My Life

[Hook]
My life moves at the speed of the light
My life, I'm in the fight of my life for all of my life
My life is in the limelight, my life here is finite
So gather round tonight and take a look at my life

[Verse 1: manCHILD]
I live the high life with lowlifes who want life to go right
They flow like amateurs while I'm a professional who's pro-life
In rap olympics pro mics hold records against physics
And make my words a guillotine so that heads can roll with it
No limit to the breath that I breathe and this life that I lead
Might just touch enough minds with rhymes, to live a thousand lifetimes
Bring sentences to life while you serve this life sentence
Just a slave to every hour, counting seconds by the minute
Me, I start where many finish, and my life to me is endless
Tread towards the infinite coz life to me's a pilgrimage
Skywalk like phantom menace, against all odds like Jeff Bridges
To live life first 'til second coming, hype verses
Verse words written down, world wishing I might curse
But my heart beats to the stroke of my pen and I'd die first
Flirt with disaster and transfer life lessons on wax
And make a soundtrack for life with every track

[Hook]

[Alt. Hook]
My life moves at the speed of the light
My life, I'm in the fight of my life for all of my life
No money, broke life, breaking life down to a science
(my death might be a tragedy, my life will be a triumph)

[Verse 2: manCHILD]
I got my mind on my money and my money in the next man's bank account
Put my hand to the plow, close my mouth, and just say thank you now
I'm thinking how they take a bow, monopolize the hand claps
Mountains change to mole hills and beaches turn to sand traps
I walk the narrow path with bare feet on top of broken glass
Navigate through trials of fire that only the chosen pass
I'm holding fast to what's real, and let the rest fall by the wayside
Trace the hands of time to touch a psyche of the playwrite
But some of y'all don't play right, you back bite and black ball
With our back to the wall, eye on the cross amidst the cat calls
And that's all, man base is wherever this track falls
The business wants a change up, but I'm steady throwing the fast ball
Winning the pennant for independents leaving this industry winless
Giving a clinic right up until the freaking finish
Yo, in this mic I amplify my life to all the rap fans
Whether words hit airwaves or some record label's trash can
Breathe, breathe in all the good that lies around me
Kiss the ground I walk upon and thank The Most High that He found me
Take the bull by the horns, commence to do the work of millions
Yo, it's my life, and i'll build up a nation of manchildren

[Hook]

[Alt. Hook]

[Verse 3: manCHILD]
I've slapboxed with the pugilist, broken bread with the damned
From Judah fist to Judas' kiss but it’s impossible for me
To see the blueprint master plan and try to trace the Master’s hand
Stand shouting for the grand stand transform plus illuminous
I haven’t felt this brand new since I left my mother’s uterus
Jupiter’s dust cloud couldn’t shroud my beaten brow
Other battle scars of earth, which have become so very proud
I run this scarlet through my crown while steady screaming “what now?”
Crowd breath drawing collecting at the corners of my mouth
Manifest every last destiny's child exits with God’s blessing
Impress my wounds on licking shots, my vocal cords constricting
My exposure to the sunlight results in heavy blistering
A mystery of life lived to be pondered by all the ages
No more jocking trite emcees and open mics or platform stages
Place my rage out of my reach taste any victory in fazes
Day in and day out, I’m living my life, my life
