lyrics

(Intro)

On the sands of the desert, you will raise a Pyramid
A structure greater than any other in the world
This Pyramid shall be my resting place
For the second life

(Hook)
This ain’t the end for me
See I’m tryna leave behind a long legacy
I’m tryna redefine my destiny now, now, now
(Let's just be real, tell 'em how you feel)
There ain’t no restin’ see
All the time the grind of life testin’ me
I’m tryna see the light that’s meant for me now, now, now
(Let's just be real, tell 'em how you feel)

(Verse 1)

If I die tomorrow, how will they remember me?
What kinda memories they gonna leave within my legacy?
Will they remember me as a kid who didn’t get to see
The fine things in life, didn’t fulfil his destiny
Please tell me if I sleep tonight and then I don’t wake again
Will they say my faith is whole-hearted or paper thin?
Will they say he always worked hard and he played to win
Or was handed it up on a silver platter, a plate of sin
My body like a vessel, just a vessel of experience
What you see and what you hear don’t make you no inferior
It’s how you comprehend and implement all your surroundings
And start treating life as this truly great, profound thing
I been thinking lately, if the Lord he takes me back to the sky
I don’t want no one to cry, I just want you to smile
If tonight I spread my wings to the skies up above
Just know, I lived this life doing just what I loved

(Hook)

(Verse 2)

If my time is up, see if my clock stop tickin’
Let it show i never did this shit for cash or for the business
See just know, when my pen was writin’ every verse I’ve written
Man you know, I was pure in every single thing I did and man this,
Life is like a gig I never got to soundcheck
If my levels treble or the bass ain’t got it down yet
I apologise, I can’t disguise all of my flaws
But just know I’ll give it all when I hit that stage floor
Did I, rehearse enough, see should I edit the arrangement?
Is this track here sounding rough, is it ready to play yet?
I dunno, this life gig it might be the death of me
See if they boo me or cheer me, won’t let it be the end of me, man
When those doors open to this gig of life
If my set’s a little bumpy, man trust me I’ll get it right
Even though I didn’t soundcheck my set please know
When those doors close I promise you would’ve enjoyed the show

(Hook) x2
