Thatās why we ā¦ play to win
You know Itās ā¦ game time again
Where do we go when its our time
the road splits like a compound rhyme
is it the loom and the sacred timeline
is it a branch or for all time
always some of us need to be pruned
without temporal scan we would be doomed
thanks to the one and only - he who remains
many donāt realize - timely is his name
Do it for our friends and our loved ones
the future can be bright brighter than the sun
Gotta hold the fabrics of time together
heavy is the crown but that throne is forever
who has control of time variance authority
are you a hunter or a variant implore and see
Before you time slip find out who you are then
we used to be underdogs now we are anchormen
Straight from the archive
Iām straight up time slippin
This Must be a dad joke
As if I was kiddin
Sitting on Sidelines
The underdog anthem
Yeah Iām Bringing it back
Go throw ya hands up
I feel like I was fine
living out my life line
Someone took me by the hand
I was chosen to walk this path
First two steps were like a dance
But I know this couldnāt be by chance
What happened next changed my life
All my accomplishments were sacrificed
I had to let go of all I did
No longer couldnāt be a kid
To be a goat or be a sheep
Should I float or stay asleep
Should this breath I take be deep
Should my loss be left with grief
The price to pay is steep
But we sew what we reap
I learned how to plan
to be some kind of leader man
Never did I expect
for me to be a husband
Time fir our family to grow
More than weāll ever know
Whatās free will? I know Iām chosen
Predestined my heart to be broken
Remolded just like clay
reshaped in every way
Thatās why We play to win
Itās game time once again

Money On That

Some people call it paperwork
(But) they donāt know how paper work
Some just might face the dirt
(As if) they were made from dirt
What can you make it worth
(If) you forsake its worth
Do you not deserve
To earn what you deserve
Speaking of earn itās; best to be earnest
What could be worth-less, if the debt has been purchased?
Humble & obedient. Loyalty is not immediate
Respect can be gained. If the game is played
Use this to earn more until he gets back
When he returns how much can you give back
Sufficient or will you lack? Could you take a bath
Take your blessing and bless. Multiply the stacks
When you have stash. You can be trusted
With a little amount. Not dusted and disgusted
But when you take it & hide it; it will not grow
Thatās worthless! You had a seed to sew
You couldāve had interest. If only youād invest
I guess to be trusted, wasnāt your interest.
Could have gained feet. But you didnāt gain inches
Instead of towering towers youāll be tearing out trenches
Digging out ditches. Paving the road
Be righteous with your riches.
Give until your home.
Do you know the great commission?
Are we not on a mission
Donāt we have vision, beyond our own vision?
No need. For a mattress
No need. for a mansion
Itās time to take action
What we need is passion
Be an encouragement.
Be a blessing.
Sell all your things.
No more possessions.
Because theyāre possessing.
And they got you stressing.
This is just a lesson. From the groom. Be his best man!
You can put your money. Put your money on that
Take it to the bank. You can make it back
Donāt gamble it away. Pay off the debt
You can put your money. Put your money that.

Player of the year huh?
I'm a changed man now
a family man wow
Turned that frown
upside down
What? You didn't hear it man
Im blessed by the spirit man
Spitting spiritual lyrics fam
Me and my a-team rolling up in a panthera mpv
oh, Cant you see,
We winning Stan be a fan please
Pump up the volume turn it to 11
Gotta feel the beat even if you hear nothing
Gotta get up get your body started
Till we're dead and gone -dearly departed
Yes we're here to move your body
But we are not using bicardi
No Smirnoff those wear off
What kinda gentlemen do we come off
As
We'll be the life of your party
Light that joint up lets get it starting
I mean get it lit fire up the cold hearted
Take you out at the knees like Tanya Harding
My bad is that too offensive
Are you on the ropes being all defensive
I'm an old school man with a new university
Student turned teacher no more adversity
still wearing black in the mourning no sympathy
You gotta red cup Heres some empathy,
No love - no longer in da club
Itās time break-fastā¦ go get your grub
I'm a changed man now
a family man wow
Turned that frown
upside down
What? You didn't hear it man
Im blessed by the spirit man
Spitting spiritual lyrics fam
Me and my a-team rolling up in a panthera mpv
oh, Cant you see,
We winning Stan be a fan please
I used to get down and dirty with cats of the ally's
So down low no peaks all valleys
I'm not high & I ain't got five here's a high five
All the way up - only way down is to sky dive
Say I'm in cloud nine tempo I found mine
Full time job I have no down time
Always on my grind you can call me coffee beans
Anchormen hold it down conquering sloppy teams
No competition no Mercy for the weak
Grace is worthy for the meek every day and Week
180 on the street flippin beats say what
Keep a lid on it like the mercy seat
Pump up the volume turn it to 11
Gotta feel the beat even if you hear nothing
Gotta get up get your body started
Till we're dead and gone -dearly departed
I'm a changed man now
a family man wow
Turned that frown
upside down
What? You didn't hear it man
Im blessed by the spirit man
Spitting spiritual lyrics fam
Me and my a-team rolling up in a panthera mpv
oh, Cant you see,
We winning Stan be a fan please
I'm on to something people think I'm stunting
First thing they consume like a banana muffin
Gotta get up get your body started
Till we're dead and gone -dearly departed
When I was a child, used to speak like a child,
think like a child, reason like a child;
when I became a man,
I put away
childish things.
So tell me whoās wild!?

