lyrics

[1st Verse]
Lovelier than sin
But darker than the sun
Your passion is the only thing that keeps you afloat
The aftermath of Hip Hop's death was something you hoped for
Because you know you can revive the mind's whose circuits have been blown
But the future is sketchy and you feel so alone
Lost and forlorn, feeling so scorn and cast away
With the trash that Hip Hop has thrown out
Nevertheless, you write cause you've got so much to prove
And you're hoping they'll approve
You're convinced you can change the world for the better, win or lose
But you'd honestly want to win it
Because you are bound to bring it
So keep on flowing and reach the stars
Keep on growing and raise the bar
You're living life for the cures and the disease
After the war, you've got a kingdom to seize cause...

[Chorus]
You are an overachiever, do what it takes till it takes everything you are (x2)

[2nd Verse]
You're so tired and sick
Of how rappers spit, no real shit
Emcees have long since retired
Tired of the disrespect to the game
A lost dialect, dissipated into the fame of the genre
Prior to this era of errors and mistakes
Detraction from the distraction of what you make
And so you do and finally, there's a break
Between real and fake
A revolution arose with the truth in mind
At the top of your game but you're forced in a bind
You see blind and fall into the place you wanted nothing to do with
And since you took over everything, everybody just follows the leader
Unfortunately the giant that once triumphed
Goliath fell prey to his own mad science
Keep on flowing and touch the stars
Never stop growing and raise the bar
Living life for the cures and the disease
After the war, you've got a kingdom to seize
So remember that...

[Chorus]
You are an overachiever, do what it takes till it takes everything you are
You are an overachiever, do what it takes till it takes everything you are (x4)
(Want a break from the world, but the world wanna break you
The weight makes your backbone curl up and ache you) (x2)
