Momento Mori

If you guys are serious about making it out of this ghetto

You got to focus, you got to stop blaming people for your problems

And you've got to learn

How to rap or play basketball or something, **** you're trapped, you are trapped

Either do that or sell crack

That's your only option, that's the only way I've ever seen it work

Go on out there and be somebody

I just hope they listen

Nothing in this world is gonna stop me, nah

There can be nothing in my pockets that won't break my heart

That won't break my resolve, I'm breaking curses and all

They steady see me doing it, they not gonna see me stop

I'm alive, who not?

That's the question for real, cause people living like they let their own dreams get killed

If I'm alive, guess what, with every breath I feel

Everything I ever wanted is right over the hill

And I can see it, so here I go, climbing to the top

The taste of victory is near, closer than the times that it's not

I'm so focused on the finish, I forgot about the plot

I'm so focused on me winning, I'm not present with my thoughts

And in that moment I slip up, my imperfection is abrupt

And now I can't escape this feeling that my hard work ain't enough

So as I fall right to the ground, I'm left with what needs to get up

I look at failure and I say I'm better than this, cause nothing's gonna stop me

Nothing's gonna stop me (yea yea)

Nothing's gonna stop me (oooh)

Nothing's gonna stop me

Nothing's gonna stop me

Nothing in the whole world (nothing)

Nothing in the whole world, nothing

I got up, studied down, figured out, what I need

Gave me grace, gave me time, just to process everything

On my knees, prayed to God to get me through anything

He delivered, so should I, look at that, upswing

I'm back up the hill again, thinking I should've stayed down

Cause; I'm back at where I fell, and now my eyes are on the ground

I'm so focused on the past, I can't see where I'm at right now

I did so much to get right here, just to find out it ain't enough

I'm so afraid of letting go and letting everybody down

That I slipped up without thinking this time it was with a smile

Cause' I fell better than before, at least that's something to be proud

I'm faced with failure once again, but deep down

I know nothing's gonna stop me

Nothing in the whole world

Nothing in the whole world

Yea

This time around I'm so determined

I done dealt with everything before that could hurt him

I embraced the challenges that were meant to outwork me

Raised up the bar and I began on my journey

Once again I'm at the same spot I got stuck at

This the last time I'll be here and I can trust that

As I pass by what it is, I reach an honest conclusion

Self-sabotage was the reason why I kept losing

The biggest feat was myself and now I got that proven

Because I'm at the top of the hill with my healed up bruises

I celebrate in the moment and cherish it cause I own it

I thank me and my God for reaping what I was sowing

I look ahead to the side and see another opponent

Another hill I can climb, another stage of growing

With everything that I learned, I know one thing is for certain

There ain't nothing bout to stop me, so I'ma keep on going

Till I die

Nothing's gonna stop me

Nothing's gonna stop me

Nothing's gonna stop me

Nothing's gonna stop me
