I spend my time lookin over, I keep my eyes on the treasure
Focused in on a goal im ranking duty over pleasure
Center attentino on increase, with my mind over measure
With this natural intention to increase my full potential
I balance equilibrium just by adhering to my goals
I rose out of my very ashes now my blood is running cold
And if my storys been told then ima tell it again
And when I tell you this story ima tell you where ive been
ive been to treacherous entrenches nonexistent physical
And ive debated in my rhymes if times are changing twisting up
I never say that ima do something with no intention of
doing what i had commited to im not that kind of scrub
I dont need your pity, i dont need your sorrows just to know
Cuz I dont need nobody else to help me live and learn and grow
Delibarations like a maze delivery has got my gaze
My eyes are glazed im unfazed ive blazed through way too many pages
And my wages are my downfall, these green goggles fog my vision
I have happiness on one hand on the other I have riches
From all the places that ive been and all the grievance ive seen
My advice is never let your life become a could have been
I spend my time lookin over, I keep my eyes on the treasure
Focused in on a goal im ranking duty over pleasure
Center attentino on increase, with my mind over measure
With this natural intention to increase my full potential
Rhyme schemes polluted, rappers talk about cars
They spend more time on tryin to show off then they do on making bars
The flow is something that is given its internal and its true
It all adds up inside combines to make a part of what is you
Potential blasts in every individual on earth
And just because someone may reach it it does not improve his worth
If his words and his actions differ in this state of mind
Then all this man has gained success in is in telling himself lies
whyy is that I know before i hear your verse
the very word youre thinking too predictable a course
of actions and these separate factions in divisions just like fractions
im a manic in depression trying to learn my very lessons
Ive uprooted in my mind the whole idea of a goal
Now im setting out for silver, but inside I hope for gold
So, stop the press and put and end to this mess
Because im giong for the gold and I wont settle for less
