Nine Lives - Borrowed Time

Praise God that change is coming
I should've been dead but it gave me life
Perseverance in the ring, I'm gonna fight
Pass to the present its day and night

Putting in work is harvest time
I got a full plate but that's alright
Cause I got a hell of an appetite
Remember the name, I'm gonna take flight

Put on the beat, I devour it
I'm going all in, I refuse to quit
Bring up my name when I'm not around
I guess that's what a coward is

I refuse to lose, gotta pay my dues
You talking shit but can't fill my shoes
All you do is contradict my moves
Pretending to care but you hope that I lose

I'm locked and loaded, I'm ready for war
I jumped in the game and I'm ready to soar like a phoenix
From the ashes, I found my passion
I'm back at it, somebody lit the fuse

Sound the alarm, no time to snooze
If I set some goals, I'ma see it through
I know I'm an addict, I'm not a mute
Connecting with God so I stay in tune

I give it my all, I got nothing to lose
Gotta keep pushing but learn patience
Time for a breather, that's ventilation
Lack of progress, that's stagnation

Outgrow your circle, it's time to change it
They're sleeping on me but they finally waking
I'm bringing the pressure and I am not breaking
With God on my side and the crown of salvation

I look at the haters, I see the frustration
With fuel to the fire, I seek elevation
I'm changing my ways, that's transformation
The man in the mirror, I finally face him

The demons that lurkin and I finally tame em
Satan's attacking, I won't let him break me
The negative talking, I won't let it phase me
Aim for the top, I'm not needing assistance

They're sleeping on me, not a clue what you're missing
I'm fully committed, I got a clear vision
I'm back
I'm back
