@ The Speed Of Light

Whatcha know about rolling 95 from a, city to city?
Half full of tank of gas, $1.50?
Whatcha know about taking opportunities that's, outta ya norm?
While staying on what you're striving for?
Whatcha know about being in the middle of a, history?
With his girl legacy next to me?
Whatcha know about losing everything that's a, close to you?
Including once down homies in your crew?
Whatcha know about moving backstage through a, smoke and liquor?
Backpack full of CDs, bumper stickers.
Whatcha know about building mic stands with just a broom stick?
Scotch tape everywhere did the trick.
Whatcha know about time moving fast and you, question your age?
This is my life, ride around, unicycle sounds and sights.
Tryna take it all in @ The Speed of Light.

Father Time tryna push me like... Go! Go!
My dreams trying push me like. Go! Go!
A race against time, tryna do what's right.
Tryna take it all in @ The Speed of Light.
My fam tryna push me like. Go! Go!
The world tryna push me back... Oh No!
A race against time, tryna get a piece of mind.
Tryna take it all in @ The Speed of Light.

Whatcha know about being born deaf? You can't hear nothin.
Gettin tapped on the shoulder, oh did you say somethin?
Very long sessions in speech therapy.
Green Eggs and Ham made me a real emcee.
Whatcha know about havin deadly technique?
A whole lot of nothin cause yours is so weak!
Got it! In every single thing that I do.
You can't be like me when you're being like you.
Whatcha know about going to college?
I met my best friends, acquiring knowledge.
Now I got your ears arrested held hostage.
With my energy caution high voltage.
Whatcha know about counting your blessings?
Struggling while learning life lessons?
All while battling depression?
Gather 'round class is in session!

A year ago, Pops said I didn't work enough.
A year later Pops says I work too much.
Gone is the weekend, only the next day.
I guess for forever, this' the price paid.
I'm tryna find a balance while I reach another level.
You can fly with the angels, or dance with the devil.
It's showtime, in top Forum, rapping my ass off.
LA King, Left Wing, 3 goals, hats off!

The beast AKA the police.
Disrupting peace killing Black men in the streets.
This ends today, chokeholds can't breathe.
Body cameras and you still don't believe!
Whatcha know about what I deal with day to day?
Prejudice and the fucked up things people say?
A glass ceiling and barricades in my way.
Going @ The Speed of Light, I got Something to say...

(Hook)
