This life is a long journey when your sitting on a gurney
My ambition keeps on turning
And I'm constantly learning
I am squirming to the top like a worm through the rocks
Not concerned with these germs i keep earning my spot
It gets lonely when your caught and stuck in a shell
Like a snail trying formulate a plan to prevail
And well, I leave a trail for the rest to follow
you say you have a heart yet your chest is hollow
Im like Apollo the god and the son of Zeus
Constructing melodies abroad sipping jungle juice
I have a lot on my head like a Russian moose
and im always breaking necks like a fuckin noose
I let loose with my vocabulary
and i carry a long blade cause cutting meat's a dying trade
I Used to fear death now its afraid of me
Im spitting bravery so savory cause it's been a long journey
Born and raised in the desert where the cactus grow.
My skin soaks up the sun like my lungs absorb the flow.
Cypher the wisdom like a needle on wax.
While you be breaking bread, I be breaking down fact.
Knowledge the roots and gain respect for the culture.
We living among a bunch of fuckin' snakes and vultures.
Their Starving for the light like a hip hop junkie searching for a mic.
This journey in life has more then one destination.
No time for stagnation.
Constantly creation while building a foundation.
If music is the soul like water brings life.
I plant jewels in these fools to cultivate the mind.
Exist in the future cuz the past is blind.
I said wake the fuck up or keep hitting the snooze.
Get your mind right or stay stuck like glue.
As I choose to sip from the fountain of youth.
