Fearless to afraid to courageous
Grateful for the struggles they who make us
Beautiful warriors from a ugly place
Raise your weapon wield your shield take the mask off your face
[Verse 1: Mecca Rebell]
What I say may spark a light
But that depends how wide your perspective is
Open to new ideas or shut tight?
Hope it spreads like wildfire, we need a renewal soon or we 'bout to expire
Am I preachin' to the choir?
Even if I am I'll take my chances
Without risk without spontaneity life is cancerous
Really all life is is just a poor prognosis
Which inevitably ends with rigamortis so before this
Do what's important to you f** the unnecessary stress lose the meaningless
Say it with your chest 'I am worthy' yes don't care 'bout being the best just a better me
True definition of being free
I like how 2Pac said it you feel me? No better way to live your life than to live how you want do it
Even when they call you stupid, go do it, word of advice, just don't be stupid
How 'bout this start by stabbing yourself in the heart with the arrow of cupid
Thank me later takes time to transition like a retro crossfader
Life is too short to be doin' something soul draining
Conduct your soul train as you pave the tracks to whatever you feel to the marrows your aim
With this game, called life, that's right
Chorus
Listen listen listen closely -
In honest silence you could hear your heart whisper
Write your write your write your write your story
If doin' it right could call your soul a whistler
From fearless to full of fear
We were taught conformity and blind obedience through the years
“Ignore your inner voice” the programmer says
Too bad the voice bellowed a war cry “I'm gon' live my way!”
Robot learnin' to be human again
'Til it realized it was the programmer from the beginnin'
When I do with my instincts doors open
Where iron walls stand these sounds the token
I'm not serious nor am I jokin'
I'm just hopin'
[Verse 2: Mecca Rebell]
This song may spark a flash but when you experience for yourself
It envelopes the landscape of your soul like wildfire
None can see it only the one feelin' it can see it
Call me human torch flames of ambition I bleed it
People ask “What's driving you? What motivates you?”
All good questions sometimes I ask myself that too
One of it's to prove those who doubted
Wanted me to fail
Burn out like hell
Fall to the bottom like dead whales
That I turned my dreams to achieved goals
You go as far as you want to go get on with the show
As I travel on this journey I'm my greatest friend and foe
Number two, that inner whisper I follow
Before it was so quiet I could barely hear it
Only way to clearly hear it was the artificial bullsh** I shear it
People, things, places, noun and verbs
Adjectives that with wisdom no longer hurt
Everyone has an idea of how others should live their lives but none of how to live their own
So do your own get your own make your own
I'm the king of myself my body the throne
Use it or lose it don't know what we got 'til it's gone
Standin' on the same ground but on different levels
Are you on the one you want to be on?
I try to make rights from my wrongs
The pain and struggles transformed to poems, so here it goes
Chorus

[Verse 3: Mecca Rebell]
As a child you felt you could take on the whole world
Immortal invincible wonder boy super girl
Then you grew up inside all of us there's another us that grows not by time but experience
So shout out to Pica**o every child's an artist trick is to still be one as we grow up, ya know?
As a result you did just as you were told and that inner voice you were told to ignore
Good thing though the soul never dies
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago...
Chinese Proverb
The second best time is now
