Intro- i've been down this road before at least a hundred times or more Esco- Started from the bottom made it up to here worked up to this point for the last 30 years perplexing emotions feel different but equal To be happy or sad both effect your cerebral This climb's steep and treacherous and challenges our faith we don't give up we see it through and journey everyday Each man controls his own fate and has to make it his own way Dig the trails , clear the path make it easy for his family But eventually that rock erodes and when it breaks down It may not be what he wants but its God's will now Its an empty field when you realize that your rocks gone in them hard times when you turn to lean but theres no one and you face plant on that hard line you lay there and inside you you play back those tough talks when your luck sucked and you fell down and he had to help you up cuz That trust in him to fall back on to be strong when you feel weak It can't stop when that climb calls gotta stand up on your feet Chorus- Inside you lies a flame Can't you hear me calling out your name And you've always had the spark to make it shine Light that fuse and watch your passion fly TP- On the verge of burning alive no reason to stop drop and roll born restless with this soul that I got Lots of drawbacks managing perfecting the flaws now at the point that its to steep with what I'm trying to haul i gotta choose to either stay or just let go of it all and I'm not stupid i know doing this influenced you all but I choose family I won't let this journey ruin us all And Let the music run me over till I'm blue in the balls Even if its true or its false for whatever it cost With all the traditions we've lost My family duty it calls To make the circle revolve and aint no mountain to tall to raise our childeren with a purpose thats the point of it all Every second ...every step.... I've always found a way to climb- up a little higher another way to rise dreaming theres a view that other people cannot see i gotta make it over this there isnt a choice of defeat Chorus- Inside you lies a flame Can't you hear me calling out your name And you've always had the spark to make it shine Light that fuse and watch your passion fly Bridge(TP)- Aw your at the peak now Take a look down Wonderful... Isn't it look around? Now this is the moment... Now don't you ever quit Just listen to the voices as they chatter in your head You've come to far... I would never submit I would never give in And I would always find the the will to win A will to get it a will to survive to the finish Now figure out the next steps and push it to the limit Chorus- Inside you lies a flame Can't you hear me calling out your name And you've always had the spark to make it shine Light that fuse and watch your passion fly

Come On Verse 1 TP- ever since i can remember from being a little kid as i stop and take a look at all the things that I did and realize that I aint finished I aint calling it quits Since time is prescious I can't even waste the time to reminisce When theres a lot more left of living and a little more to give Man I'm not leaving any chance for would coulda but ifs or have regrets and pass on something I could never forgive and if theres passion then the possiblity still exists That I'ma make this happen( happen) Overcome and adapting (dapting) Blast through anything or whatever the challenge and Sacrifice whats not important prioties that I manage Like a tray full of plates I gotta keep it em balance Without dropping a single one or shattering any talents and I know.... deep... inside my mind , Thats...The reason why ... Chorus I've Got to lead the way Lord knows THAT I can't wait No matter what it takes The cards we're dealt to play Got to lead the way No matter what it takes Lord knows I can't wait I've got to... Got to lead the way Verse 2 Esco- Off top buring it up and bout to blow Warming up switch the gears up to volcan-o Everybody ready? Its time to roll Lets shake it on up come on let's go Never follow paths gotta make my own Best to clear the way here come the rolling stones I'm gonna lead the way call it pioneer Front of the pack like a red nose deer You a knock off, we a name brand so knock it off before your girl want our name branded T-P-E-S-C-O we the closeing act about to rock this show Glad you jumoed up on the beat bus baby wheel keep spinning round One thing that I know for sure this rides influenced bound (Influenced Bound) Chorus I've Got to lead the way Lord knows THAT I can't wait No matter what it takes The cards we're dealt to play Got to lead the way No matter what it takes Lord knows I can't wait I've got to... Got to lead the way

