Mic check, Mic check 1, 2 It all started with a step then evolved into a movement This music had molded me into a person intune with the rhythms that surrounded me The haters started doubting me but no one could attempt to be the person I was bound to be Now I've grown with no intention to stop Dropping knowledge like a nervous librarian While kicking veteren flows that's better than most Selling out shows Never forget my past 'Cause it wasn't so long ago I was broke, chocking on herb, writing words in my palm Keeping calm 'Cause a level head will always keep you strong This long road chasing the gold but getting silver I went back to the grims 'Cause mom ain't raise a quitter I'll be damned if I give in after all that I put in Gassed up on inspiration, sparked the ignition, pealed off Navigated my way though the dark and never a fallen to victim to people disguised as sharks Follow my heart even if it lead me to ruin Allowed to make mistakes 'cause damn, I'm only human (Right?) Chasing the light that's calling to me No matter how much you try there's nobody else that can do me Follow my heart even if it lead me to ruin Allowed to make mistakes 'cause damn, I'm only human (Right?) Chasing the light that's calling to me No matter how much you try there's nobody else that can do me Life under pressure has me learning every single day Changing my ways to escape this phase Riding the waves hope it takes me to a different place to where I'm at Finally made it out but them problems try to pull me back Until that mindset that never lets go, they hate to see you rise so they keep you below Instead I flow on the hands of my fans during the show Stacking doe so my family will never have to be poor Putting in the work or always strive to be perfect Knee deep in the game without even scratching the surface Searching for purpose in this puzzling game The struggle is universal, we all go through the pain Different lanes that all lead into the same destination Wanna free my mind and reach the state of elevation Tired of waitin', see it's now or never Kenji and Philanthrope repping chillhop forever Follow my heart even if it lead me to ruin Allowed to make mistakes 'cause damn, I'm only human (Right?) Chasing the light that's calling to me No matter how much you try there's nobody else that can do me Follow my heart even if it lead me to ruin Allowed to make mistakes 'cause damn, I'm only human (Right?) Chasing the light that's calling to me No matter how much you try there's nobody else that can do me
