Sometimes in this thing called life You go through the ups and downs and wonder What's it all for But during those times, I look to God above Hold onto my faith and know that the answers come along the journey These are my reflections I glare beyond the horizon through the blue hue Think of Brotha Bob and Small World they left us too soon I let my mind go to places that are untapped Sometimes I wish I could zone out and never come back Vibes euphoric, where black can never be the new orange We'd all be kings and queens and the youth would know it I believe in the blood of Jesus my soul was sordid But if Allah makes you a better man then I'm all for it Are you livin' your life? Or are you livin' for them Tomorrow is not promised cuz you never know when You cease to exist I've seen it too many times Cats snuffed out like that mostly by our own kind We're believing the lies, the truth's compromised But one day we shall rise, cuz God's on our side My shell may not see it but my spirit's protected Jewels are multiplied thru infinite reflections In my time I've been through lows and seen some highs But now I'm livin' my best life I'm onto new directions These are my reflections I got that resurrection flow, the message's pure God, family, friends are first the rest is bull If you ain't in my corner then clear the vestibule I'll bury the opposition these haters can watch and listen persistent won't stop cuz one day I'll prevail Keep my faith as I navigate life's travails These back biters claimin' that they gon' pray for me In reality they really ain't got nay for me So I cleaned my closet and swept out fake homies I deposit the lessons from all they taught me I pay no never mind to these critics I spit it, it's over ya head you can admit it Some are trapped in the box their mindset's too rigid Tryin' to pull on heart strings instead of stackin' dem digits Tryin' to make sure my off spring gets it, I feed him lessons So even when I'm gone they can feel my reflections In my time I've been through lows and seen some highs But now I'm livin' my best life I'm onto new directions These are my reflections As I scanned the globe, I began to know Payback came of age not the man of old Exhausted with perception my success is an anomaly If you walked in my shoes then you'd feel the same probably But I've never been a quitter I disprove the concept My neurotransmitters are immune to such nonsense Doin' what I wanna, steady with maneuvers No time for dream killers, screw you Freddy Kruegers We ain't cut the same I'm from a different realm Influenced by street soldiers gone on fifths of Crown Couldn't understand then but I gets it now So I spit urban tales of how that shit went down Uggh Watts Up! they want us locked up not a notch up Never forget how the block was Wasn't innocent things could've turned out real different Blessed is this Eastside denizen, reflections In my time I've been through lows and seen some highs But now I'm livin' my best life I'm onto new directions These are my reflections
