Do what you have to just to make magic Make them ends meet ‘cause life's so tragic But yet we strive on… [Verse 1 – Cise star] Sun is everyday magic, wonder in life: laughter Disaster abounds when we refuse capture We livin' in the moment and on it go after We think about tomorrow ‘cause sorrow is gonna happen Lights from the camera, rework the action We fight with the stamina just to please ma**es Do what you got baby, you not an actor It's real life holding a knife, stabbing the atlas Flow tight, keeping me right, my mind wander CYNE kept me going, but damn I run harder Scared of success but can't handle failure Worked with the best, but yet, I can't tell ya Doubt keep me down, but clout give me ground ‘Round and around from hell to gold crowns Highs to the lows, Seba Jun, he went home God bless his soul.

Man, we been double stressed out like Tip and Phife Dawg I really can't let my fam down They're the reason that I don't quit and I fight hard But even with the planet on my shoulders I keep an underdog mentality with champion composure [Hook – Cise Star] ‘Cause we climbin' Jakob's Ladder What's the matter?
