Immortal Man

Sometimes I wonder in my lifetime
Will my thoughts ever make it out of written rhymes?
Where people digest, follow my story, and annotate
The meaning behind what I spit up on this mic
I'm tryna go down in history, being self-made
Read about me from page to page, detailing
My younger days, been off the wall with a mic, and
I'll be there Yesterday, Today, and Forever, I'm 25 but
Will I be bulletproof all my life?
Wil I weather the storm or be eroded over time?
I gotta find a way to thrive in this life
Put myself in a gold chain, family ring, and a diary
Forge a sword and pass down a tiara to my daughters
Drink from the fountain of youth, but I gotta watch for snakes, and
The people I'm connected with
'Cause if I slip, man I'll be askin' for a death sentence

Yo, when shit hits the fan, is you still a fan?
Will you walk with me when shit gets bad?
Will you scribe my life in history diaries?
Tell folk tales of my journey?
Will you make me an Immortal Man?
Will you make me an Immortal Man?
Immortal Man

Every day is a chance to be great, but even greatness has its days
Where people hate and try to take its place
Overload it with dismay, call it out on mistakes
Attempt to twist it, break it apart, and kill it, say
Crazy thangs t' make the masses look up at'cha different
Once upon a time, you were gifted, and
Had promise, but I guess that only applies
When you lose the capability of being a human being
In they eyes, you're a god and can do no wrong
Until shit hits the fan, they get appalled
They figure out for the first time in they life that you're human
With a beautiful soul, but sometimes you gotta lose it, and
Start the path to retribution, refute the bullshit, and
Get back to blastin' wit'cha unit
Just do it, don't be afraid of losin'
Put ya best foot forward and get to it, word up

Yo, when shit hits the fan, is you still a fan?
Will you walk with me when shit gets bad?
Will you scribe my life in history diaries?
Tell folk tales of my journey?
Will you make me an Immortal Man?
Will you make me an Immortal Man?
Immortal Man

Sometimes you gotta go through the pain to get back on top
Sometimes you gotta switch lanes to get a better path to walk
Eliminate the dead weight so you can keep goin', and
Drop a deuce on the entire planet
Just think about the times you survived on the job
When you thought everything was hopeless, and now
Everything you ever gave to the world'll stick forever, and
Amplify for generations, you made a statement
To never give in to fakers and the naysayers
Stayed patiently waiting for things to take shape
Sometimes you gotta hold on for a long while
Before you get the chance to stand trial
You feel it in your heart and it's all worth it, you're built for this shit
Can't nobody say a thang 'cause they ain't take this gift
To create something awesome for the offspring
Go shock them suckas back to consciousness, but lemme ask

Yo, when shit hits the fan, is you still a fan?
Will you walk with me when shit gets bad?
Will you scribe my life in history diaries?
Tell folk tales of my journey?
Will you make me an Immortal Man?
Will you make me an Immortal Man?
Immortal Man
