[Verse 1: Yarbrough (AKA Melatone)]
Open sesame. Here in your ear is where the blessing be
Jewel of the Nile, wearers of the treasury
Feet on the planet, on the path towards destiny
I’ll rock grooves, make crowds move like Ra’s legacy
I said my first rhyme in ’87 under
The tutelage of No Bones resting in Heaven
In the comforts of The Creator, my circumference becomes
Greater. Every day, I see the Sun raise up
On a mission to understand self better
And put my plan to work as a way to get ahead in the
Game. Today’s mind frame’s a vicious cycle
Propelled by the same system that took Michael away
I felt pain that day that resonates with my
Spirit, man. Articulate when you can hear it, and
It seems I found the right medium, been cooking for
Years—now it’s time to start feeding ‘em

[Hook: Yarbrough (AKA Melatone)]
What is
Life? Going for yours, knowing the breaks, going
Hard for your dreams—whatever it takes. What is
Life? Playing your hand given. And if you fall
It’s never a lost cause as long as you keep living your life
What is
Life? (Yeah). Yeah, that’s
Life

[Verse 2: Yarbrough (AKA Melatone)]
Monopoly
Life—every day is like a roll of the dice. Made
Moves, bought property, sometimes spend nights at
Hotels when I travel abroad, get love world-
-wide, so I slide so low, no [?], rock
Stages, write pages in the journal of the mind
Get back to the lab to record in real time
Track an audition, seasoning the mixing
[?] a master in the soul kitchen
That’s my process. Then off to the
Digital curator to stir up success, give
Back to the community—that’s how I stay blessed
Sponsorships from clothing lines how I stay fresh
Karma says it best. [?] the universal?
Officially give back as it comes full-circle
I made a promise to live out my [?]
And stay grimy, and there’s still a whole lot of work to do
