Running with the bag, keep my head on a swivel
Steady coming with the facts using lead from a pencil
Or when I freestyle I use my head and the tempo
I keep my thing clean, I ain't in bed with the bimbos
My mind is in the stratus but my judgement never clouded
I'm on the straight and narrow so I gotta keep my balance
I'm leading by example, I won't say it 'less I'm bout it
I'm eating by the handful, if you bite, you're left without it
I paved a new way, now I'm signing my initials
I made it through the flames without frying down to gristle
I pray you do the same 'cause this life is bound to press you
Relaying all the change I've acquired through the trickle
I been through the thick, I'm looking forward to the thin
And I do it what it takes to keep my blood in my skin
In a room full of snakes, I'm the one with the grin
Got a tomb with my name, that I ain't ever going in
Young and we alive
We never gonna die
Put one up in the sky
We never gonna die
Young and we alive
We never gonna die
Put one up in the sky
We never gonna die
Coolin' with the syndicate
I'm moving onto bigger hits
My life is like a movie, this the motion you been picturing
I'm shining like it's jewelry, but my skin has just been glistening
I'm trying to find the perfect way to phrase how I'm going in
I'ma just say I'm amazed by my vocals and
I'ma just stray and foray where the locals end
I just pray they don't wait 'til I know my end
Then give me all the praise that they'd say I was owed again
When I pontificate it's like I bomb interstates
Firestorms, bigger blaze
Trial courts, sentence dates
You now rocking with the volatile
You my son, you just a problem child
Ow
I keep it moving like an escalator
And I got extra flavor
I'm feeling blessed and favored
I won't accept nothing less than major
I won't desist 'til my chest on a respirator
Young and we alive
We never gonna die
Put one up in the sky
We never gonna die
Young and we alive
We never gonna die
Put one up in the sky
We never gonna die
