[Verse 1: Kid Abstrakt]
I stay ahead of my time, you can follow the leader
I'm lookin' up to the skies, I always been a dreamer
I take a deep breather, despite my parent's pressure
It's a pleasure to be under the Cali weather
Making a move at a time, but yo we shootin' far
And we listening to Tribe and some Gang Star
It's nothing but the raw, some sh** that you can feel
We take it back for the heads that's keepin' it real
It's just another day, searching for a better pay
No regrets, not thinkin' 'bout my past mistakes
Cause to play the game you gotta find your motivation
Stay ahead of competition, I know I'll make it
Never quit, cause success is what I predict
How you gon' take a step, and haven't even laced the kicks?
I stay prepared for whatever's next in store
I'm moving just a step, but I'm still ahead of your
[Hook: Aretha Franklin]
Only one step ahead of your love
[Verse 2: Predominance]
One small step for mankind, one giant leap for fat rhymes
I got a critical case of cranium calculation
I keep all my thoughts connected
Quick to keep my destination
Operation: our day-to-day, human occupations
I know it ain't a race, but I'm the first to lose my patience
I need to find relation, try different combinations
Go do this, go do that
Now, I don't know, but they just
Think that they wiser, cause their sk** look ill like raisins
I'm affiliated with an underground world, not the Masons
Not the category, probably something more historical, metaphorical, time warp, dinosaur-ical
Was that even a word? well f** it I'll still use it though
I like to have a good time, but never take me as a joke
My vocab don't exist, go ahead laugh, bruh
But one day it will, I'm one step ahead of ya
[Hook]
