[Verse 1: RKZ]
I call this Persistence, like I'm at my life's end
Call this determination, never need that life again
Now I know I, dealt with the hardships
You don't know the half of it
Never aired my life outside man, I always looked after it
Kept it all beneath like I was buried in a coffin
Now this world it ain't your life
It's just a world that you get lost in
People only tell you what they think you need to hear
But you don't live for them, live for yourself
They'll disappear and it goes..
[Pre: Shawn/RKZ]
Well you know I follow my heart since day
And I ain't ever gonna change
They say nothing gold can stay, but we're still here
[Chorus: RKZ/Shawn]
You know I've been walking alone for too long
Searching for something, I've been feeling so strong
I scream, I know, I'm almost there now
I won't give up on you
[Verse 2: RKZ]
I call this Persistence, never need to fight again
Made it to the end like I was born to see the light again
Had it Soul-defined again, rhyme so I could find myself
Then I went and did it, now we're sitting sharing endless gems
How life is incredible, just gotta let it breathe though..
Three or four times I discovered we are equal
Not you and I, I mean us and the universe
We are all the same, we just need to let that be so..
[Pre: RKZ]
We try, we try to define ourselves but
We don't excel ourselves until we're back
Against the wall. And I know
We're Universal Minds
[Chorus]
