There comes a time in life when you question the rules
Not every rhythm is supposed to sound cool
Not every motivation is meant to be your fuel
Not every information is stamped from school
Sometimes in life one has to play the fool
Talk is cheap in a world where everyone is broke
They hide behind their lies and wear it as a cloak
They will try to burn you and meditate with your smoke
They fear the greatness in you because it makes them choke
Talk is cheap, read the lines between their joke
When it rains it pours, when you cry it floats
Emotions are not weakness, wear them like a coat
Keep your head up but protect your throat
Why would they only give you milk when they know you are lactose ?
When it rains it pours, make sure you soak in the notes
Always remain loyal to your future and not your past
Whatever was should remain in contrast
Whatever is should not be bound by typecast
The past was once present, which of your gifts will last ?
Always remain loyal to your future for it holds the key to your craft
Never shy away from being different, always remain unique
Don’t let them look at you.., but make them value you as an antique
When you open your mouth let them feel the weight in what you speak
Humble yourself in silence and listen to what it means
Never shy away from being different, nor argue against critics
There comes a time in life when you question the rules
Not every information is stamped from school
Not every motivation is meant to be your fuel
Not every rhythm is supposed to sound cool
There comes a time in life when you just have to play the fool
