about
This record came together in the initial recording of the project when it was still named Now Or Never. Going back to what I said earlier about taking a look at life and when it's time to move on, in the same breath it can be said that when you're in too deep, it's nearly impossible to go back. No matter how often I feel ready to walk away because I feel I haven't reached a level of success I know I'm capable of, I don't honestly see myself being able to step away. Not anytime soon at least. I could never sell a record in my life and you couldn't tell me I can't hang with some of the top artists today. At the end of the day it comes to visibility and your brand being recognized and I don't have the financial backing to go against a major label artist. That won't stop me from attacking the Indies and releasing a good album out yearly. Like I said, I'm in too deep at this point to stop now.
lyrics
Verse One:
They telling me, they telling me that this a dead end
Why even try if you can not win
Yes this road is rocky but it is not the end
And why would you even doubt me, you suppose to be my friend
A wolf in a disguise, walking around in sheep's skin
And problems are like dust, let them float away in the wind
Doing this forever but when did it all begin
Got some things up on my mind, and I can not pretend
Like it does not bother me, its taking so long
Compliants up in my metaphors, singing the same song
This must be the 2pocalypse, me against the world
I can not trust a soul, looking sideways at my girl
Guess this is life, decisions mixed with Karma
Today feels like yesterday, tomorrow filled with drama
So I write til I can't no more, the page about burn
And if you can not tell I'm at the point of no return
Verse Two:
My heart telling me one thing, my mind on some other shhh
My soul says do not give up but my body's about to quit
That why I'm so confused, I'm caught up in the mix
Just because you ignore the problems do not mean they don't exist
So I put my all in every single thing I do
Haters in ya circle they just jealous of you
Mad they life didn't pan out they way they want it to
So they try to bring you down, but do not let'em dude
They calling me a dreamer, like Martin Luther King a
Nigga like me, will never proceed to fall victim to the rumors
A nigga like me, will always be two steps ahead of you brah
And your insecurity's the elephant in the room ugh
So I will not let it bother me, they just don't understand me
Trying to escape my shadow, like Ray J did to Brandy
So I write til I can't no more, the page about burn
And if you can not tell I'm at the point of no return
Verse Three: (8 bars)
Yes I'm at the point, I'm at the point of no return
Calling up the waitress cuz I need my table turned
Still flirting with death, will I ever learn
But when life's a bitch, she don't care you get burned
I got a son to provide for, so now the problems ten fold
But my view of the world is skewed from my project window
So I write til I can't no more, the page about burn
And if you can not tell I'm at the point of no return
