[Chorus]
Trying to be something more
Than I've ever been before
Meaning something to more than just me
But I wonder if it's just a false reality
Making up a brand new story
Standing two steps from disaster
Take two steps and go in faster
Trying to become a lyrical master
[Verse 1]
People don't believe me
When I say I'm doing my best
Cause they do expect
Something more
Something I do not possess
Sorry, but your not the only dissapointed
Thought it would be easy
But it isn't
I have to find the connection between my soul and my heart
And it hurts
Realizing everything leading up to now has been a lie
They left me behind
Catch up, and run on by
Because I'm almost at the finish line
Lap 1 done
Time for that victory shit
Never studying history shit
Cause I'm here to make it
I'm not changing the game
I wanna change lives
No ghost writer while I ride
Love this shit
That's the motto till I die
[Chorus]
Trying to be something more
Than I've ever been before
Meaning something to more than just me
But I wonder if it's just a false reality
Making up a brand new story
Standing two steps from disaster
Take two steps and go in faster
Trying to become a lyrical master
[Verse 2]
Motherfucker keep ya shit raised
The flag's at top mast
Half way down in the past
Cause this life is ridicoulous
Shit we can't expect from this
Life we call living
But is it
Cause existing is not breathing
Live life to fullest
Follow your heart
That's what I'm doing
Or atleast I'm trying to
I hope somehow you try too
Follow me in my time machine
Fuck the damn rhyme machine
I ain't no robot
With the popping
Going forward while y'all stopping
Cause I'm not trying no more
Motherfucker, call this doing
Stand on crowd booing
But atleast I'm on stage
Do shit my way
Young for my age
Fill of peice of the puzzle of my face
With every single track
But there's so much more than that
[Chorus]
Trying to be something more
Than I've ever been before
Meaning something to more than just me
But I wonder if it's just a false reality
Making up a brand new story
Standing two steps from disaster
Take two steps and go in faster
Trying to become a lyrical master
[Verse 3]
Shit don changes
Don't ya see
This is the narrative
You call it a story
I call it life
Rap is the real shit
Like a lighter goes flick
My blade done switched
Itself with a book
The book called a bible
Burning, no survival
If god's gonna kill us all
I can't blame him
Just please hold on
Until I drop Milky Way
It'll take more than a few days
My brain will erase
The memories of life
Life is what I'm living
How I want to
Cause I was raised that way
Not by my parents
But by E-Dub
Never got in troub
I'm a good kid
But mom and dad
I got spit real shit
Real quick
[Chorus]
Becoming something more
Than I've ever been before
Meaning something to more than just me
But I wonder if it's just a false reality
Making up a brand new story
Standing two steps from disaster
Take two steps and go in faster
Trying to become a lyrical master
[Verse 4]
Requiem for a dream
This isn't a dream
I woke up
With a wake
All this shit's fake
Tear it down
The truman show
But I don't know
Never seen the movie
Not into flicks
Just into raps
I fell into a trap
Saw my leg off
I don't even need it
All I need is this
