"One Step"


VERSE 1

Poetic:

I feel these needles poking and probing
main veins, brain's on the verge of exploding
maintain focus thru the commotion
don't drown in an ocean of emotions
of hopeless feelings - you need to know this
my heart's been broken - but i've grown since
hopeless moments of utter lonliness
but i won't whine and moan like those emo kids
"you need to get up, get out, and do something
instead of running from the problems you should be confronting"
or getting drunk to numb and sedate the pain
or smoking mary jane so u could float away
from this world we're stuck living in
imprisoned in a system where you fell you'll never win
or gain anything without committing sin
don't lose your temper man, relax sit & think

CHORUS:

TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- philosophize, find your state of mind
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- and keep your life on beat with these changing rhymes
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- don't fall behind in this game of life
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- on sight of ya' path man, aim precise

VERSE 2

Liotta:

Learn ya lesson when the ether smoke clears,
I show people no fear, no tears man, no facial
expression,
Just confession in the words I wrote here,
Who’s better?
No peer,
That’s your answer in the form of a question,
There’s no hope and no prayer
When your profession
Sittin in a kitchen with some baking soda watchin coke
flare,
This aint the pope, it’s Liotta’s movie rappin’ in
broke mirrors,
Next year promote the sequel with cold stares,
Now toke the roach clips and inhale the dopeness I
just spoke there,
But don’t choke in the mix when you quote this,
I combine with the mic magically but there’s no
tricks,
Just romancing this beat witta slow kiss,
Sometimes I feel like I lose focus with the UTEP 2
step,
So i travel back to the spot my roots kept,
Where it's written exclusive and spoke in a true
breath,
You'll spin out in the fast life and meet a fool's
death...

CHORUS:

TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- philosophize, find your state of mind
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- and keep your life on beat with these changing rhymes
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- don't fall behind in this game of life
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- on sight of ya' path man, aim precise

VERSE 3

Liotta:

I'm a bastard captured at youth brainwashed to move
backwards,
Fight against my destiny mapped out into chapters,
Makin' moves like a body, trapped, casted in plaster,
Drugged up on muscle relaxer,
Now it's about time I make plans to slip in character,
Cuz we all actors, in life's portrait of a
masterpiece,
Smile now hear the laughter of a savage beast,
Won't lay out my hand until my plan is reached...

Poetic:

I've been thru misery to achieve my victories
life's full of epiphanies listen to me
your determination is vital - you'll gain the upper hand
when enemies act spiteful
only out of jealousy is when they fight you
they're predictable if you know what they might do
easily you'll gain triumph and conquer the odds
deserving your spot, to conjure along with the gods
CHORUS:

TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- philosophize, find your state of mind
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- and keep your life on beat with these changing rhymes
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- don't fall behind in this game of life
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
- on sight of ya' path man, aim precise

I wasn't feelin the beat much.
The lyrics were cool but you need a better mic.
