Ain't where you're from it's where you at
ain't where you run from square to map
Ain't where you're stunned its where you fact
where your craft can prepare you dare to act
Ain't where you fiction its where you find
Ain't where you lay back walk the line
Ain't a notion it's a concrete motion
Solidified in time on this concrete ocean
That spot between a hard place and a rock
Is better than the center intersecting two opposing hot blocks
Its a cold serving of struggle for your dinner or don't
Where the winters are sold and the winners are not
Beginners get got and o.g.'s are stocked up
in the middle wide in the open and being watched like a potluck
Get no attention, to split dough and mention
With those who oppose every tiptoed intention
Two steps ahead and one back to set your course steady
At a pace impossible to be ready for anymore
Any door might close tight right at anytime
Like an absent thought unpaid without any mind
Any shine is filtered, so really how many blind
In the land of the blind king where he rules every eye
Every sky seen at the end of the day's a bonus
Though tomorrow isn't promised, we promise that they won't hold us---back
Signs will tell you much if your mind ain't stuck
Even the blind find their mind unbound with a profound refined sense of touch
Ya heard he? Gold school like James was to worthy
I keep new school true school two school aim is certain
Instinct will bring another chapter and page to the story
Your reactions and actions will bring pain or glory,
Hallelujah inner roots will now manuever
To fortify like 4 to 5, truth is the remover
Of doubt no doubt can cloud the space or unit
We doing it, doing it brace for full on movement
In the blink of 3 eyes could be gone, life's illusive
Time and change always remain the price is proven
Rhyme and reason are by design so slice into it
We can all get a piece of the pie the heights are useless
No measurements for inner grind in inner-cities
But no hesitance will keep you in line so get that evidence
Ain't where you're from it's where you at
ain't where you run from square to map
Ain't where you're stunned its where you fact
where your craft can prepare you dare to act
Ain't where you fiction its where you find
Ain't where you lay back walk the line
Ain't a notion it's a concrete motion
Solidified in time on this concrete ocean
