{It's yours}
Whose world is this?
(The world is yours, the world is yours)
It's mine, it's mine, it's mine; whose world is this?
It's mine, it's mine, it's mine; whose world is this?
(The world is yours, the world is yours)
It's mine, it's mine, it's mine; whose world is this?
[Verse 1: Dolly Lama]
It's your world and I'm just livin' in it
When I'm workin' with wood, got to be decisive
Got to know what I'm doin' and how I'm goin' to do it
Even though I don't know what's goin' to happen
That a life lesson I learned from a good friend
No Turnin' back when it comes to wood carvin'
Got to adapt when accidents hap
That's when creativity kicks in, yeah
I had to figure out how to fix it
That's when survival instincts kicked it
Plannin' out all my options
Until I got the best of it

[Verse 2: Dolly Lama]
It's your world and I'm just livin' in it
That's why I always try to stay extra positive
And go with the flow, ride on the open road
Cause cuttin' with the grain is important
If you rock steady, and grow like trees
Eventually you'll start to bare some leaves
Steez, livin' wit style and ease
Smell the salt blowin' in the sea breeze
My style's smooth, sanded to 120
Stronger than wood glue, haha that's funny
But lets get serious, sike that hilarious
My best rhymes are made when I'm feelin' it
Get your koa wood and monkey pod
And get crafty like Sean Ross
The true boss, who's gettin' lost
Makin' sculptures at the wood shop

[Interview 1: S.R.]
You have to be decisive, you can't say
“Oh lets try this, lets do this, maybe this will work,”
You have to say
“This is what I'm doing and I'm going to do it”
You might not know what's going to happen, but
You have to be sure as hell that's what your going to do
Cause you can't make a cut and unmake a cut
It's you make a cut and that's it
There's no turning back, its all or nothing kind of medium
Especially carving, once you carve it out
I mean, every hit that you make is a permanent scar
Or is a permanent alteration of that material

[Breakdown]
[Interview 2: S.R.]
There's no going back, it's like a all in kind of thing
You go in, and that's what your doing
You can then, what then happens
Is that when you make a mistake
And you always make a mistake
Nobody ever doesn't make a mistake haha
Something happens, something clicks, you know?
It's like you have to figure out how to fix it
And that when true creation in my mind comes out of
