Lyrics

Every day when I wake up, I'm glad as fuck
That I'm blessed with a gift and I've had the luck
To express, progress, putting in the effort to get out of the mess
I just work at it
Now I've been given the chance
To sing and dance and get paid on stage
Used to be filled with rage
But thanks to discovering this hiphop art I've broken out of the cage
I just needed time to see how to be at ease with me (myself)
But now I work hard everyday and I do it easily
I stay motivated to stay creative
And the days instigated me to stay dedicated and I made it
Yep, I stuck to it
Wouldn't budge for a fuck to it
And when I said: 'Just screw it'
They said: 'Don't do it Philly, stick to your school or your job
You're a fool if your future gets robbed by this pipe dream!'
But to me it's a hype dream
It don't pay the bills but it keeps me clean!
I stay motivated!
Five o'cock in the morning, yawning
Eyes are burning and I take it as a warning
To go sleep, but I'm way too deep
Sunk in my own thoughts and I'm drunk
Did a phat gig and I blew up the stage
Came home to open up my rhymebook on it's last page where I left it
Still writing despite the fact that my senses tell me not to
You know I got to
And I'm most creative during the night and I'm motivated to do it
Despite the fact nobody wants to share the pie
Play fair, look you in the eye with a glare when they lie
Hotdamn!
Every drop of energy within me, the man, goes in the masterplan whenever it can
More clever than most
Eyes on the prize cause it feels so close
I'm motivated!
I take my rymebook, my phone and my keys
Jump on the train open my agenda; let's see
Gotta call such and such about so and so
Gotta send this dude the demo
Put my man on the promo I need my expenses compensated
So the call I made it
Gotta put him on hold though, got a second call
Uhuhuhum, well no problem at all
I'll see him in a minute and I'm right on my way
Got the new EP with me and he'll get it today
Arrived where I needed to be
Arrived where I bleed it to be
The man who saw the hunger that he needed to see
Connected, Unexpected venture round three
Up in amsterdam quarter to three
Perquisite what is it?
Yo, you're late for your visit again but nevermind yo, come in my friend!
I stay motivated!
I stay motivated
I stay motivated
I stay motivated
I stay motivated
I stay motivated
I stay motivated
I stay motivated
