[Intro & Verse 1: B.g. Bene]
You know, it's just what I've been
Saying, like
There's just some people in this world
Trying to take their shot
But they keep telling themselves
That they're gone miss it, you know?
But this time it ain't gone be me, though…
Paint a picture youngin' - let em see this for real though
I used to aim to shoot, now I'm shooting for aim
‘Cause all that's left in this life I lead -
Missing more shots - Yeah, I'm shooting more jumpers
I'm on the lookout, evading my own fears
And it feels kind of joyless but the opportunities were here
To miss or to make em
So what you're really going up against this whole time
Just an outline of pessimism
But I only got so many shots
So I just rushed or dumped em all
I always was that quiet brother lingering in my dorm
Just wait until I get out of that dorm..
I'm on the hunt for regaining some of my f**ing conscience
That I took away myself - to learn for the future
F-society - am I on my own?
Please tell me I'm reaching for something more like, ey
[Hook]
Who are you to tell me what it's all about?
Not alone just the only one to figure out
What's real and what's not - one life, one shot
Don't tell me that you've heard it all before
Even if so, let me tell you once more
I'm here to stay and I won't budge
This is my life and this is my shot
[Verse 2: Silas]
And I'ma take it, I'ma I'ma I'ma take it
And I'ma make it, ah hell yeah i'll make it
I don't care what you tell me cause this is me
And I'ma do what i think best ‘cause I am free
Free of all the pettiness and the nonsense
Free of all your silly games and free of the past tense
Because today is a present, it's a gift
I know who I am and that's just pure bliss
Self-defined, me and him till the end of time
Only God can judge - me and my rhymes
So I pick up the pen, even though I can't write my sins away
I know they're not here to stay, huh
But i'm going places if you're taking me
I can do all things cause you strengthen me
So I could care less what the people say
‘Cause like Mr. West - I got it all day
[Hook]
Who are you to tell me what it's all about?
Not alone just the only one to figure out
What's real and what's not - one life, one shot
Don't tell me that you've heard it all before
Even if so, let me tell you once more
I'm here to stay and I won't budge
This is my life and this is my shot
