[Hook] I'm committed This is not a game for me to play Cuz there's many people usin' my music as an escape I'm committed This not a hobby or a phase Not a season of my life but this is every single day I'm committed And I'll admit it time will never wait Instead of sitting there wastin' my minutes' I got dreams to chase I'm committed And I don't have much money in the bank Because I spent every dollar I had, on this music thing I'm committed [Verse 1: Cole DeRuse] Nine years I've spent learning to rhyme clear I'm here, laziness is somethin' you won't find near Keep it away it'll lead me astray, I'm gonna to do what i need to obtain So many goals in my life that are brave, conquerin' my giant fears Like rockin' stages full of thousands of people Hoppin' on planes, flyin' through the clouds like an eagle Doing a world tour, speakin' truth, exposin' the evil Even makin' a bit of money doin' everything legal, uh But that won't happen if I do not learn to sacrifice (How much do you gotta give?) Everything, that's the price That's all those nights, I would write in my room Instead of goin' out, gettin' wasted and sleepin' til noon 'cause I'm committed I've only got so much time left, so many beats in my chest Pennies, nickels dimes left but I'ma spend it All on this music like I don't got a limit I'ma run this race and be the last one left sprintin' [Hook] I'm committed This is not a game for me to play Cuz there's many people usin' my music as an escape I'm committed This not a hobby or a phase Not a season of my life but this is every single day I'm committed And I'll admit it time will never wait Instead of sitting there wastin' my minutes' I got dreams to chase I'm committed And I don't have much money in the bank Because I spent every dollar I had, on this music thing I'm committed [Verse 2: Cole DeRuse] So committed some people must think I have a sickness Get this, I grip this like I'm throwin' discus Puttin' all I have into this music business I'm sorta like a dog chasin' his tail, my pursuit's relentless Some say to quit when you fail, but you fail when you quit And failure isn't, like jail or prison Until you resent rowin' when the sail has no wind That's why Usain Bolt excels and prevails in his sprints His work ethic is sick, and i hope to replicate it
Training so hard will never give up and will never give into the cynics I'm so driven, by this music thing that keeps on elevatin' Takin me higher I'll never get tired don't matter if you're never with it I'm committed, I've only got so much time left so many beats in my chest Pennies, nickels dimes left but I'ma spend it All on this music like I don't got a limit I'ma run this race and be the last one left sprintin' [Hook] I'm committed This is not a game for me to play Cuz there's many people usin' my music as an escape I'm committed This not a hobby or a phase Not a season of my life but this is every single day I'm committed And I'll admit it time will never wait Instead of sitting there wastin' my minutes' I got dreams to chase I'm committed And I don't have much money in the bank Because I spent every dollar I had, on this music thing I'm committed [Verse 3: Alyssa Marie] I'm so committed, don't get in the way Breakin' my stride's a game with your life that you never should play Won't hesitate to take whatever you say to make it a weapon And bury you with your own words already in vain, when every Step that I take is calculated, with a goal in mind Put in overtime for the sake of this fate I know is mine Don't rely on no one to do my work To reach the other side of this road I would move the earth Know there's nothing I would stop at, not 'til the time is gone I'm facin' forward, racin' toward the gate with blinders on It's been a rough ride, thank God that my sight was strong Cuz even through the darkest night I'd see the light of dawn And that would keep me goin', now I'm gettin' there The blood, sweat and tears are payin' off I know the end is here And that means a new beginning is near So whisper doubt into my ear, I'm too committed to care [Hook] I'm committed This is not a game for me to play Cuz there's many people usin' my music as an escape I'm committed This not a hobby or a phase Not a season of my life but this is every single day I'm committed And I'll admit it time will never wait Instead of sitting there wastin' my minutes' I got dreams to chase I'm committed And I don't have much money in the bank Because I spent every dollar I had, on this music thing I'm committed
