(HOOK)
From da moment /
That the clock starts tickin
Plots all thicking
Placed in life's race
And ya pace /
Beyond quickens
Sweats flooding ya face/
Ya clothes sticking
A step ahead of the chase
But leads slippin

GOTTA KEEP
GOIN (yeah)

GOTTA KEEP
GROWIN (yeah)

Not only for ya self
But film ya life's showing

Passported /
And my visa is signed
Living my moments/
As I journey through time

VERSE1

Feeling the weight/
Under this /
Full court pressure

Life's gon test ya
Anything and everything
Might
Become a stresser

The small things /
That seem to be light

Can come/
Set cha
Back!
In the midst of ya fight
Then come get cha

Wrapped up/

Prey facing da predator
Trapped up
Head first adversity/
Stacked up
I pivot and backed up
I tallied my maneuvers/
And racked up
Aware of life
And how it can act up

"I'm good"

Move as I should
Based on the things understood
Do what I could
But still not overly hood

"I got my head right"

Under a bed light
Seeing what a fed might/
Over analytically
Locked
The way that death might

Throw his hand in/
With understanding
That most /will never
Comprehend
What him and god
Are planning

But still we locked in/
And fully clocked in/
Stocks bends
& Dissipate
The moment that/
We walked in
(HOOK)
From da moment /
That the clock starts tickin
Plots all thicking
Placed in life's race
And ya pace /
Beyond quickens
Sweats flooding ya face/
Ya clothes sticking
A step ahead of the chase
But leads slippin

GOTTA KEEP
GOIN (yeah)

GOTTA KEEP
GROWIN (yeah)

Not only for ya self
But film ya life's showing

VERSE 2


I Steady Study/
Da Timex

To master How/
The moments
And miles flex

Trying to hold its hands
Till it swings next

A pendulums complex

The tempo
To existences/
Apex

Time sig/
Written to change steps

Dancing wit stars
The Mayans /
Had it all/ In they charts
And lived convicted
Wit it
Lock in they hearts

They measured and marked
From The moment
Of original sparks
Predicting rainfall/
Commandments
And arks


Remanded to watch
Knowing the outcomes/

We playing our parts

Toggling timelines/
Tearing apart

Destroy and restart
The new Eden's in/
Da middle of parks
Wit knowledge
Still stored/
Top of da barks


So I just/
Sit it in park

And be a student/
To what lives in da dark

I take it in and start rewriting /
The ark/

My pen retracing /
The start

Out of respect
For all that's fallen apart
Instead of speaking /
Let it leak in/
Da art

(HOOK)
From da moment /
That the clock starts tickin
Plots all thicking
Placed in life's race
And ya pace /
Beyond quickens
Sweats flooding ya face/
Ya clothes sticking
A step ahead of the chase
But leads slippin

GOTTA KEEP
GOIN (yeah)

GOTTA KEEP
GROWIN (yeah)

Not only for ya self
But film ya life's showing

And my visa is signed
