Stay The Course

From the first inhale, a child let out a cry

Some say cause we in hell ‘till we die

What if at death there's no sign of Muhammad, no sign of Isa

Just a pearly gate agent asking for your visa

We’re back on the third rock

People trying got keep ‘em head up, you heard pop?

And bad time trespasses on your premises

Good times avoid you like a nemesis

With or without, we all gonna face that

Find a way to put food upon the place mat

Stay sound, feet well hanging

'Cause trouble always imposin' with its bulldozin'

The majority will not see the few chosen

But we'll see our way through before curtain closing

Maneuverin' around, frowns keep the [?]

Out and in them four walls for all four seasons

Be the one, be the now, live forever in the style

Never stop, never rest, always know, never guess

Navigate through the North, East, South, to West

And just stay the course, you gotta stay the course

Keep the eye on your prize and your thoughts out the box

And your head in the sky, let the knife cut the pie

Take a piece, no matter East, North, South, to West

Just stay the course

We be talkin' that matter of fact, right and exact

Maintain, just stay on track

We be talkin' that matter of fact, right and exact

Maintain, just stay on track

We talkin' that matter of fact, right and exact

Maintain, just stay the course

We be talkin' that matter of fact, right and exact

'Cause if you don't, that's when you're lost

Stay the course, take a horse

Since I'm makin' my way across the high planes

Life a drifter, the stripper's takin' it off

The world's shittin' on me, instead of shakin' it off

I let it dry, brush it off, I'm never takin' a loss

From the start to the finish, my heart'll never diminish

Hit the stage, but I started in the park on the benches

I was singing for fences, when I sing it's such a blessing

They tweetin' for their redemption poem, bringing with the mentions

Bringin' different dimensions, you see that shit?

You say you’re making a movie but I’ve seen that flick

Kids stay in the picture, really complete the photo

Electric fire and electric lightin', like Vita Coco

Livin' la vida loca, my life is sort of like the tornado that took Toto

I watch you dance slow mo, then I shape it like Plato

I don’t mean the clay though, what I mean is my philosophy keepin' me real stable

[Chorus]

Be the one, be the now, live forever in the style

Never stop, never rest, always know, never guess

Navigate through the North, East, South, to West

And just stay the course, you gotta stay the course

Keep the eye on your prise and your thoughts out the box

And your head in the sky, let the knife cut the pie

Take a piece, no matter east, north, south, or west

Just stay the course

We be talkin' that matter of fact, right and exact

Maintain, just stay on track

We be talkin' that matter of fact, right and exact

Maintain, just stay on track

We talkin' that matter of fact, right and exact

Maintain, just stay the course

We be talkin' that matter of fact, right and exact

'Cause if you don't, that's when you're lost

Be the one, be the now, live forever in the style

Never stop, never rest, always know, never guess

Navigate through the North, East, South, to West

Just stay the course, you gotta stay the course

Keep an eye on the prize and your thoughts out the box

And your head in the sky, let your knife cut the pie

Take a piece, no matter East, North, South, or West

And just stay the course, stay the course

Be the first, not the last, get a hold, get a grasp

Of your soul, we're now never slow, profound

Keep it right, never wrong, write a poem, write a song

And just stay the course, stay the course
