Highlights of Life 2

1st Verse

I'm making today wonderful
Grateful for things old, and plus the new
For what I have, and what I've gotta get
And for my frame of mind, I aint trying to sit
U say what, what time is it??
Time to find that strength that's inside to lift
The bar so high that I can throw it up
No matter how much I learn, I'll never know enuff
And every morning is a fortune
Cuz often, bodies are laid up in a coffin
I'd like to see the day we all win
Celebrate, take time before it all ends
If soul is a hole, I fall all in
Listening to the wind while I am walking,
By, a prime example of my vibe
I aint tripping off time right now,
I'm feeling like

Hook

I'm glad I can say I
Found a highlight
My ideas now can fly
That's in my life
Thru songs I spread the word
What I believe in
Inspired by what I heard
Gave me reason
So I guess I'm gonna create
Keep on building
No matter how long it takes
Time reveals that
If u reach for the highest heights
There's a highlight
Success is only right
In all of our life

2nd Verse

The past is a good friend of..
mine, reminds me of when I used to chill outside
So many times.. Plenty lows & highs and
Sometimes I close my eyes to peep where I've been.
I'm from a place called Suitland,
Maryland, reaching the world with the music
Now as a child, I used to play the french horn
Who knew that later on I would write songs
Rhyming, striving, surviving, climbing up
Ladders, no matter the heights
Cuz in God we trust
Whether planes, trains, or bus
We're still in motion
Crossed the ocean, performing with my close friends
Thankful that I aint thru
Many greats, I look up to them salute
Every interview when they question my influence
I had to speak on the cats that inspired me to do this

3rd verse

At the end of the day, see I stay
Finding my own tone
A leader like stroll, quite incite-ful
You know thateverything shimmering ain't gold
And nothing comes free, u've gotta get it on your own
How many gon, claim to put our city on
We grown, so we've gotta come up with many goals
Though plenty would envy how I gets busy
Genuinely I'm sending light thru a song whenever the mic is on
I invite the globe, to my place of birth
Though disfunctional, we're making it work.. And I learnt
That aint nobody gonna do it for you
And not every friend's gonna be loyal
You let pride win, then it destroys you
Is this for the crew, or are you doing you??
Some questions that I ask, while I write
Just looking at my life pointing out the highlights
