[Hook: Glensky]

High rises, day breaks

Clouds hide the sun’s rays

Quick sand and mistakes

Smash walls to get through

I fight the good fight

Even on the bad days

It’s darkest before light

I’m gonna push through

[Verse 1: Curren$y]

Turbo charged bars

Slot cars on tracks, falling off, game stars in these rap wars

Ain’t nothing band-aids won’t cover

Touring with 7D coverage

Live bands, two buses, my own cash

No budget, no major label fundings, Jets baby

We went from crawling to walking to running

You can’t see nothing, you under gag order

Hopping out of Audi’s hurting y’all with kicks, I’m the Transporter

Think about it, never mind, you ain’t gotta

I’m already on some whole other, word to yo mu’fuckin’ self

Nobody else gon’ do it for ya, nobody else

Every now and then someone’ll offer ya help, but they ain’t doing nothing

‘Til they really see you tryna do something, I ain’t bluffing

Kush puffing on you jive turkeys

Stuffing stockings with these gifts

Audible applaudables homie take a wiff

[Hook]

[Verse 2: Talib Kweli]

When you a man, action is what’s expected, nothing is spoken on

Producer never got time for no excuses, gotta go beyond

My flow is tom-foolery

I smoke these poor rappers so fast they call me charcuterie

I beautifully exude the vibe that’s free of ambiguity

Ya goonery for the sake of goonery is cartoons to me

It’s coonery, it’s lunacy, let’s make a plan

Only way that you hang is attached to a tree

The moon talk to the sea and speak the body language fluently

She make it rain

When I’m on fire, she always try to douse me

Only reason that you make it rain is ‘cause your diamonds cloudy

I see you from a mile away when it get overcast

Old people feel it in they bones, invade your home like a broken glass

And let myself in, fighting for freedom like the people in Tunisia

Spread through Sudan and Egypt, this the music for the movement

The score to your achievements, never join ‘em so you gotta beat ‘em

It’s carpe diem hey (hey) yeah

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]

Like kindergarteners

My vision’s bothered by vigilantes that harbor on street corners

Try your hardest to harvest bundles of weed on ya

The starving’ll speed on ya, stampede on ya

Impede on your pockets then pee on ya

Dreams of us living lavish in fabrics of fine linens

Spending, established, with women dining and laughing

But this environment got us violent, ready to crash in

To society, take this driver seat, hope you fastened

Your seatbelts twice, when I rolled them dice, I crapped

So many times I can build casinos from scratch

Too many daps you might receive from the things you achieve, relax

That’s what my mental say, but my physical’s been detached, I’m on some other shit

Like fuck the government, I’m higher rankings, where’s the mothership?

I made a covenant that I was changing but my luck is bent

Quite disgusting when reality tainted, where the fuck you been?

Left him face down like he was planking

In a cold world where old girl and her homeboy got a motive

You can bench curl your tribulations, that sensation’s insulting

Got a wifey or a mistress, nigga which one you indulging?

Regardless of who you pick know life’s a bitch when you ain’t focused nigga

I’m focused

[Hook]
