[Verse 1: Sweetness]
The truth is, I can die today
People will cry for a day
Then get on with their lives
The purpose of life, it's just who survives
And when it all falls down, who can thrive
My coming of age was inspiration from my top five
Sometimes I wish life was as simple as good versus bad guys
Because the good are really the bad in disguise
And the bad sometimes are the good with a couple of crimes
And I just wish life to the people who have already died
Wished I could have said a couple of goodbyes
But instead it was teary eyes, frustration like 9 to 5's
Nowadays, it seems like the good ones go in the worst ways
Mid life crisis but only in my teenage days
The age of 21, not celebrating because it's the first one
But rather celebrating the years that go by, losing the choices of what to become
After all, I always did think that people are gifts that we only see as To's and From's
[Verse 2: J Lee]
[Verse 3: Sweetness]
They say I'm in the hot seat, more like heated leather
Just kickin back, getting used to all the pressure
No need to rid
Tellin' my friends and family to not make the same mistakes that I did
My hall of fame dreams could have gotten ruined like Pete Rose placing bids
America & all your institutions; you can keep your awards
My family will keep being the first to the call of duty for all your wars
The snakes moving through the Garden of Eden
I go St. Patrick, pin me with the Medal of Freedom
The Medal of Honor to my parents for always being there since the start
My teenage years, tack on a purple heart
For all the teachers that said I would never make it
For all my bosses who thought I always faked it
All the applications that never made it past the trash
Phone calls and texts that never got answered back
But to realize the bigger picture sometimes you just gotta step back
This Thunderous movement, ain't no stopping the boy like Kevin Durant on the attack
[Verse 4: J Lee]
[Verse 5: Sweetness]
Life, I've been a student to the real definition
Most times it was just me & my ambition
Soul searching for something missin'
Asking questions to my statements like what's the mission
Who's still keeping the faith in a culture moving away from religion
But I still got the spiritual verses for everyone caught in that position
Funny how someone can live their lives based off another's opinion
Music is my freedom of speech, rest in peace to the television
And rest in peace to all the exposure
I do this for the closure
My dreams I can feel ‘em getting a little closer
The women the boy used to think about, waking up and I just tell them to move over
Because I stay faithful to the music, and the only reason she tied the knot
Is because she love me for everything I am, and for everything I'm not
