Better Than Your Best...

I always felt, and continue to feel, like music gives words to feelings that you sometimes can't express. It's why producers rock to a vibe, why rappers let their verses roll on swagger, and why people can HATE an artist but be caught singing their songs involuntarily. It's a crazy thing indeed. I wanted to make a song that constantly reminded me, as well as the listeners, that anything is possible, and there should never be a question of IF, but rather HOW. Everyone should wake up and strive to be better than the day before, make progress, and elevate their situation as long as there's a breath in their body. The homie Dert from out of West Covina produced this stellar beat, and I felt like it fit perfectly with what I was aiming for lyrically, as you can see by the lyrics below! Partake:
What could I be scared for
Tweakin' when I'm there, or
Taking full advantage of the season I'm in rare form
Is it just in my world or do they really care, or
Do I got respect to collect like a landlord
You can fall for anything with nothing left to stand for
Sitting on the outside banging on the damn door
Labeled opportunity
Looking back it's usually
The glow from the jewelry and other Tom Foolery
That blind you
I remind you
Like Mary J
Time don't rewind stop pause and it rarely play
I'm reminded of a clause when they bury say
It's only one life live ya last like it's everyday
No offense to the followers of Buddha
Burn these hits nigga no computer
Rolled up longer than a ten inch ruler
But don't judge me cause I do what I do, cuz
You can't just let it slip away
Just beat your best for it today
View how the best get rich and say
Act now the rest is history
Yeah the money won't wait,
Yeah the money won't wait,
Money don't wait, money.
Yeah the money won't wait,
Yeah the money won't wait,
Money don't wait, money.
Money don't wait G but money don't make me
High flow like I was a pilot in the Navy
Pablo never, I was born in the 80's
And most'a these Tracys are sweeter than pastries
Since I want cake well then I'ma be baking
Till it's no banking just money tree shaking
Headed for the goal I am Chris Paul breaking
And plus I block shots like crack house shading
This is me when they're not videotaping
But guaranteed baby I've risen your ratings
Haters speak up I can't hear what you're saying
Is it my flow or just is it your faking
I'm a young leader of the world in the making
The rest'a ya'll fall, like gradients fading
Finished school but I never honored that grading
Cause it's a free world, everything's for the taking...
You can't just let it slip away
Just beat your best for it today