Chorus All of these voices echo inside my head at night How can I ever let go not ever knowing why I can't escape the feeling I know whats wrong and right So many different choices, that I don't want to decide Verse 1 TP- Have you ever analyzed your own life and to try simplify To understand and grasp the logic of your state of mind That gives some sort of reason sequencing to tell us why..? Why your where u stand right now, with all these options open skies All these choices wrong or right controlled by things influenced by Science Theology OR religion you decide you define and intertwine in your life and coincide Try'n to find out whats your purpose searching hope to recognize Before you die and press rewind I just hope that you realize Every move we make sub-consciously or not it all applies All these choices bring a change even though some only in disguise Verse 2 Esco- First off its my time and I made that choice to shine bright So if you runnin da wreck game Stay way behind my lime light cuz my rhymes fly from my windpipe and sit right on that track man They let it stay liuke that fat kid waiting up in that snack lane anticipate your next play your lifes just like a chess game got to mitigate those big threats turn them into check mates so whats up its your move so tell me whats up next? On the road to success is to process those next steps Choices either carry direct or indirect consequence The result isn't often synonous without thinking of the obvious effects Like if I do this what changes next and if it happens what should I expect.. Verse 3-Roscoe Yeah, voices inside my head choices inside my mind if thereS poison in this bread I'm hungry enough to die Make noise with the pen loud as a nigga can I've been doing this for years ever since I was ten Every place you ever been you niggas just gettin in I'm the one given lessons you suckas just sitting in Why the fuck you even talking when you should be listening Fuck a secret society, fuck sobriety.. I need something to compromise my anxiety Change my identity lower my notoriety Cuz I won't trust these devils inside this industry that lie to me Chorus All of these voices echo inside my head at night How can I ever let go not ever knowing why I can't escape the feeling I know whats wrong and right So many different choices, that I don't want to decide

Verse1 Jay Love- They say momma didn't raise no fool But its hard to stay cool when you aint got no food Can't fix shit when you aint got no tools So I be looking in the mirror like what can I do Shit I've contemplated suicide.. I seen death around the corner Plus I made it out the corner Cali life limes and Corona Fresh up out the mitten came to Cali cuz its warmer Shit I'm trying to find a better way I'm just a christian that was lead a stray I know my pastor probably hate me from the choice I made But its the choice I made 1 life to live you get your birth and your grave I'm just a slave to my circumstance Came from the bottom trying to make it out by any means Life is but a dream I prolly wouldn't change a thing balling like Labron but I never got a ring Chorus I can't change myself Try and rearrange and well if it fall blame it all on me If this is meant to be my destiny Let it happen blame it all on me Verse 2 TP- Man enough with this gradually you will eventually have to see My aggressive capacities don't just stroll through shit casually Always look for different angles from whatever the masses see I refuse to hear the reason this is just how it has to be So I do what comes naturally Even if its more challenging I approach with tenacity on the chance of insanity and I know I get attached hanging on to things sporadically But I can't grasp the thought of passing the chance on these formalities That just makes me feel pressure, I'm already gasping Can't imagine having the freedom of guilt pursuing something as passionately and knowing this is more than just fantasy fame or gaining something financially believing God gave me these talents and my family to balance me Someone lean on me, if I change directions now then tell me how to be happy? Voices chattering after me only so much time to find No wick left to burn I fade away and press rewind Chorus I can't change myself Try and rearrange and well if it fall blame it all on me If this is meant to be my destiny Let it happen blame it all on me

Reality Verse Overdosing no hope Close your eyes Cope mellow your emotions anxieties approaching Feel awake Grounded finally find something really tangible power in hand Touch of reality , Can't ever get enough of that that feeling that moment it entered this life The center of your attention that you can only describe as something god given meant to be serendipity it seems reality creeping I feel its inevitability sink-ing its teeth deep into me with every gamble i take those dice i'm holding blow em kiss em roll em knowing the stakes cuz i'm addicted to the feeling this way knowing that I could just walk away but whats the point of being rich if you don't ever take a risk Big enough when the advenutre isn't fun to play Now just escape into to the deep blue sea Out on the break, where no goes to see the risk you take, and you could gamble it all Facing all that pressure you know you hande til you balance or fall But stay determined to find a way to stay channeled through things you influenced by Along you travel Just How far will you go.... You gravel the road While unraveling-reality slow Chorus It feels good flying high Catching them vibes Summer time living when you getting it right But when the leaves fall down The sunshine stops Praying that the rain hold up and don't drop But its all keeps falling down Can't turn this plane around When you borrowing time Its hard to rewind All of that gold all of that shine Its not reality Esco Wake up take a look in dat mirror.... where da hell is my refleeection Whose eyes are those so dull wit sadness that face done lost complexion You're a shell of the man that you used to be ....and ur headin in the wrong direction Now How the hell did we wind up here .....both worrysome and Perplexin ...Now da Only time we speak is in a dream of a younger innocent me It seems We're different now.... Ur lost inside and Im lost within Tryn not to hide but that mouth in the mirror moving...Moving....words comin out.... confusin fusin Im Losin it I'm Losin you hear what I said try to fight but im losin... Give me a sign I need it desperately I fight till the damn near death of me But All these signs are like a recipe foor the innevitable death of me Drop to my knees put my hands to the sky Silently Screamin n am I asking God Y As the reflection slowly starts to disipates The answers looking at me the mirror .... welcome Words form on the mirror....... welcome welcome to reality And I drop to my knees and I ask a similar question Wut is it im overlookin I could really use a suggestion before he can answer I wake from my dreams no solutions Im stuck in reality Only Reality and silent screams But before he can answer I awake from my dreams but instead of an answer All im left with is reality and silent screams Before he can answer I awake from my dreams and instead of some kind of definite answer, all Im left wit ....is reality........and silent screams Chorus It feels good flying high Catching them vibes Summer time living when you getting it right But when the leaves fall down The sunshine stops Praying that the rain hold up and don't drop But its all keeps falling down Can't turn this plane around When you borrowing time Its hard to rewind All of that gold all of that shine Its not reality

