Lyrics ASCENSION (OUTRO) - Sun Light

There's more to it, let me tell you
Yea, yea

What you know about progression huh
Grinding to be a professional
My cocked gun is the pencil drawn
Writing the path I'm progressing on
What you know about elevation
Higher learning and some meditation
Getting yourself off the medication
Fabricated minds can't comprehend it
Never ending the struggle but coping with it
Victorious finish, I hope I get it
But I won't get it just sitting around so
I think of a rhyme til it's copacetic
Open letters written with a closed mind
Expanding my reach til I'm gon' find
Something better to climb with than old twine
Just a branch from someone with a strong mind
Lend your hand out, I don't see none
Guess I'm by myself until I see some
Just anything even an opinion
Just to help a man get through the season
I'm just tryna convert all my leisure
And my spare time into freedom
But the weights were breaking and the burdens of mine
Were outweighing all my precious time
So you know what I did? What? I jumped up out the blue and grinded so hard
Who cares if the engine won't start
Just start with sheer will and then don't stop
Bars so perfect like Mozart
I roll deep until the flow starts
I'm gon' sleep until my alarm
Wakes me out the coma and I bombard
Even at 5 in the morning my mind is racing enough to pull apart
And deconstruct the words on the page like a sword
I'm a sensei of sorts, I'm a soldier
With a thought in my brain I can conquer the world
And drag them along like a tow ball
And I plough through competitors destined to win
And I eat all you rappers like coleslaw
So where do I go? I know I'm low
So my only choice is up the totem pole
One step at a time, I know it's slow
But its quicker than all of these so and so's
So when I blow it's more emotional though
Cause the journey was long like Pinocchio nose
And the haters get lost in the roll of the flow
While the people are proud of a bloke on a throne
And I'll show it to 'em
Some might say that I overdo it
But the time to be open is overdue
And I'mma show you my throes til I grow into it
All the music I make is like coal to fuel it
And the inspiration is what drove me to it
If you're wondering what I've been talking about
It's the change in my life and I'm going through it
You could call it a phase like the album name
Or a stage in my life where I'm bound to change
But it couldn't be rushed, no andale
Had to take a lil' time but I'm on my way
I'mma wait till I am in my own grave
'Fore I put down the pen and not drown a page
But for now all the rhyme books are gonna blaze
With no sign of a tsunami water wave
I'm using emotions as cannon fodder
How many instruments can I conquer
Using the strategies I learnt from Hannibal
Not the one with all the lambs to slaughter
Learning to grow with my differences
One of the ways that I became a Sam-a-holic
And all the beats that I eat
Got me feeling like I got an issue that's metabolic
Back in the day I would come into contact with issues
And back then I ran from all 'em
Learnt that I had to confront it, stop running
I'm putting my pains into sanded coffins
Kill 'em all, I'm rising above it
Murder a track, just find me a subject
Name a syllable I haven't spun yet
And just like a drug I'll be high off of one hit
On a better level than these fly rappers
Look how far I've come using my practice
Look at all the techniques I've mastered
How did I become so dynamic
I could go on forever bout my process and all of my progress
But I'd rather show you what I've conquered and all I've accomplished
So I let the bars leak out the faucet, till my art is flawless
I adapted to my problems until I could solve em
I'm putting in my ten-thousand hours
'Till thousands of crowds are all shouting my talent
Slowly developing sound that I'm proud of
And I did it all without prowling with Prada
True to myself, never needed assurance
A prodigy perfecting punches and prowess
I've pounded the clock for a while now I'm pounding the charts
'Til I come out on top of this mountain
Heh, what do you say to that
I'm fighting hard for this game of rap
I aim, attack and slay the track
And my mindset is rising like flames and ash
Way back in the past my brain collapsed
And the music I put out was same as trash
But it had to be done or I wouldn't be
Where I am now in this world and I'm stating facts
Ascending with knowledge I've built over time
And I'll always be learning to shape my craft
Becoming the person I want to be
Grinding my way up the ladder and take the flag
You say you're the GOAT, well I'm writing my bars on your parchment
The closest you'll get to collab
Been working hard on my ascension into one of the greats of rap
