Mastermind Lyrics

I never grew up with fancy lights or sights
Of concrete giants shining at night
Over looking a city undermining my rights
Governments abuse citizens on a quest for might

Alas how can I forgive or forget the past
And it seems the good ones always finish last
Is there no place left for retribution
Must we manifest everything in confusion

14 Years of age, out of the cage
Far too many mishaps for a child to bare, scared
Cause any option was pain
And if she would stuck around she would surely go insane

She packed her bags and was ready to leave
The ones she loved this nightmare was here biggest fear
Thinking that the moment was meant to be
For out there must be a place for she

Chorus:
Cause we keep climbing we keep climbing and we reaching the top
While others wining we keep trying cause we never give up
What is a mastermind

I put my mind to work soon as I wake up
Straight rolling to the studio and learn
Tick tock as the clock works telling me to stop
But I can't so I smurk and spot the top

When you visualize the streets money's a bloody dream
Murders and dope fiends paint the big screen
Pictures of aliens disguised as Spartans
Marching like thieves in parades full of sirens

Got me thinking why is my heart so dry
But my thirst is sublime certified mastermind
My hustle skills meets my troubled mind
On a field where strikes mark the beginning of time

Chorus:
Cause we keep climbing, we keep climbing and we reaching the top
While others wining we keep trying cause we never give up
What is a mastermind
A person with control at any given time

Now as I look past the picture frame
I see a young black mastermind ready to train his brain
It will take a few calendars to reach this level
Where my challengers run from me as if I was the devil

Won't settle for nothing less than the best of the best
Only gold medals earn the right to bless my chest
No rose petals can pave your way to success
Exceed and progress then proceed to pass your test

What is a mastermind
A person with control at any given time
Mastermind
What is a mastermind
It is the brain that is making it happen
Controlling the game cause my mind is my weapon
A person with control at any given time

Cause we keep climbing, we keep climbing and we reaching the top
While others wining we keep trying cause we never give up
What is a mastermind

The future never looks like the rose you pick
Mistakes make us learn they don't make us quit
When you discover some thing that will save your life
Well there is nothing that should stop a mastermind

Yeah we keep rhyming and keep on trying till we die