No matter where you come from No matter where you wanna go Living life aint easy As we walk on down the road Clumsy feet can trip you up Heavy hearts will weight ya down But in the end I know I've found At least a higher ground Where things get alright with the weather But Sunshine can't heal it all Just rebuild what we can before all of the pieces fall And involve a whole lot of regrets and bad events temporarily convinced forgetting theres any chance we can ever make it better instead of just trying to dance were sitting behind the fence and wondering where it went That dream you were chasing or relationships with friemds, To big to swallow your pride let the tension build instead So go ahead and say your sorry send that card to make amends Its never to late to make a change until the oppurtunity ends Chorus Its Better Late, then never Its better late then never I know Go face your problems you got but dont ever You could say your sorry and you were wrong Say your sorry Before the chance is gone Then take it back The world don't work like that It's Better Late, then never Than never , than never, ...yeah Thats a powerful word that can make ya doubt things And Make regrets .....last forever Esco Verse- When we first met at that time it was never right for us but you never gave up on me you would always fight for us In spite of us....states away...seeing other people now I knew that It cut you deep but I didnt see it working out I was too Conservative always scared to take the leap Scared that if it didnt click....love would end up obsolete and you'd retreat broken hearted on back up to michigan and Id be feeling like a jerk cuz I didnt feel it then Shoulda grit my teeth buckled down found a way to work it out But I was too.... immature .....stepping back I realize now So I apologized for everything I put you through And this is what you said to me...I've never given up on you Then .........As the months flew by thought... how could I have ever been the to beee sooo blind Forgive forget apologize live in the moment fall in love Never know..When its too late / and by that time its over-done Chorus Its Better Late, then never Its better late then never I know Go face your problems you got but dont ever You could say your sorry and you were wrong Say your sorry Before the chance is gone Then take it back The world don't work like that It's Better Late, then never Than never , than never, ...yeah Thats a powerful word that can make ya doubt things And Make regrets .....last forever

Let me put you on sumthin to make life betta when u wake Its the smile song and Itll help you start your day And Thats to let us not forget that lifes not that shabby---------------------- Thank God for the gifts in my life like my family Im alive Spending time with the family with the ones that make me happy Collect my thoughts relax n take a shower--------------- Keep the negative at bay cuz I've got that power In the end trust the fortune alooone / wont make you happy Trust me wealthy individuals are just as unhappy So the choice is yours cmon force that smile------------ its contagious watch the faces as you walk on by As they light up you made somebodys day all with a smile Its all about L-o-v-e LOVE - Dont end up on da wrong side of the see saw promise Money nevea give u that Your capable of the happiness youve dreamed of And I can promise that In fact Chorus Jamie Dionne- Money, Cars, clothes all the fancy things you can buy They can sure take up all your time But they still can't make you smile Living your life like a race in a hurry Maybe you just should slow on down And Take a break from the stress and all the pressure for a second knowing nothing's gonna bring you down Verse- Now I'm not trynna to act like i know an easy fix or anedote for when you feeling sad or that..... you supposed to feel guilty for all of that success and all them really nice things you have... come on But i''m sure you agree how easy it is to get caught up Anytime ya feeling down and bored with life you went and Bought a .... brand new car or a house on the water And just look at ya now Ya feeling happy ? kind a? sort a? Well Aren't ya? Ya hear me? Then Gimme an answer I'm JUST wond-er-ing how can that be When people avoid ya like cancer Pleasured by the temporary Bliss and ya never even notice Never venture deep into the root and really try to focus On what makes you happy what makes you smile Not the the semi-colon end parentheses that you reply or the comments on your status or how many likes you can aquire Like my momma always told me, "Trav its something much higher" Chorus Jamie Dionne- Money, Cars, clothes all the fancy things you can buy They can sure take up all your time But they still can't make you smile Living your life like a race in a hurry Maybe you just should slow on down And Take a break from the stress and all the pressure for a second knowing nothing's gonna bring you down
