time 2 shine - def mc 4life lyrics

[intro: def mc 4life]
can’t ever fall off, can’t appear weak, back in ’05, back in ’05
can’t ever fall off, can’t appear weak, back in ’05, back in ’05

[verse 1: def mc 4life]
can’t ever fall off, can’t appear weak, since back in ’05
i’ve been losing on sleep, yeah, campaign calls going 5 to 10 deep
depending on the beef and depending on the week
i mix and match kiddas, chasing these dreams (yo)
in and out the booth, just trying to keep the peace
that queen*sized bedspread made the perfect math
that u*haul sheet and the styrofoam pads
nails in the wall held the lyrics that we had
but most of the time, it was too hot for even that
we called the sh*t “the chamber,” sweating while you do it
you had to have it down and just spit it like you knew it
you had to get it right, ain’t no punches if you blew it (nah)
if you came in weak, another take was what we doing
i put that down on everything, i was pretty tough
but i made the realest crew out a ragtag bunch so, so

[chorus: young phat boi & def mc 4life]
said this is my time to shine
(yo, yo, i’m going up into this town)
(and i ain’t never coming back)
(’til they hand me the crown, so stand back)
said this is my time to shine (stand back, stand back)
(yo, yo, i’m going up into this town)
(and i ain’t never coming back)
(’til they hand me the crown, so stand back)
[verse 2: def mc 4life]
a hard time coping and a hard time climbing (yeah)
a long time coming that my words hit the timing
lines soft spoken, so the bars stay shining
but i stay absent, and the mic stands silent (d*mn)
clouds settle in, depression, denial, and
i keep it close to heart every person is an island
and i am just a man, no better and no worse
the eye of the storm is my mind when it works
and i’m writing on the pad, i’m trying so hard
just to make it to the top, so i’m looking at my scars (see)
every lesson learned is a lesson here in heart
i flip another track on the high a couple sparks
and try to put more in it than the next emcee
in case i don’t make it, kidda, i’ma save it usb
and keep it in my pocket with my wallet and my keys
if i die before my time, it will be my legacy, but, but

[chorus: young phat boi & def mc 4life]
said this is my time to shine
(yo, yo, i’m going up into this town)
(and i ain’t never coming back)
(’til they hand me the crown, so stand back)
said this is my time to shine (stand back, stand back)
(yo, yo, i’m going up into this town)
(and i ain’t never coming back)
(’til they hand me the crown, so stand back)
[verse 3: def mc 4life]
the moment’s gonna come where i’m finished and i’m done
before i hit the stage, i’m gonna give it quite a run
i know i’ve seen it coming, but funny that i’m glad
imagining my girl and everything that we could have (d*mn)
i know she couldn’t stand the ignorance that she would see
the girls and the fame? the drama and the beef?
she’s seen so much, i don’t wanna make her weep (nah)
is it too d*mn much to trade a family for a dream?
no, cause i’m being kinda selfish
all of my life, i grew up thinking i was helpless
wishing i was good at something, wishing i had felt this
my dreams got me through the hardest times and really helped it
but then i guess i changed, i see a better path
i wanna travel down it and be happy that i had (yeah)
but it stopped me in my tracks, i feel it isn’t right
no matter what i do, i’ma always be 4life, so, so
