lyrics

Dream big, but don't forget to awake
And take action towards the vision that you want to create
Oh, you want to be great? Then you've got to prepare
No elevator to success, you got to take the stairs

Breathe in, breathe out, don't try to hold it
Your life will be defined by the quality of this moment
So let it soak in, and in time you'll find out
You'll never be as happy as you are right now

So pay attention, you can't afford to play the victim
Why make excuses? When the truth is you can make a difference
Train to hit it with your whole body and brain committed
If you're going to fail, you might as well aim to break your limits

The problem isn't planning your time
If you want to get ahead then start to manage your mind
And get a handle on life, it's up to you
Either you run the day or the day runs you

Top shelf material, every where we go
Top shelf material, top shelf material
Top shelf material, through your stereo
Top shelf material, top shelf material

Top shelf material, every where we go
Top shelf material, top shelf material
Top shelf material, through your stereo
Top shelf material, top shelf material

You could be Black or Blue in your face, Brown, Asian or Caucasian
No matter what the world say, up-vote us to the front page
And hop up on the bandwagon, the center of the Venn diagram
You doth protest I've been rioting since Obama and Joe Biden

Getting hot my temps rising, you won’t catch me fist fighting
You can call me Doug Adams the Galaxy I'm hitch hiking
With 42 towels and I hit like Jackie Robinson
Never throwing in all my goals I’m accomplishing

Top Shelf like porno mags in corner shops in London town
Top shelf ignore the rest and put us up we brought them down
Not watered down we're figuratively, top shelf lyrically
Rocking over any beat, together or individually

Breaking the monotony with organized cacophonies
We're synchronized like symphonies with vocalized soliloquies
It's synergy done properly from Cali to the London streets
Top shelf material 'cause that's what we were born to be

Top shelf material, every where we go
Top shelf material, top shelf material
Top shelf material, through your stereo
Top shelf material, top shelf material

Top shelf material, every where we go
Top shelf material, top shelf material
Top shelf material, through your stereo
Top shelf material, top shelf material
