the takeover - street light lyrics

[verse 1]
uh, somebody tell me, who would’ve guessed it
probably anybody who felt me or checked the ethics
behind my work where i’m finding worth in these bible segments
supply the worth where i find the worst of my mind’s conception
writing a verse, i supply the earth with a timeless lesson
you can’t get diamonds from holding nickle and dime investing
it hurts, but i give it my all and nothing less than
unless there’s nothing left, then i fall as a haunted legend
i told ya! one day i’ll be taking over!
cooking tracks instead of cooking that baking soda
making crack and just for that, i praise jehova
as i get older, less of my homies make it back
that makes me wonder why he chose me
and in the process i’m still taking more shots than a goalie
rather i be holy or not
that’s the nail on the head, no hammer like a glock, pops told me

[talking]
alright, right now i’m in atlanta and uh… right behind me is a prison
you know what i’m saying? where they keep all kinds of criminals
i know a ton of people that are in this prison
and it’s crazy to think, sometimes, that that could have been me
but, you know, i made my mind up. i made that choice, that decision that that couldn’t be me
that’s not..that’s not who i am, so i’m not gon’ end up like that, you know?
and i want this music to hit them

[verse 2]
i woke up one morning feeling so different
i can’t go on living and spitting with no winnings
you only get one shot and they can try to block it
but i bet you still get the point like goaltending
what do you do when there’s too much pressure inside the moment
and what was left of your crew is now finally folding
the people that believe and you define it as hopeless
so now you all divided, tryna find the quotient
uh, that was me just a year ago!
but change your mindset, it’s funny how a year will go
is it my time yet?
i p-ssed all the rhyme tests, defied less than favourable odds
that’s why they fear me, though
and this song right here is a tale of redemption
my climb, my grind, their failure to listen
my time, these rhymes prepare you to witness
my light shines everywhere as long as i’m living

[talking]
don’t let anybody ever tell you what you can’t be, what you can’t do, who you are or who you are not
only you define that. it’s called the takeover. you not taking over somebody else, or anybody else’s things
you taking over yourself. you’re your greatest enemy until you become your greatest ally
and that’s word. street
