Moment Of Truth - Napoleon Da Legend

My appetite for life is infinite without an end in sight

Tried and failed a million times I had to get it right

Shipwrecked like Robinson Crusoe on a desert island

No longer thousand island dressing on top of my salad

The city’s overcrowded started taking cold showers

Noticed humble folks are those who hold the most power

Sacrifices you make in and out of state

Going outside your comfort zone, feeling out of place

Early morning in the gym and it’s a ghost town

Still I gotta get my body strong in case it goes down

And there’s an urgency it’s hard for me to slow down

Feel like Barry Gordy in the early days of Motown

They didn’t have the Internet I wonder how they did

It was harder then we constantly complain bout the business

How you calculate success?

Single sales and dollars

Inside ya bank account how many shows or followers?

Respect amongst ya peers, family and friends?

How you helping others?

Ya inner peace or ya zen?

My art is all I own give it 110%

When I’m gone I wanna leave something on earth for my kids

And the rest of the world to understand the way that we live

And inspire all the youth to do better than what we did

I love waking at the crack of dawn when the streets is empty

Mother Earth giving us air gotta treat her gently

My mother’s there and she cares for my well-being

Used to stress her but lately I can tell she can see it

Getting this Velvetta doing what I love

Long stretch from I was J.O.B.'ing for a dub

Cause it u let it you can lose ya motivation fast

Caught up chasing ass being lazy straying from the path

And being disappointing in people not keeping promises

But whatever you promised is promised, I don’t bother with

Anything that’s not in my control cause god knows

Many nights i felt the cold just searching in my soul

Where the ghosts and dark entities roam and fog my energy

Demons I collected became part of my identity

From ashes I rise in all my splendor and brashness

Smacking these arachnids in my sleep yo I got this

Cause my worse enemy is me and the penalty’s

Deep carry my weight like a centipedes knees

Let my legacy speak when my body gone eating Szechuan

Word to Chapelle I’m a never put a dress on

Staring at the truth on my death bed floating towards the lights

I’ll never die Cause my life’s in ya head set

Breaking the rules and I’m no longer confused

I guess I seen my moment of truth
