Yeah

You can't tell us what the fuck to do

You can stay inside your little well-prepared box

We step out of that shit like a homeless man trying to change his life

We do it so fresh

And we do what the fuck we wanna do

Yo, me and E, we get dumb retarded

Up in Star Trek territory, space uncharted

Far from the formulas we get bombarded with

We're just trying to reach our target

Audience which is beyond the sun

And they won't hear this 'til 3001

So when I speak out, I'ma speak loud as a gun

To cut through the sound of E pounding the drum

I rep where I'm at and I rep where I'm from

And I'll rep where I've been when my journey is done, man

I know that one day I gotta die

So until then I make myself feel high

'Cause music is a powerful thing

And if you move out of line, it's a powerful sting

I pace around in the booth like a boxer moving 'round in a ring

And confidently knock you out in one swing

Ayo, I'm not really a religious person

But it's more than a physical force that I'm immersed in

My religion is music

And you can doubt all you want, I ain't come here to prove shit

Day by day, I just try to solidify my little life

(And the trumpets blow)

Day by day, I just try to solidify my little life

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Yo, the world's full of pain and misery

I feel it every day even when I don't project it visibly

It's something I wasn't prepared for

I went to the music and asked what I was there for

I said I came for the healing

I came so my fam won't have to see me hang from the ceiling

Came for the pain that I'm feeling

I came for the same reason you say God's name when you're kneeling

'Cause happiness is the destiny

And feeling this good equals success to me, man

I can't even express this fucking sentiment

It's better than any drug I've ever experimented with

Better than X and it's better than sex and it's better than checks

The highest paid man ever collects

It's better than an orgasm and lasts way longer

Every song we're on makes me stronger

Day by day, I just try to solidify my little life

(Let them motherfuckers know)

Day by day, I just try to solidify my little life

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

The moral of this song is nothing at all

There ain't no lesson even fucking involved

I'm just trying to explain where I'm coming from, y'all

Like Pink Floyd said, I'm just a brick in the wall

I call my life little but the shit isn't small

The music makes it more significant all

Of the words that I write when I'm spitting at y'all

Make me feel so damn tall and I'm still growing

Day by day, I just try to solidify my little life

(Every day I grow)

Day by day, I just try to solidify my little life

(Let's do that shit one more time, come on)

Day by day, I just try to solidify my little life

(Yeah, one more, let's go)

Day by day, I just try to solidify my little life
