“Every Step”

Verse 1: (Pharaoh Mac)
Don’t talk me down,
Just hold me down…

Every step of that way
Real talk, through the
Thick and thin
Now lets begin
Walk my walk
Pick a sin
Except yo flaws
Help friend
If you wanting to shine
Then kop’ some rims
Live it up like
Can’t tell me nothing
Turn it up like
The system ain’t bunking
Understand what I kick
For that soul thou
In fact for yo mind
No To’-To’,
For that yellow brick road,
When you ski the slopes
With yo nostrils
Screaming out Yolo
Bye bye to the mind games
Stay in yo own lane
Use to feel like it was a padded room
Now I’m in my own lane
Making ends meet
Doing what I gotta do. . .

chorus:
Don’t talk me down,
Just hold me down…
“Every step of that way”
Don’t talk about it
Just be about it…
“Every step of that way”
Can’t talk the knowledge
If you don’t know problems of…
“Every step of that way”
Can’t talk the problems of
not willing to follow it…
“Every step of that way”
Said now step of that way

Hook: [x4]
Step by Step
Keep my head up
“Fist up”

Verse 2: (I Am Mystique)
You can take your opinions and cram'em
Working on my paintbrush, everyday a new canvas
stretching for the challenge, what I manage to do
let go of technical difficulties, play it through
Ball in my court and the coach say shoot
so nothing but net, swish
mind on money my grind shown
Dreamcast like PowerStone
at any moment I could be gone so at a given
I'm giving my all, credibility tremendous
Bars morphine for the illing
Bigger thangs made changes from block hugging
my own compadres, squiling for freedom
switch formats, can't knock the hustle
Game cold but it's fair so I became the muscle
through the struggle my wits inherited the gift
proper preparation stand clear of the interference
so what you saying soft spoken
don't get lost in the moment
just putting you up on notice
this horseplay ain't where it's stowing
