The Long Run-reality wraps
verse 1
Funny how when ya forced to reshuffle/Tha deck can end up stacked in ya favor/Can set a divine chain of events off/Dat begin wit lovin thy neighbor/Helpin one shovel so there heart isn’t stressed/Easin da struggle prevent cardiac arrest/When a Good Samaritan go down God will another/To uplift/Bless da good Doc for CPR on his chest/When you walk in faith it strengthen steps/Pray tingz fall in place give thanks fa da rest/At night when I’m awake I think about life left/How many lives could be saved/If we all had life lines in da palm of our hand/Cards dealt held close to chest like clothes to chest/Could close a hole in da Heartland/Where it’s known to be cold sub zero mortal kombat/Till we come back warm/Seen some beat odds dat defy hueman norm/1 percenter who motor skills returned/Gladiator dat learned/Slow Down is a bar for records to break since dey skip beats dey right mo’ Dan twice a day/When you up Saddle Creek Pacesetter pace-make/A leader always will/Find a way/Long as da spark remain da soul defibrillate]

verse 2
Watch yo step next could be a doozy/Best bet don’t trip on da loose leaf/Already fell don’t fall fo paper musing/Can tell if one hadn’t done what dey tell you to be doin/Speak from experience survived open-heart surgery/Now me and my brother from another mother are twinnin/ Ducked fatal uppercut still swingin for da fences/Tied in a race in 3rd grade den befriended/Ever since been winnin/Da annual track meet made playground legends/Scholarly athletes transitioned into business/Rock gyms and physical fitness/PSA BSA here to stay and still climbin/Champion minded will adapt to any climate/Multiple degrees most important to me is elementary kinda/ Memories to retrieve when you need a reminder/Masters of minds have muscle memory providin/Involuntary survival verse live curveball/Read da sign/If you non verbal/See when to slide know when to hurdle/Life’s obstacle course it’s a musical beautiful disaster/Ultimately we not da author merely actors/Ultimately we reality wrappers]
