Rocksteady

 

"Beware the false motives of others"
Anyone can betray you
Why who i called mother wasn't even my mother...
The lessons of my life are astounding
i will exceed expectations
Till the crowd's cheers are resounding
The heart of a champion
In me an ancient heart beat still pounding
"I'd rather die for something than live for nothing"
Those words became my battle cry
Every time i failed i would wipe the sweat from my brow
& give it one more try
Why ask JUST why...
i keep 5 other loyal fighting men
Who, how, where, what, and when...
They would lead me to lands foreign
Pushing foreigns
Laying with foreigners
Exotic, intoxicating, enchanting ladies and liquors
Tastes and smells
Such memories i would never sell
i'm repping my hood and i'm repping it well
A long lost land
an often cursed
corner of hell
Spanish Harlem
A place I called the crucible
Real recognize Real
The truth has a certain ring to it
If you listen to it
It will tell
You who to trust
& who was destined to fail
Meant for greatness
I brushed off your betrayals
Yo no soy marinero
Yo soy capitan
Wha happen?
You didn't think i could right my ship?
Not only have i done just that...
Steady as she goes
I got this down pat...
Now no one can take my freedom from me...
i confidently and boldly sail the seas!