There comes a time in a mans life
When he has to get it right
Married with a wife. Kids in his sight
He already took flight
Coming home after work just another night
Wifey paying bills here comes another fight
But no He refuses. To be a statistic
Gotta turn quick before it gets thick
This is it. He's sick but he can't call it quits
He has to keep in mind his love and replay
All he never did. To prevent any pain
As the man he's the umbrella from all her rain
She always makes him sing before he can think
*Cause if his mind gets caught he downs another drink
But she pours it in the sink see it on her face
With forgiveness. A hug is their embrace
And this is just a taste. Of true love and grace
God these two may fight
No always get it right
But you have them in your sight
They're the apple of your eye
And every time they fail you don't even cry
"Cause you know deep inside. They will be fine
They give it another try. Along with a sigh
You know they can't deny. The love you supply God that gets them high. Every time they try like a kite
It's like your love is their wings.
& Your grace is the air beneath all their dreams
But They can't always sleep, no action no success Because of you they know action know success
And God are they blessed though put to the test
And they'll share your testimony.
Just like the rest if their mind is on you
you'll see it on their face
With forgiveness.
A hug is their embrace
And this is just a taste.
Of your true love and grace

Take a step back hands up and defend
Gotta block the pass seal the win
Give it all we got whether foe or friend
Put your Game face on give another 110
Letās put the d in defense
Put the d in defense. Defense defense
Give another 110
Another 110
One one ten
One ten
Iām on the defensive Because youāre so offensive This is for the kings kids (Can i get witness)
This is ministry This is more than business
More than music Weāll tell you what this is
(Represent throw it up) Unashamed not on fences
Never were we kidding We stay on the defensive
Staying on the deanās list Got to be the cleanest
(Not the meanest you seen this )
Since before we were a fetus
Before we even knew
You cleaned us & keep us Never will you leave us
(Youāre the truest who knew this)
Not heathens best believe this
Still you feed us and you keep us
(So blessed to defend you
Put no one above you)
Sorry we fail you when we drop the ball
But we know itās our time when we got that call
Even after the fall you werenāt ashamed of us all
We can never deceive you never leave you at all
You never mislead us you always keep it real
That is how we feel still even though we conceal
Our selfish ambition but you know how to deal
Still you love us the same
cause you know how we feel

Yeah, I got more kids I aināt going nowhere
Anchored to my fam, I am tethered there
You can ask my Wi_Fi if I have the password
Call me what you want donāt call me a bad word
Iāve been down and out I repeat my rhymes
Iāve been counting down time after time
Down this long narrow road waiting for a sign
motivation just feels like running outta time
Too many rhymes are blocked in my mind
And too many kinds are lost in my grind
Iāve worked so hard since age 16
make money live it up the American dream
sleep only brings a dream the future is unseen
Looking for that passion are we lacking something
no matter how hard I work - i am still down
Either I take it too serious, or I just clown around
I stay consistent I gotta stay with it
Loyalty and commitment I know that itās worth it
I hate the temporary I need everlasting
If I stay in my own lane I guess Iām never passing
Ambition and passion commission and action
Gotta prove to myself that Iām worth more than wealth
Gotta be the man my wife expects me to be
Gotta be the dad my children need me to be
Only time will tell if I see what yāall see
See what yāall see
I stay silent and observe you think Iām curious
Feeling disrespected yāall donāt take me serious
I have to lose my cool just for you to feel me
You could wear me like a ear piece still you woundnt hear me
Eventually you will kill me cuz Iām dying to be heard
I learn geeky knowledge to you Iām just a nerd
Even if I learned all your favorite things
You would ask me for more and more many more things
Thatās the type of hunger you canāt satiate me
To suffer your desire proves weāre human beings
sometimes I wanna fly get away from the ground
Because I cannot fathom how much gravity I found
You can ask why itās so heavy in its glory
Weight is more worth than the never ending story
If I tried to read it you would tell me itās boring
To be honest your attention spans just bore me
I would like to beg your pardon
Life is hard and your heart has hardened
We were abandoned
exiled from the garden
History repeats life goes on wounded and fallen
I hate the temporary I need everlasting
If I stay in my own lane I guess Iām never passing
Ambition and passion commission and action
Gotta prove to myself that Iām worth more than wealth
Gotta be the man my wife expects me to be
Gotta be the dad my children need me to be
Only time will tell if I see what yāall see
If I canāt be anyone else then I gotta be me
I stay consistent I gotta stay with it
Loyalty and commitment I know that itās worth it
Gotta be the man my wife expects me to be
Gotta be the dad my children need me to be
Only time will see if I see what yāall see
Ball is in my court
I gotta be me
Down by six in the forth
I gotta be me
1st and Goal
I gotta be me

