Silas - My Shot lyrics

[Intro & Verse 1: B.g. Bene] You know, it's just what I've been Saying, like There's just some people in this world Trying to take their shot But they keep telling themselves That they're gone miss it, you know? But this time it ain't gone be me, though… Paint a picture youngin' - let em see this for real though I used to aim to shoot, now I'm shooting for aim ‘Cause all that's left in this life I lead - Missing more shots - Yeah, I'm shooting more jumpers I'm on the lookout, evading my own fears And it feels kind of joyless but the opportunities were here To miss or to make em So what you're really going up against this whole time Just an outline of pessimism But I only got so many shots So I just rushed or dumped em all I always was that quiet brother lingering in my dorm Just wait until I get out of that dorm.. I'm on the hunt for regaining some of my f**ing conscience That I took away myself - to learn for the future F-society - am I on my own? Please tell me I'm reaching for something more like, ey [Hook] Who are you to tell me what it's all about? Not alone just the only one to figure out What's real and what's not - one life, one shot Don't tell me that you've heard it all before Even if so, let me tell you once more I'm here to stay and I won't budge This is my life and this is my shot [Verse 2: Silas] And I'ma take it, I'ma I'ma I'ma take it And I'ma make it, ah hell yeah i'll make it I don't care what you tell me cause this is me And I'ma do what i think best ‘cause I am free Free of all the pettiness and the nonsense Free of all your silly games and free of the past tense Because today is a present, it's a gift I know who I am and that's just pure bliss Self-defined, me and him till the end of time Only God can judge - me and my rhymes So I pick up the pen, even though I can't write my sins away I know they're not here to stay, huh But i'm going places if you're taking me I can do all things cause you strengthen me So I could care less what the people say ‘Cause like Mr. West - I got it all day [Hook] Who are you to tell me what it's all about? Not alone just the only one to figure out What's real and what's not - one life, one shot Don't tell me that you've heard it all before Even if so, let me tell you once more I'm here to stay and I won't budge This is my life and this is my shot
