[Verse 1: Jay RUKAS] I remember coming home from school and rhyming Just to perfect my rhythm and timing My flow I'm still finding The words looking like planets aligning I'll by lying if I told you I ain't trying There's gonna be no mistakes, only one takes And I won't hesitate at home plate The lyrics are just intricate I conglomerate rhymes into different templates At a rate you can't relate to Watch it ooze out like gue, and get stuck like glue I got flows to pick and choose Don't need to introduce myself with a interlude There's something new, people are becoming lyrical If spitting the truth's a crime, then I'm a criminal With complex syllables [Hook][x2] Lets take it back to the days Where real hip-hop would get played And it mattered what you would say But, now it all seemed to fade But, now it all seemed to fade [Verse 2: Jay RUKAS] Its the retro theme I'm gonna reach my dreams by the age of eighteen Before anything released they said, "Don't forget me!" I haven't made it on a big screen or dropped a major CD Now y'all acknowledge me? That's crazy What if I wasn't a emcee, where would I be? There's too many questions to ask I'm not gonna vent on the past, it pa**ed Let's focus on the things we have At last, I'm lyrically indisputable through my pupal Forget working in a cubical, I wanted to make music Any other suggestions, I refused it I remember writing when I was booth-less Won't be roofless when I'm flowing ruthless I'm just flowing so ruthless [Hook][x2] Lets take it back to the days Where real hip-hop would get played And it mattered what you would say But, now it all seemed to fade But, now it all seemed to fade [Verse 3: Dexray Robinson] I remember being young back in the cla**room With notepads filled with some lyrical snafus It's just practice, the younger me was sorta like a savage Living on instinct, never was much for planning actions So when I started rapping, at first I tried to ration And say that I would put school first on the average And at first that was exactly what had happened But these cravings for the craft got me cheesing Whats the reason for me to continue to keep breathing If I'm only here to sleep, eat On a daily grind just a cog in the machine We, only live once and that coffin is eternal I figured I needed peace before I take the big sleep Barely pa**ed, cause you know I focused heavy on this music I'd, rather be a dreamer scheming how I'm about to do this Than a man who's living foolish, cause hes living for tomorrow, not today When tomorrow isn't promised, are you kidding me? [Hook][x2]
