Lyrics

Prevail:
Before I fade to black in this shaded shack
In a box with handles and my family in back
I will have achieved my life in leads of paper that kept me safer
Then hanging with thieves
I've been in the big house but not for long
But long enough to know it's hard to make songs
I played my cards and kept moving along
Hooked up with mad child and righted my wrongs
You don't continue with circles we generate light so
365 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 8 pads covered with blood ad scabs
I love what I have but I will progress, and I do everyday when
I take my first step
It's all about breath when it's done im gone and death is a pawn in a game on a
Board of which im on. I've had a sword in my palms from the very first track
That were cut and mastered and released under battle axe
It's nice to know that I've been a part of something reversal
Camoflouged.

Chorus:
Yo it's funny how time flys
Lifes its lows and highs,and that's no surprise
Come along for the ride, can u handle the drive?
Act on it cause life could flash before your eyes
Time flys- lows and highs- and that's no surprise
Come along for the ride, can you handle the drive?
Act on it cause life could flash before your eyes

Mad child:
Before I'm layed to rest im a do my best
Cause the biggest death threat is too many regrets
And I aint going out like I wonder what woulda happened if I'd never given
Up-kept on rapping
It's been so many years of blood, sweat and tears
Fears to overcome so im gonna give it my all, and when it's last call
At least there will be no question. and if I fall, I'll know it just wasnt my
Destiny- maybe it's not meant to be, but eventually I guarantee I'll satisfy
Myself mentally
I'm sick and tired of the position required. I appreciate it but I've seen
Visions of fire- a premination, spiritually awakened with doses of moments of
Magic to take it
We'll keep it moving and go at it whole-hearted. mad child works the hardest to
Finish what he started

Chorus

Mad child- there's no time to waste
Prevail- we move with grace
Mad child- one life to embrace
Prevail- yo, it feels like a race

Both- nameless faces in a dangerous place

Prevail- the strange and great
Mad child- rearrange in taste

Both- from almost nothing to almost something
Prevail- from no one listening
Mad child- to everybody jumpin

Both- kings on the mic, we got kings on production
Fuck falling of this is just an introduction

Chorus
