The Race

Yeah I keep a pace Living my life like a race Pass the baton ima get in first place Look at the sweat on my face I had the will, and God came in clutch with the way Son I could never repay He kept me check so I didn't forget where I came I'm keeping in touch with his grace huh Ain't no shame to this game that I play (what) I have to mention I was on gram no Billy I wanted attention from all the wrong places Posing for clicks it made me look silly I'm not baker but I need the dough like twenty raising the stakes no Philly Pulling away like it was tug of war Built up my emotions I let go quickly Boom That's an onomatopoeia I fall short like I'm DeVito J.T.W what I steer Keep it going this his year KJV the B I B L E crystal clear Love our father who's in heaven Always keep my family near I keep a pace (come here) Living my life like a race My inner thoughts really taking up space Looking like food on my plate asking myself man why are you staying up late What is the motive to be in first place I gotta get my own head out the way Telling myself everyday huh (number one) Ain't no shame to this game that I play You better not choke, perfection is the only goal No room to fail If you break apart then they take your soul God won't take control You're one man that is all alone let that fire dim Don't you dare let that flame grow Be quiet, stay silent, don't talk a lot don't riot Stay tired keep your faith inside so no one else can find it This ain't your pilot this ain't your show You ain't the main character play in your role Keep to yourself so that nobody knows Who you really are and who saved your soul I keep a pace But I feel like I'm starting to faint I got to breath Give me second maybe sip of some water would give me relief I've running for so long and now I'm crawling on my knees I see the finish so close But who's gone help yeah Who's gone help me yeah Yeah
