Survival - Soul Position

You in the doghouse?

Umm, ba-da-ba-dum, bum, ba-boom-ba-boom boooom

Mm, mm, mm, ah-um…

Envision my determination like, the anger of a woman scorned

Nine months deep with a seed about to be born

And an alliance to the most high that can never be torn

Through these life-like lines my legacy lives on

With every line written and spit I build power

Then construct a palace of solitude in a land of ivory towers

On a search for solitude when every inch is occupied

Claim truth in music where the eyes are known to lie

Yo, I was born to die but for some reason I keep breathin

Every time I write (write) my thoughts (thoughts) deepen

I dredge the edge of longevity keep keepin

Seekin truth beyond proof of man speakin

Leavin no stone unturned, my eyes burn for higher learnin

Pushin my pen to deconstruct life like a surgeon

Determination, it takes great patience to operate

Inside closed minds with limited time

«Stay awake to the ways of the world»

«But as the world turns» — «Survival got me buggin»

Everyone’s the same, nobody’s different

One down, two replace him, no one’s left who missed him

Rap eas' and I learn with a low learning curve

New raps born by rearrangin the same words

Rearrangin the same verbs (verbs) nouns (nouns) phrases (phrases)

The torch carried on, same gang, different faces

Different places, but it’s still all adjacent

Underground is underground, but basement’s the basement

Some, claim original every time they speak

Then rhyme with the next man’s style, stuck in they teeth

Bite more than you can chew you might choke on it

I’ll make it so you don’t want it, you DON’T want it

Y’all plans failed fully cause you failed to fully plan

Self-made pedestal crumbled cause it was a sham

Quickly dropping from the top but you never land

Too arrogant to know or notice you’re no longer the man

So I left (left) right (right) through rain, sleet and snow

No matter where, baggage of the world on my soul

Holdin my own on, all that I know (know)

I’m determined to keep movin, got places to go

With each step I walk I jog a thousand style-biters

Two thousand feet follow the star that shines brightest

Strong foundation, microphone science

Determination of divided nation now united

I dares that light to pierce the deepest darkness

Bull’s-eye aim straight through, never lose target

Never settle to keep improvin on my best moves

Mentality to win, but still not afraid to lose

Not afraid to choose, or make decisions

Braveheart, make all clear with precision

Determinist speak, ought through wisdom

Persistance helps us complete all missions

«Buggin, buggin, buggin…»
