lyrics

Intro:
Never have the nations of the world had so much to lose or so much to gain
Together we shall save our planet
Or together we shall perish in its flames
Save it we can and save it we must
And then shall we earn,
The eternal blessing of God

[J.P.]
None of you lames got the best of me
Now this is ’93 til infinity
Keep your friends closer than your enemies
Cus it’s not the other way around, literally
Be more open minded to the mind please
Killem with kind words cus this world peace
Is slowly dying to the death of me, with the rest of me
Time and time again, World War III isn’t the recipe
It’s not about the doobies rolled up, not about the Henny
Not about the Prada, Louis V’s, or the Gucci
But what the hell do I know, I’m still 18
Never even smoked that Kush, or sipped that lean
J. Cole make the struggle seem beautiful,
I’m just tryna make you feel it, so mutual
Got a dollar and a dream, real niggas on my team
Everything ain’t what it seems, ya’ll don’t hear it though

This is how I feel I can’t be still
This is how I feel I can’t be still
This is how I feel I can’t be still
This is how we chill from ’93 til
This is how we chill from ’93 til
This is how we chill from ’93 til

All I ask is for a little recognition,
Sit and wonder why everything that we wishin’ just won’t fall into place
Why it feel like somethings missin’
No more waiting, it’s bout time I live the life, and get a little taste
Of what was meant to be
What it’s supposed to be
How many failures does it take for a man to succeed?
For the world to be at ease, be at happiness and peace
Only one way, you just gotta believe
So many trapped souls waiting to be free
Feeling so alive but I still can barely breath
It’s like I’m screaming out loud but no one can hear
And everybody they be judging by the sh*t that you wear
All these fake friends acting like they really do care
But when you get up to the top you gon’ know who was really there
To the ones who stopped and stared, disappear
To the ones who said, “Through everything you persevere.”
To the ones who told me, “If you want it, face your fears.”
To the ones who stuck around, throughout the years
Take a moment cus we made it here
So raise your glasses up high as I’m yelling cheers

[Sophisticated]
This is how I chill from 93 till
In 93, I was born with the will to kill
Usain Boltin' I'll leave you shocked at the track meet
My stature was only made for the stat sheets
Speakin of sheets, go to sleep kids
I can tell when my competition speaks fear
Your vision sank, I see sick, not sea sick
Lone ranger flow, I'm one deep to make the beat six
Feet deep after I chalk em out
Steppin stone bars, that is somethin you cannot walk without
Spittin substance, you watered down talkin about amounts
I'm Galludet when it comes to talkin bout your sound
Frank Luke cyphers cause I been dope
Sacred like the Sermon on the Mount, take cliff notes
Evidently I am such a different pedigree
Top dog reppin uptown til the death of me

This is how I feel I can’t be still
This is how I feel I can’t be still
This is how I feel I can’t be still

Aw shit, it’s too ill
Hol’ up

This is how we chill from ’93 til
This is how we chill from ’93 til
This is how we chill from ’93 til
Infinity
