Too Far

[Verse 1: K-Rino]
The race is not to dismiss so I run it
Money or no money, I'ma keep it 100
Life ain't easy but I can't run from it
If getting it wasn't hard, everybody would have done it
Instead of seeing the Sun, I be weathering the rain
The inner pain is something I could never explain
Whatever the game holds and my future contains
It couldn't be tougher than what I already overcame
I don't sniff no lines, commit no crimes
Pushing it to the limits still I get no shine
I'm tryna leave a legacy and hit more minds
Contemplated retirement at least four time
Got myself out from under the spell
Looked in the mirror and said, "I gotta be the one to prevail"
Revamp the game plan, I was scared as Hell
But failing to prepare is preparing to fail
Perceptions of me are so convoluted
Got an automatic weapon and no time to shoot it
Self-analysis is so therapeutic
I done did my work now it's your turn to do it
I've been around the world in multiple time zones
Got treated like a king with 79 thrones
Styles and instrumentals I done put my rhymes on
Then I get treated like I'm nobody when I'm home
Still I keep on pursuing my high mind
There's still no point to keep riding the sideline
You ain't never paid dues, you don't know how to grind
You experience defeat and mind force nine times
But I won't hate another man's position
I gotta try to rectify my own damn condition
I can't win like a gunfighter who's handsome
[?] packing a gun but [?]

[Chorus x2: K-Rino]
I done came too far, I done came too far
We done came too far
It's time to stand up on your own two and claim who you are
You can knock me but can't stop me
You can knock me but can't stop me
You can pop me but can't drop me
You can pop me but can't drop me

[Verse 2: K-Rino]
I see life differently since I'm older
My mind is messed up, my heart is colder
I had a chip, the folks acting bolder
Now I got a whole oak tree on my shoulder
Life is like rain that don't slack up
If you can't handle the pressure then pack up
It ain't about how many times you get knocked down
It's about how many times that you get back up
I'm tired of hearing grown men gasping and bitching
Put an apron on, take your ass into the kitchen
Fix a meal for me then hold my call
Since you acting like a women go wash my drawers
See, winning is a combo of mind and muscle
Overcoming the obstacles, life's a tussle
Haters and cops looking every night to bust you
Trade the game in for a righteous hustle
Life ain't all good so don't confuse it
There's somebody right now about to lose it
A dangerous fool they about to choose
Wanna be in the band but can't face the music
Nothing but negativity you going through
Gun to your own head, thinking should I do it
Had a goal in your mind but you didn't pursue it
Still living but your loaded with embalming fluid
Hold your head up high
Brother, don't you know it's all over when you die
Focus on your talent, make your money multiply
Don't you got a family to feed, this ain't no time to sit around and cry
Your life's your own car why you asking to ride
It's time to drive, get up out the passenger side
You're the first, not a clone, the best ever known
And able to do whatever you focus your mind on

[Chorus x2: K-Rino]
I done came too far, I done came too far
We done came too far
It's time to stand up on your own two and claim who you are
You can knock me but can't stop me
You can knock me but can't stop me
You can pop me but can't drop me
You can pop me but can't drop me

[Verse 3: K-Rino]
I got kicked in the ass and my dreams were shattered
Was at a part when nothing really seemed to matter
My brain was all scattered, I was feeling the struggle
But I put it back together like a jigsaw puzzle
Your blessings seems to come slow as molasses
But the masses put to God, you going the fastest
I ain't tryna die in the street, just as I was trying to eat
I'd rather work 9 to 5 in the heat
You can master your domain, god so let it be
How you do ten years but can't make it into three?
Institutionalized, living in a spiritual grave
You gave and got nothing like a modern day slave
Couldn't even get a job, a felony on your back
Now you at the same dope corner, selling people crack
The game ain't never over, I'm telling you the facts
Your conscience keep on saying, "Why the Hell you doing that"
You gonna live, die, laugh, cry
Spend they whole lifetime wondering why
Hoping on a false dream, look into the sky
Never knowing the happiness money couldn't buy
The world that made you wild, afraid to smile
Television and video games that raise your child
If your TV's broke down, rearrange your panel
When I see drama approaching I don't change the channel
Got the preacher of the poor been shouting and telling lies
While the congregation broke from paying ties
Put your faith into G-O-D and put it first
And the streets pay for the best, be prepared for the worst
Understand you can be whatever you wanna be
As a manner thicker than his heart, so is he
Get bread, take it home, divide the whole stack
When it's seems that it can't go [?]

[Chorus x2: K-Rino]
I done came too far, I done came too far
We done came too far
It's time to stand up on your own two and claim who you are
You can knock me but can't stop me
You can knock me but can't stop me
You can pop me but can't drop me
You can pop me but can't drop me
