album and band name
from :03 From Gold [EP] by The ILLZ

[Verse] 

I think I’m lost in the passion 
I think I’m caught up in the game 
And now I'm blowing right past them 
Instead of trying to be the same 
Staring eye to eye with the person I became 
Progress is impossible without a lot of change 
See the big picture and put it in the frame 
Its way deeper than trying to get the fame 
point to the stars, maybe now you know my aim 
a small glimpse of what I will attain 
still I’m [bad word] up 
hurt with every step I gain 
cause to get there you gotta feel pain 
and to make it to the top gotta deal with the d’evils 
dealing with these spiteful, envious people 
Only the day you make it will they ever believe you 
Until you’re in the spotlight nobody sees you 
Like that 

[Verse 2] 

I’m going hard 
people can’t relate to something they never saw 
got a passion for life that never falls 
gotta look up high and stand tall 
they say you wanna make it in the game 
wait for the call 
wanna get a bad chick 
then you better ball 
wanna be the best out 
then you better stall 
do that sound right to you? 
not at all 
so I’m trying to see the vision 
they say its clear all you gotta do is listen 
but reality is feeling so twisted 
start drifting, conflicted 
and when my [bad word] hope I don’t miss it 
so when I wanna give up, I resist it 
cause that [bad word] to you in an instant 
could be infront of you and still feel distant 
and when [bad word]  well you never know it 
I’m just hoping that I’m ready for it 
and all the hate, its telling me to ignore it 
walking through my mind feeling like a tourist 
unfamiliar with whats living there 
I have a hunger to be self aware 
standing infront of the mirror all I do is stare 
that same face says you must prepare 
well yea 
but negativity is everywhere 
wishing I could block it out, then I wouldn’t care 
giving up on what I want, that I couldn’t bare 
i’m just trying to hold on, till its looking clear 
but [bad word] 
im here stressing 
where is the progression 
those same thoughts 
got me feeling so restless 
and through it all, all I have is this question 
am I being brave or am I being reckless?
