[Intro – Mike Tyson]
I already experienced um disappointments
I experienced grand success of high levels
And grand disappointments of really low natives right?
And um, In order to be great
You know what I mean?
You gotta be prepared to fail greatly as well
It's all about how you handle your failures
And I'm gonna handle my failures. …
Inscribed on the tomb at the catacombs
He without sin, cast the first stone
Only one condition
Don't live in a gla** home
[Verse 1 – M.I Abaga]
Never said I was perfect
I never said all was awesome
All I know is I'm worth it
All I know is that I'm God's son
I'm trying to pursue my purpose
I'm trying to bring home the lost ones
Spoke to Jesus this morning he told me proceed with caution
Told me there's many people with no truth inside em
He told me with no blemish still they crucified him
I said those people are sick should I euthanize em?
He said your in charge of what you see
You're the new Poseidon
Just try to do your best then try to do it better
Set aside a little cash
For those you know could use the cheddar
When the heat is on just lose your sweater
Yeah, cause when the vultures come they swoop together
Yeah, and so I gathered up my loses
Closed the leaky faucets
Never said it'll be easy in the fine prints
And I read the clauses
Everybody will receive the crosses
Even bosses
You cannot deceive the process
No matter how high
[Hook – Leon Else]
We all fall down
We all fall down
We all fall down
We all fall down
[Verse 2 – Poe]
Gravity's working harder now
Just to hold me down
Cause I can float away
My egos getting larger now
I'm feeling like a star
You should probably pure that lager now
How do I fill the shoes of Sean Carter
Now is what I'm asking
I've had the thoughts
Now is to to make it happen
Manage to charge the course
Now is to wake the captain
Tell him to head to shore
f** it I'll grab the oars
I'll put myself to the level where no one is currently rapping man
I'm sick of throwing punchlines
Instead of throwing life lines
Save yourself the trouble of keeping up
And everybody watching from the sidelines
I know you know is my time
Cause nothing done for love is worth giving up
I've evened up the odds man
I've given this my all man
I even brought my squad man
Because a prayer
That's just a story for the gods man
And if we all fall we all fall then
No matter how high
[Hook – Leon Else]
We all fall down
We all fall down
We all fall down
We all fall down
[Interlude – Mike Tyson & Leon Else]
Life
(Because I'm still on life on life terms
I try the best of my ability)
Don't be scared
(Life has ups and downs anybody hard times can fall upon anybody)
Close your eyes now
(If I won a Nobel Peace Prize still Imma have to deal with life on life's terms)
As we wait
(And be whatever I wanna be, I have no gla** ceilings in my world
[Verse 3 – M.I Abaga]
Number one question
Is why was M.I missing
Well for like a decade
I've been on a mission pushing
Trying to raise this hip hop music
Trying put it in position
All the n***as I was with they told me nobody would listen
Imagine running against the green
Pursuing vision
I guess my feet were tired so soon as I found a cushion
Had to take a breather
I should've asked permission
Flow is still sick tho this rappers are re remission
Yeah, let em know they should get some ammunition
I'm back to schooling rappers
Better ready your tuition
Cullinary art I'm so experienced in the kitchen
It's gonna be hard to eat now cause M.I is competition
Curtains start to open
It's the end of intermission
I heard that most of y'all were dissing
But life will soon impart to all you silly n***as wisdom
Gravity is not a superstition
No matter how high
[Hook / Outro – Leon Else]
We all fall down
We all fall down
We all fall down
We all fall down
