pagen elypsis - one hit away (zarkov remix) lyrics
[verse 1: purpose]
if i could take you back to the first cypher i rapped in
and document my life as it happened
you’d see why i feel the need to grind like i have been
and why i don’t have time to stop and smile for the cameras
ain’t n0body gonna help you get yours
but whether self+taught or mentored, just step forward
me? i’m a little bit of both
learned a little bit from poh, the rhythm and the flow
a little bit from motive and trigger helped me grow (what up?)
so i couldn’t say i did it on my own (nah, man)
but look, see, no hands
your boy’s back with the beats to make the scenе go mad
over time it seems i’ve found my strеngth in the vibe from the crowd i get (yo, react! it’s why we goin’ out!)
not yet, give me one last dance
and i’ll rest easy knowin’ i made one more fan, because
[chorus: purpose & k+dawg]
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here is one hit away
don’t get me wrong, there’s some stars up there
but they all had to start somewhere
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here is one hit away
don’t get me wrong, there’s some stars up there
but they all had to start somewhere (yeah)
lace your boots up, kid
[verse 2: k+dawg]
feels like it’s been like a lifetime of rappin’
for many years+year+year+year+year+year that happened then
hopes were made and a lot of dreams were shattered
but i still roll with the ones that really mattered
for me, hip+hop was a second chance
and when you get a grasp, you ain’t ever gonna let it pass
and we never gonna finish last
so much success, bro, better get yourself a glass
and we’ve been flat on our +rs+
and we can’t abandon our past
and we just had to surpass all the drama and conflict
‘cause we’ve got mountains to conquer
don clique, got no other option
but to stop the prophets from wanderin’ off it
that’s it, i got nothin’ to say
but we still just one hit away
[chorus: purpose]
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here is one hit away
don’t get me wrong, there’s some stars up there
but they all had to start somewhere
lace your boots up, kid
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here is one hit away
don’t get me wrong, there’s some stars up there
but they all had to start somewhere
lace your boots up, kid
[verse 3: motive]
if this happened to be my very last verse on my very last song
i’d have to wonder where it all went wrong
have to be happy that i lasted this long
one beat away in the heart i spit from (one beat)
every mic i gripped on, stage i rapped on
page that i scribble my tracks on
was all in the name of buildin’ a dream
now i taste that struggle every meal that i eat
there’s a reason they feel what i speak
i don’t rob from the poor, nor steal from the weak
gave to the needy, take when i have to
but let’s call it even, i always give it back to ‘em
i spit a track to ‘em, yo, i justified
every mistake i made by makin’ somethin’ right
my life could never be summarised in one song (why’s that?)
‘cause i know exactly where i come from
[chorus: purpose]
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here is one hit away
don’t get me wrong, there’s some stars up there
but they all had to start somewhere
lace your boots up, kid
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here is one hit away
don’t get me wrong, there’s some stars up there
but they all had to start somewhere
lace your boots up, kid
[verse 4: prime]
between the first time i ever rapped and the last time i penned a track
i’ve been through more ups and downs than freddie mac
but when i reflect on that, i’ll never regret the fact
there’s one part of my youth i never had and i won’t get it back
made a slow start, never used to be on any tracks
from comin’ off the dome to doin’ more shows than eddie had
who wants to be a millionaire? yeah the sk!lls were there
we had to phone a friend because the general public didn’t care, yeah
before i look to perform
there’s always a verse to perfect and a hook to record
world’s best with a pen without a book in a store
no one said, “thank god you’re here” when i put my foot in the door
but, man, i improvised, i took on some of the world’s
most complicated operations, made the sh+t look simplified
and my patience didn’t die, so next time you think of prime
don’t forget to look out for that hit of mine
[chorus: purpose]
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here is one hit away
don’t get me wrong, there’s some stars up there
but they all had to start somewhere
lace your boots up, kid
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here+here+here one+one+one+one+one+one+one
don’t get me wrong+wrong+wrong+wrong, star+star there+there+there
but they all had to start+start+start where
lace your boots up, kid
[verse 5: poheticut]
one hit, one chance to start
and one moment awaits one hand to grasp it
opportunity demands an answer
and it don’t come back around like karma
and i can’t change the rules
so i’d rather put work in than blame the tools (knuckle down)
i’d rather be the one who makes the calls
than act like a f+ckin’ sheep and get played by wolves
i can’t say my line’s been straight (uh, uh)
i got to admit that i wasted my shot to shine
‘cause time don’t wait
now i can’t tell my friends and fam that i’ve made it (not yet)
but i’ll make it ‘cause i’ve got faith
and i’m still just one hit away
one f+ckin’ moment, one more chance to own it
devoted to the pen till my casket closes
[chorus: purpose]
the humblest way to look at your career
is everybody in here is one hit away
don’t get me wrong, there’s some stars up there
but they all had to start somewhere
lace your boots up, kid
