This is kind of a weird topic. It’s not like I’m rock climbing everyday w/o a harness or anything. I’m the crazy adventurer. I’m alive because two of the most important people in my life fell in love, got married, started a family, and eventually had me. They’ve kept me safe and taught me all they could. It’s really as simple as that.
Today’s song is pretty awesome. I’ve liked it for a while but I never looked to see what all of the words were. It’s even more awesome than I thought. I love that T.I. tried to do good just before his incarceration and after as well. He’s realized his mistakes and tries to educate others that are going down the path he already went down. Good for him, trying to make a difference! I love the whole song, but I especially love when he says, “Don’t forget that impossible is nothin’, your environment's irrelevant, just don’t let your emotions over power your intelligence. Refuse to give up, your mistakes don't define you, don't dictate where you headin’, they remind you.” Be strong, be happy, and find the joy in your life!
Slide Show- T.I.
Eh , when I think about all my time and all my struggle
Through all my grindin’ and all my troubles
When I came out from nothin’ , all I had was a hustle
With a blindfold tryin’ to find pieces to the puzzle, no muzzle
I tell it like it is, that’s that, right or wrong, I’mma call it how I see it
Don’t forget that impossible is nothin’, your environment's irrelevant
Just don’t let your emotions over power your intelligence
Refuse to give up, your mistakes don't define you
Don't dictate where you headin’, they remind you
That time keeps tickin’, let your mind keep clickin’
Never stop thinkin’, be aware of your decision
Everywhere the collisions
And the potholes hidden on the road that you travel on your lifelong mission
Just listen everyday like a snap shot is taken, if you live you could learn
Have faith, be patient
‘Cause life is like a slide show
And all the places I go
And all the things that I know
Through all the highs and lows
‘Cause life is like a slide show
And all the things that I’ve seen
And all the things that I dream
You can’t take away from me
‘Cause life is like a slide show
‘Cause when I look back at a fly young cat
Who could rap with a dream, look where I took that
Beginning on bankhead, then I spread out
Vision in my head, all I had to do is to get it out
When I walked out of my house, and look at my street
All I see is the opportunity that lead me to truancy
I ain’t really have a role model to enforce me
Uncle Quinn in prison
they said next its gunna be you in it
As a juvenile caught cases so fluently look at my life and learn from it, don’t do it
If I only knew back then what I know now, how much better life it would have been if I slowed down
Maybe I’d have been Kanye, instead of seeing gunplay
But god got a plan, I’ll understand one day,
one day of life like a snap shot is taken,
if you believe you could make it
have faith, be patient
‘Cause life is like a slide show
And all the places I go
And all the things that I know
Through all the highs and lows
‘Cause life is like a slide show
And all the things that I’ve seen
And all the things that I dreamed
You can’t take away from me
‘Cause life is like a slide show
Looking back on my life time
See the slides go by, at times i wonder why
Looking back at where I’ve been
I remember when, you remember
‘Cause life is like a slide show
And all the places I go
And all the things that I know
Through all the highs and lows
‘Cause life is like a slide show
And all the things that I’ve seen
And all the things that I dream
You can’t take away from me
‘Cause life is like a slide show
‘Cause I see, cause I dream, life is like a slide show
