It was at one moment,
One night,
In about the same time and the same rhyme this rap took to write,
did I admit to myself being unserious won't help
how I felt about life and the things that feel right,
cuz you wanna fight you wanna cut out the lights and be free but
trust me
free is only the moments you get to sit back and be happy...
Sometimes in our pursuit of happiness the overwhelmingness of challenges are far to
Damaging to all the lil things but never crippling to the bigger picture that we call our dreams
Please just stand up now
and go find out how
Your world gets turned upside down in one moment
The moment you realize how from this point on you can keep your head held high
cuz you realized a dream and it never dies
Unless you listen to lies
Which would rather see you meet your demise than watch you grow up to change tides
Don't listen to societies cries and their seemingly undeniable ties to ruining lives because blocking it out...
Is what freedoms about,
cuz staying true means not letting them undo what you choose....
Be free.
Your dreams are your destiny.
Never underestimate the change that occurs when you sit back undisturbed and ponder and question life's lesson..
All I'm trying to do is try a new method to deliver a message
Isn't that what it's about?
That's the purpose of rap no doubt
Instead of having to scream and shout
You use poetries policies to govern your honesty,
but honestly,
why honer the monarchy
cuz raps the apology in and of itself for our revelry and rebellious needs to question the world and all who plead to try and succeed from the plunderous greed of our world and its hypocritical rivalry.
If all we had to do to be free was succeed
than why do people say being free is living simply ...
It's actually a simple misconception
When you're successful you ain't restful,
your restless for more.
Restless to open new doors;
New paths to be traveled in this elaborate maze we establish to amaze our true imagination
in a nation where we’re said to be free as can be
but never believe till we find our american dream.
A dream we redeem,
fulfill and achieve
even when the older demographic trends disagree with our needs to a certain degree
and they condemn rather than recommend ways to amend
and befriend the social syst-em.
We go to such lengths…
To pick up the pace…
Instead of living in the moments that bring little judgement to the subject of freedom.
Everyone's making judgments,
but nobody need em
and if you're judging these lines back up and reread some.
It’s so true
What we do
We stretch and we strain to fulfill expectations...
Only to be stressed and degraded about how we are graded…
and then watch the process repeated.
All it takes is one moment…
For you to set yourself free from their creed and diabolical need to keep you from the things that help you succeed ...
Just One moment …
O n e M o m e n t
To decide you were the one chosen.
I say it's your life…
Your world…
So go out there….
Go own it…
O n e simple m o m e n t...
