It goes like this


And it goes like this You see I got a problem I don't know what to write I got no inspiration, i got no insight But just then it hit me Hit me like Mr. T hit Rocky The solution to the problem, Is the problem itself People always write about the struggle But you won’t find this one on the shelf I’m flowing down the right route Sound the bugle, I ain’t gotta doubt But it doesn’t have substance does it? Just a dope flow but that ain't shit. I don't want to be another bland rhymer It has to make an impact, I’m a hardliner Let’s start with motive behind it I need money, nothing more to it You might say we all do, why you? Sad to say but I don't know I can't say what, when or how to But the time will come A time when the reason will be unveiled Life has given me plenty, and borrowed some When it is returned in full it will rain No it shall storm down fortune upon me As well as those who stood by me But before the great wave of life The water must recede till a bit is left It is this point when people leave They leave with hopes lost to the water But for those who endure the shallow The ones who stay shall be rewarded thereafter That is how i feel, the water has yet to drop But I know its coming, over the horizon Beyond my sight, i have only intuition so now i wait, i endure through and through It goes like that for me, how about you?
