I keep charging, I keep attacking
Not knowing, if it’ll happen
I push forward, no stoppin’
Eyes on the prize cause failure is not an option
What if I don’t make it?
What if I kick the bucket before I get a chance to taste it?
Sometimes I feel it’s all for nothin’
Other times I feel like I’m the man god damn I’m somethin’
I know I’m playing a losing game
I’m just a fish biting the allure of this stupid fame
I’m a sittin’ duck
I’d pro’ly quit if I only knew how to give up
Too many factors, so many obstacles
Others have had it but for me is it even possible?
Only time will tell, I might as well
Give it my best shot I’d rather that I try and fail
Then never try at all, sit around lie cry and ball
Blaming everything because I’m mad that my career has stalled
I get one shot and damn man
I’m gonna keep swinging until I hit a fucking grand slam
I keep charging, I keep attacking
Not knowing, if it’ll happen
I push forward, no stoppin’
Eyes on the prize cause failure is not an option
I’m pretty sure I’m delusional, and I’m fine with it
In fact I think it needs to be that way if I’m to get
The success that I’m working on attractin’
So I’m clearing a path between the haters and their laughin’
Holding back the fear the end is getting near
I know my biggest enemy is looking at me in the mirror
But I got to keep moving
I got to keep uping the ante and improving
Cause idle hands do the devil’s work
So if I’m not pursuing my goals I know my head’ll burst
It’s work before reward
Sometimes I have to step back just to catapult me forward
Pushing thru the highs and lows, tiring blows
Apathy, and battling the “I don’t knows”
All for a better life
Let the record show my wins and loses but not that I never tried
