The Mission (feat. Det the Bomb)

Shout out to my dude Det The Bomb
And Blesst for this fresh beat
We about to tell them what the mission is

Just another quick mission

Yo we sick of the bullshit
Let's live life to the fullest
My team dreams to sculpt this
Vision seen from the pulpit
A better way of living now
Making our future children proud
Of how we held it together
When no one was around
Word to God, guiding us
Staying alive is more than luck
Surviving every trial until dusk
Then start again with love
A new day, a new way to rise up
And conquer every battle coming against us
We've been tough, steady growing
Towards a bright future is where we're going
Never slowing, keep it steady flowing
A promise of hope, keep those doors open
Taking time to relax
Seeing more of the ocean
Spending afternoons in the forest
Meditating on forces
Using momentum not just forcing it
Let it be, stay free
Improve this world with the gifts you've been given
That's the mission
That's the mission

We really don't know, and can't talk about progress
Unless we know where we're going
And making progress to that desired object
But most people involved in what they call progress
Haven't the faintest idea of where they're going
They just don't know what they want
They think they know

F-k the American dream
We're so focused on extremes
We don't see what's in between, it's obscene
It's all about race and money
Getting stoned time and again
For that taste of honey
And I think it's funny
But that's the mission
Class division, rash decisions
Will leave you caught up
And send your ass to prison
Where you become another victim of the system
Think about it
This ain't nothing we haven't heard before
And furthermore
Why you rap about drugs, guns and murder for?
It isn't glamorous
And I don't really care about how much cannabis you smoke
It's a joke
It's time we spoke and use our words for the benefit of good
But it's understood nobody gives a s-t
It's wishful thinking on my part
But I always gotta rhyme from the heart
That's the mission

But in fact, the core mission of both of them
Is exactly the same
I'm reaching out to people
I'm communicating with people
I'm inspiring people
I'm moving people
Using only the power of my voice
So now if I'm asked how I got where I am
I say I found my mission
Let me say that again
Because that's the whole point of this entire talk
I found my mission
The fact of the matter is
Most people in the world do not like their work
