertain and nervous
And hey, before we learn, the page of the story turns
Will the rage and blame and pain make any glory earned?
Well, what a sorry nerd
Please ignore these words…

But listen:
From a head full of pressure rests the senses that I clutch
The message on the pavement forms the fences that I jump
I got touched by a desire to ensure what’s golden glows
I promise I'll smile, even when the cold wind blows
