Artist Swollen Members
prevail
before i fade to black in the shaded shack
in a box with handles and my family in back
i will have achieved my life in leaves
of paper
that kept me safer than hangin with theives
ive been in the big house
but not for long
but long enough to know its hard to make songs
i played my cards and kept movin along
hooked up with madchild and righted my wrongs
you dont continue with circles
we generate light
so three hundred and sixty five days i study and write
i bloody the mic and will continue to learn
from the best in the world until the night i burn
i fought for my turn
you can check my gloves
we both have inkpads covered with blood and scabs
i love what i have but i will progress
and i do every day when i take my first step
its all about breath
when its done im gone
and death is a pawn in a game on a board of which im on
ive had a sword in my palm from the very first tracks
that were cut
mastered
and released under battleaxe
its nice to know that ive been a part of something reversal
camouflage to consumption
chorus
yo its funny how time flies
life has lows and highs
and thats no surprise
come along for the ride
can you handle the drive?
act on it
cause life can flash before your eyes
time flies
lows and highs
and thats no surprise
come along for the ride
can you handle the drive?
act on it
cause life can flash before your eyes
madchild
before im laid to rest
ima do my best
cause the biggest death threat is too many regrets
and i aint goin out like i wonder what woulda happened
if id never given up
kept on rappin
been so many years of blood
sweat and tears
fears to overcome
so ima give it my all
and when its last call
at least therell be no questioning
if i fall
ill know it just wasnt my destiny
maybe its not meant to be
but eventually
i gaurantee ill satisfy myself mentally
im sick and tired of the position acquired
i appreciate it
but ive seen visions in fire
a premonition
spiritually awaken
with doses and moments of magic to take in
well keep it movin and go at it whole-hearted
madchild works the hardest to finish what he started
chorus
yo its funny how time flies
life has lows and highs
and thats no surprise
come along for the ride
can you handle the drive?
act on it
cause life can flash before your eyes
time flies
lows and highs
and thats no surprise
come along for the ride
can you handle the drive?
act on it
cause life can flash before your eyes
madchild prevail
theres no time to waste
we move with grace
one life to embrace
though it feels like a race
both nameless faces in a dangerous place
the strange and great
rearrange your taste
both from almost nothing
to almost something
from noone listening
to everybody jumpin
both kings on the mic
we got kings on production
fuck fallin off
this is just and introduction
chorus
yo its funny how time flies
life has lows and highs
and thats no surprise
come along for the ride
can you handle the drive?
act on it
cause life can flash before your eyes
time flies
lows and highs
and thats no surprise
come along for the ride
can you handle the drive?
act on it
cause life can flash before your eyes
