Forced Into Greatness

Skywalkerdafree12

I'm going down on a rollercoaster,
But I'm still sitting in my bedroom staring at my Jordan poster.
I'm in too deep and I know it.
Tho I'm in over my head, I bet that I won't ever show it.
You better know it.

That's the way I like it.
When my back is against the wall is when I do my best fighting.
I either am or am not enlightened,
But I bet there is no telling me, that I am not guided.                     I believe that the end has been decided.

My...mind of in the clouds.
My...body going through the motions.
My...spirit is lifted,
No matter the ish that a person must deal with.
I done went from the person who kills quick,
To the king that sees an issue, and knows how to heal it.
I am now,  just the ghost of a villain,
But a saint was once a sinner who also needed some healing.
I...am just trying to be a better man.
Through...a world that aint trying let me.
I...will rise above the influence.
And of course, I'm wrong for the proving,
If you really really think, that it's in you to do it.
I will tell you to take your best shot,
But worrying about you, aint the reason that I everything that I got.
I feel like I'm everything that you're not!

I'm going down on a rollercoaster,
But I'm still sitting in my bedroom staring at my Jordan poster.
I'm in too deep and I know it.
Tho I'm in over my head, I bet that I won't ever show it.
You better know it.

That's the way I like it.
When my back is against the wall is when I do my best fighting.
I either am or am not enlightened,
But I bet there is no telling me, that I am not guided.
I believe that the end has been decided.

What you know about trials and tribulations,
Flagrant acts of hatred,
Just take a trip to a third world nation.
Like I did,
and just see how the things you take for granted,
real poor people hold sacred.
Just a day in our lives, is their vacation.
What else do I need for inspiration...
Well get this,
Listen and listen well,
This is a resistance,
So go ahead run and tell,
That I'm open for business and I'm still taking applications.
For every single position,
Except for my replacement.
This is a movement,
For people who push back,
So like I said before, go run and tell that...
To anyone who will listen.
I'll be standing right here.
It's my permanent position.

I'm going down on a rollercoaster,
But I'm still sitting in my bedroom staring at my Jordan poster.
I'm in too deep and I know it.
Tho I'm in over my head, I bet that I won't ever show it.
You better know it.

That's the way I like it.
When my back is against the wall is when I do my best fighting.
I either am or am not enlightened,
But I bet there is no telling me, that I am not guided.
I believe that the end has been decided.
