Chorus – Mdub x 2
At this moment in time I decide to be
All by myself, entirely free
Absorb everything as its given to me
I have to open my mind, just to see
At this moment in time I decide to be
All by myself, entirely free
Absorb everything as its given to me
I have to open my mind, just to be
Verse 1 - Mdub
Every step along the path that I walk is a decision
Will I continue to breath, or would I rather stop living
In the conditions that I’m given I proceed to be
(I proceed to be!) It’s just me!
I believe in the choice, for the freedom of noise
I get a crowd on their feet as I’m speaking with poise
Believe in the boys with whom I make the hip hop
Now were running circles and it’s too hard to stop (STOP!)
Verse 2 – INF-T
Regain composure alone and cold
This war aint over, we fighting for souls
Warrior soldiers if we choose to be
Loyal to love and everything peace brings
See we true Kings, we battle on the front line
Wagging the war of good and evil going on in our minds
No time to waste, only fears to face
To find the place encased within to win before were erased
Chorus – Mdub x 2
At this moment in time I decide to be
All by myself, entirely free
Absorb everything as its given to me
I have to open my mind, just to see
At this moment in time I decide to be
All by myself, entirely free
Absorb everything as its given to me
I have to open my mind, just to be
Verse 3 – Mdub
To understand me you gotta live right now
Cuz with an overcast sky, tomorrow might not go down
But what if it don’t happen will my soul keep rappin
Will dollars even matter if the evil are left laughin
Will my stress disinigrate and fade with the dust
Waters dry up and turn the metal into rust
Will decisions be a must, if none of us is left?
I will survive, while you’re facing death
Verse 4 - INF-T
Born to a family but I’ll die alone
See the world will feel my presence long after I’m gone
Song by song passed on, from ages to ages
The story of these lions breaking out of their cages
Hear me roar, watch me soar through the sky
You can kill my body, but my soul will never die
You can run but can’t hide from your demons inside
Truth soldiers where you at? (Right Here!) Lets Ride!
In this moment of nothingness I find bliss
This is what it is, I see it in the eyes of these kids
The gift to live, gift to laugh, gift to give half
To look back on life and say “This is what I did!”
From children to grown ups, the world makes us go nuts
They try and mold us, there’s so much weight we gotta hold up, but hold up!
I take time, to reflect on my inside, clear my mind and find I
Chorus – Mdub x 2
At this moment in time I decide to be
All by myself, entirely free
Absorb everything as its given to me
I have to open my mind, just to see
At this moment in time I decide to be
All by myself, entirely free
Absorb everything as its given to me
I have to open my mind, just to be
