lyrics
(Verse 1 - The Mask Of God)
Since the first time I heard a rapper twist their words
I knew I had to do it and go through with all the work
I had to have that control over the language I'm speaking
Had to create the ultimate puzzle out of these pieces
I HAD to escape from the future of nine-to-fives
The Mask Of God was born as I began my rhyming life
If I was to survive, I had to be amongst the best
Naturally I gained the skills to stand above the rest
And contest with the vets over beats in the beefs
I have a mind to get money, but never business
Me and Jared met on the same path
Paved rhymes with the same hands to execute all the same plans
And it's insane, man! My passion for this shit
I live and breathe music, it's my atmosphere
I gave up all I had, went through all this pain for rap
And there's no changing that, man! I'm NEVER turning back!
(Hook)
(Verse 2 - Sagacious)
I've gotta have the life, the only life that's envisioned
Or whats the point of life, if thats not what I'm livin'
I use the gifts I was givin, to life up the vision
Everything I am and will be is up to this decision
I can't miss out on my chances to reach deeper
Where my lifestyle advances, I'm locked on like a heat seeker
Focused on goals, but not goal driven
I wrote this all, but it's my soul spittin'
These moments; you’ll never get them back, so don’t ever skip a track
And perhaps I'll forever spit these raps
These lyrics are history breakin', if my lips aren't mistaken
The answer to my destiny is in the mystery awaiting
But I'm at full capacity, so I'll never come up short
I gotta have it, so I need your support
Ride with me, vibe with me, 'til the end of time with me
So that my music doesn't die with me
(Hook)
(Verse 3 - D2M [Alternating - Sagacious/Mask])
Big dreams, big hopes, nice things, nice flows
Live free, die slow, give me my own
Time to expand, into my own man
Across the universe, I will find my own land
Haven't lost my fuel or thirst, I've gotta have it
I've gotta rule the earth, but I'm on a tangent
I want to win trophies, with no boasting
So I watch closely as life proceeds
So heres to hoping in the investments we've made
The success that we've paved through our messages on stage
Impressive when we reign, learn lessons from the sage
The truth of The Mask is infesting every page
The mission's to shine light to the hearts of the nations
The Scripture defies time and imparts its creations
Listen to our rhymes and enter a haven
Remember our sayings cuz we're sent as the saviours
(Hook)
