[Verse 1]
If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd go back to '89 where I first learned to rhyme
Before committing crimes in the inner city tribe
Yo I stayed in KY where I was afraid to aim high
I designed a rap state of mind, cla**mates hated mine
Saying I was wack, read between the lines, I would reach down
Put some love in it cause it's coming (from your heart)
I take it serious with this art
See I'm the kind of [?] to move up
Elevating as I rock steady, my job's heavy
From all these wannabe caught up in the time
Caught up in a trend but I'm a trend setter
The [?]
There's rap clowns in [?]
The wack flow disease is contagious, they don't know the time
My rhymes 45-percentered by the Lord Divine
[Hook]
My mission is to keep (turning) every single bad (time)
Into something good, (turn) the lights on
(Time) to show my neighborhood, (turn) d**h into life
(Time) traveling with the light, (turn) the light's on
(Time) to move something, it's transforming
(Time) to stop warring, (time) to stop crying
(Time) to start forming then come and join it
And start a fire then walk through it
[Verse 2]
Rhyme traveling, thoughts are battling
To sprawl out when I fall out with the adversary
[?] pattering, spinning like Saturn
It's time for me to shine like something out of the ordinary
As soon as your song come on the radio, I'm turning
Beef is real, what are these little kids learning?
If you could see what I'm discerning
You'd be like "it's time to speak life and and keep it right"
Too many people wanna keep it real
They don't know they turning they backs on they families
And they hood, we should be embarra**ed
Cause we live in a perilous time
There's cats getting locked up and they shrug
But some don't know no better, they out to get the cheddar
Turning their best friends into arch rivals
I go back to the future just to parley with Doc
It's time to put all that [?] rap to a stop like
[Hook]
My mission is to keep (turning) every single bad (time)
Into something good, (turn) the lights on
(Time) to show my neighborhood, (turn) d**h into life
(Time) traveling with the light, (turn) the light's on
(Time) to move something, it's transforming
(Time) to stop warring, (time) to stop crying
(Time) to start forming then come and join it
And start a fire then walk through it
[Verse 3]
Your hardwired punchlines like Vitamin MC
Look your whole composition malnutrition
See I'm a style inventer invented before He ascended
He mentioned that souls would be saved just by listening
Control the crowd like the golden child when I dump
The kind that I invested in, this is worth more than Trump
Money success no guessing long as it's coming from your heart
And s**er emcees don't want a part like
There's clones coming from the rap factory
Turning the industry sour whacking up the beats
Overnight celebrities heavily saturate the game
Time to take it back in His name and show these lames
How to walk without platinum chains and diamond rings
Turn your skin green, Cream of Beats is my creatine
Your evil deeds won't last, you're running out of time
Hazard with the battle rhymes, hit you like it's hammer time
[Hook]
My mission is to keep (turning) every single bad (time)
Into something good, (turn) the lights on
(Time) to show my neighborhood, (turn) d**h into life
(Time) traveling with the light, (turn) the light's on
(Time) to move something, it's transforming
(Time) to stop warring, (time) to stop crying
(Time) to start forming then come and join it
And start a fire then walk through it
