First and foremost, I am not a rapper, so forgive me. This one was done by request, my own rendering with my own lyrics. It's about growing into an adult and getting life together, and figuring out your own life path. I had originally planned to find someone else to rap these lyrics, however I found no volunteers. However, you can tell the direction I was trying to go for this one. I started developing a few more editing skills with this one as well, using melodics and harmonics in my lyrics and trying to match them up pitch perfect. I was on a little bit of a time restraint with this one. It didn’t hit too well with too many, but this was a pretty good practice piece, and a pretty big step up.

LYRICS:
Yo!

There used to be a time, man, when life was OK
When you didn't ask questions, that you just got your way
But now that it's over, you've got responsibility
Cause now it's your time where you find out your abilities
Forget the common places, man, that don't make sense
Cause you're out on your own, and you're life's getting tense
Life is full and stocked with surprises and more
Everything you knew one time is now out the door

Forget everything you ever learned in the past
Except how to survive and how to have a blast
Cause you get one shot to live it your way
Cause even right now, it's a passing day
Forget everything you know, or think you know
All that matters right now is how you go
All these other people, man, they're building some slack
Don't let that be you, and don't look back
Keep looking ahead, and don't look back

In this world (His world)
Where life is long
In this world (His world)
Life's an open book
In this world (His world)
Where compromise does not exist
In this world of worlds, ever step meets the risk

You know that time may be ticking on the clock of life
Like butter melts away from the warmest knife
But there's time to think, not just time to do
There may be many errors you make, but you're pulling it through
You need to go without worry
Be like Sonic, he can do it cause he's not in a hurry
He can do things quick, but with quality too
He doesn't fool around when there's things to do

You see, the point is, you need to take your time
Cause think about it. The clock don't even chime to life
Where you going, and whatcha gonna do?
It's questions like these that make life so true
Don't be at loss cause there's plenty of things
Like getting opportunity whenever it rings
So whatever you do, just don't give up hope
Cause if you do that, then you cannot cope
Just do all you can, and then you'll cope

In this world (His world)
Where life is long
In this world (His world)
Life's an open book
In this world (His world)
Where compromise does not exist
In this world of worlds, ever step meets the risk

In this world (His world)
Where one is all
In this world (His world)
Never fear the fall
In this world (His world)
Where compromise does not exist
In this world of worlds, every step meets the risk

See, I know the pains of the mountains to climb
But it never will be over for me, not at any near time
It took a while for some goals to get done
But I'm 19 strong and I'm still having fun
See, I never give up, I never let in, I know it
Even if it's too hard, I still show it
I'll never blow it, run over and mow it, I'll go it
It's seven below but I never slow it, you know it

Fear nothing cause it's only beginning
If you make the right moves, then you know you'll be winning
It's the game of life, you make the rules
If you don't follow them up, you'll end up a fool
Just listen to your heart, and do what you will
Keep reaching for your goals cause you may get skilled
Push yourself hard to do more than the rest
It's up to you now, so go for your best
You can do great, so go for your best

In this world (His world)
Where life is long
In this world (His world)
Life's an open book
In this world (His world)
Where compromise does not exist
In this world of worlds, ever step meets the risk

In this world (His world)
Where one is all
In this world (His world)
Never fear the fall
In this world (His world)
Where compromise does not exist
In this world of worlds, every step meets the risk
