[Prevail]
Before I fade to black in the shaded shack,
In a box with handles and my family in back,
I will have achieved my life in leaves, of paper, that kept me safer than hangin with theives.
I`ve been in the big house, but not for long,
But long enough to know it`s hard to make songs,
I played my cards and kept movin along,
Hooked up with Madchild and righted my wrongs,
You don`t continue with circles, we generate light,
So three hundred and sixty five days I study and write,
I bloody the mic and will continue to learn,
From the best in the world until the night I burn.
I fought for my turn, you can check my gloves,
We both have inkpads covered with blood and scabs,
I love what I have but I will progress,
And I do every day when I take my first step,
It`s all about Breath, when it`s done I`m gone,
And death is a pawn in a game on a board of which I`m on.
I`ve had a sword in my palm from the very first tracks,
That were cut, mastered, and released under battleaxe.
It`s nice to know that I`ve been a part of something reversal,
Camouflage to Consumption.
[Chorus:]
Yo it`s funny how time flies,
Life has lows and highs,
And that`s no surprise.
Come along for the ride,
Can you handle the drive?
Act on it, `cause life can flash before your eyes.
Time flies, lows and highs, and that`s no surprise,
Come along for the ride, can you handle the drive?
Act on it, `cause life can flash before your eyes.
[Madchild:]
Before I`m laid to rest, I`ma do my best,
`Cause the biggest death threat is too many regrets.
And I ain`t goin out like I wonder what woulda happened,
If I`d never given up,
Kept on rappin.- Send " Act On It" Ringtone to your Cell
