Key To The City

Run your marathon but only race yourself
Every man is in control of his life or death
You got to keep it moving so just pace yourself
And if you get knocked down aint no ref

I'm just a M.I.Crooked nigga coming at your neck
The game just ain't the same so I came to do a check
Employees turned to bosses that's the shit that I respect
So you better keep your voices down and come correct
See if peep my soul you'll realize my real eyes
Can see real lies in real time so I decide to confide
In this beat and just rhyme flow elite anytime
You think it's sweet rewind the beat and just try to compete
With Big Gee The Big Boss I'm holding all the sauce
I ain't afraid to take a loss and let it burn in my thoughts
And realize my mistake and take time so I wait and
Take notes to learn every single way to take it farther
Than the goats did I'm watching all their interviews
Stealing knowledge on how to do this and for a longtime
I was clueless but now I walk up into booths spitting smooth
Who you fooling

Run your marathon but only race yourself
Every man is in control of his life or death
You got to keep it moving so just pace yourself
And if you get knocked down aint no ref

You see lightening in my eyes if you look you see pain
I swear sometimes I close my eyes cause I feel I'm insane
I'm about to blow up in this bitch and go up like propane
You adopted the dark I'm molded like I'm Bane
Eventhough I had to go and disappear
I swear I had to beat the odds like a Cavalier
And now I'm bumping real hard I'm moving hemispheres
And still I got my nigga Muzik he the engineer
I'm just expressing my dreams so I bet on myself
I'm just aggressive with schemes so I'm feeling myself
I just supress them with ease it's like I crush them to death
Kicking flows like Messi lie and I'll take your last breath
Three days before I was born Easy fell tragically
Nine months before that Outkast popped on the scene
My Mom she got so fresh and my Dad he got so clean
They took a funky ride and made a player named Big Gee you see

Run your marathon but only race yourself
Every man is in control of his life or death
You got to keep it moving so just pace yourself
And if you get knocked down aint no ref
