[00:09.00] Lord if they only knew them nights it took
[00:11.63] Burnt candles by the dozen to ignite the soul fire
[00:14.19] Sheer energy to release to melt the heart
[00:16.38] Mind starved voice craved onto wax (and still get taxed)
[00:19.08] Relax, unrest unless undressed to the core
[00:22.40] Ever so slowly, wash away old skin like springs of sulfur
[00:25.86] So far, so good what's life got to offer?
[00:28.45] Youth stare curiously analyze the facts
[00:30.91] Who's there to encourage give a pat on their back
[00:33.15] How come society wanna grow and ignore
[00:35.50] Small dreams, big team now every work is a chore
[00:37.87] I adore each step, hop skip a cadence
[00:40.32] Travel distant in the age of decadence
[00:42.77] Do this in reverence to the older veterans
[00:45.43] Stripes on their chest plus a chip on their shoulder
[00:47.62] Street soldiers cut without severance,
[00:49.83] But keep hustling anyways for the L or the F of it
[00:52.98] Effervescent light guide the way,
[00:54.67] Fear no evil, once lost now found
[00:57.00] Like the last man down in the towering inferno of Babylon
[01:00.30] First In Last Out
[01:06.20] Thirstin' first drop just wet my appetite
[01:08.96] But couldn't satisfy my craving for beats
[01:11.31] Wrapped tight like a Christmas gift
[01:13.90] 'Tis night is an eve for a generation to uplift
[01:16.00] Live life like a testimony
[01:18.03] Simple rhymes in difficult times help a friend
[01:20.18] Through a lonely tunnel at the end, Every maze is a funnel into a wine bottle
[01:23.41] And corked inside a message so mind boggling, a puzzle
[01:28.06] Amazed at the grace having reached a goal
[01:30.41] Knock twice on the gate heaven preach a soul
[01:32.56] True knowledge of self shine brighter than all
[01:34.92] For one part getting polished you better the whole
[01:37.37] The sum of the characters carry over your role
[01:39.61] 24-karat gold, each day is a jewel
[01:42.16] Case closed when the end credits roll
[01:44.10] Self-representative and elected, yes I
[01:46.75] Give and get give back to the constituents
[01:49.34] Sit you in a chair and break down the affairs
[01:51.60] There's nuthin fashionable
[01:53.55] About arriving late in the game and acting OG
[01:56.10] Cuz you can't pay dues with credit or cash
[01:58.60] Quicktime soft players streaming all the Flash
[02:01.06] So I'm sticking copper pins into media outlets
[02:03.31] Then I hop up in the black van and then I'm out
[02:05.56] Let's get wit the program, drop the Dow Jonesing down
[02:08.33] We keep underground dowsing
[02:10.27] Microphones iron casting, everlasting sound
[02:12.86] Blasting, no doubt first in last out
[02:20.31] F.I.L.O, I'd rather do nuthin else
[02:22.51] If I follow my heart to the last pulse
[02:24.95] Like the last man down in the towering inferno of Babylon
[02:28.25] First In Last Out