Final Dance
02:40

had to say
hip hop my little baby
mental munchies
food fight
this restless leg
all night
yeah
now im remembering
just how much
I love this music thing
Its been many months since I wrote my last feelings
no drill for these cavities no more fast killings
no more blood spilling, Iāve been working 40 hours
no longer like dexter I had to retire
Now I got a family, no more blasphemy
the enemy is after me, thatās why youāre asking me
is this a come back or just a matter of fact
it was soul that i lacked but my shipās anchor got my back
had to say good night
rock a bye baby
mental munchies food fight
doctor sleep come and save me
this restless leg jogging my memory
now im remembering
how much i love this thing
though i cant rap or sing
until our final dance, wearing out this ring
My last song I had to pout about all the stuff I lived without
Now Im not holding out, my wife holds me down
Like, in a good way, Iām a record sheās my deejay
so for now we say, this is our journey every day
We got a handful of kiddos that need, two parents
cuz we never had, until we heard true feelings
and then they split and got a new partner
but a broken family will never come to our sons or daughter
had to say good night
rock a bye baby
mental munchies food fight
doctor sleep come and save me
this restless leg jogging my memory
now Iām remembering
how much i love this thing
though i cant, rap or sing
until our final dance, wearing out this ring
this is the good fight so we pray and we try
to get by even if we have to compromise
Be a king each sunrise just look into her eyes
sheās the queen of our kingdom until our demise
had to say good night
rock a bye baby
mental munchies food fight
doctor sleep come and save me
this restless leg jogging my memory
now Iām remembering
how much i love this thing
though i cant rap or sing
until our final dance, wearing out this ring
this is the good fight so we pray and we try
to get by even if we have to compromise
Be a king each sunrise just look into her eyes
sheās the queen of our kingdom until our demise

Been a scrub once or twice in this life
Take my advice Iām going to sacrifice
going to do it right every day and night
even if i donāt get drafted Iām going to excite
This is how I do, this is how it is
Giving a shout out to all the other kids
Dealing with the biz, from a sizzle to a fizz
we will stand strong, we will place our bid
Use the gifts given, thanks for the support
to Every one who put their faith in any sort
We Will not let you down, just be around
If not in the city, got to rep the town
PUT ME IN COACH, IāM READY FOR MY CHANCE
IāVE PREPARED ALL SEASON, ITāS TIME TO ADVANCE
PUT ME IN COACH, YOU WONāT REGRET IT
GAMBLE WITH ME, YOUāLL BE GLAD YOU BET IT
YOU CAN PUT ME IN, YOU CAN PUT ME IN COACH
YOU CAN PUT ME IN, PUT ME IN ONCE AGAIN
PUT ME IN COACH, YOUāLL BE GLAD THAT YOU DID
PUT ME IN COACH, IāM NO LONGER A KID
PUT ME IN COACH
PUT ME IN COACH
PUT ME IN

Iām a coach now
Iāve been practicing all my life to make it
Finally got my chance see how far Iād take it
Trust me I know greatness never could I fake this
Thankful for my experiences I knew i would make it
Iām humble not braging, Iām chosen Iām handling
Standing on sidelines, this energy Iām channeling
No longer playing the field still im around
I canāt throw down but weāll score a touchdown
Yeah I gotcha, I put the ācā in coach
The opponents will get toast sorry if I boast
This game is for real, but its more than a fight
Now Iām the coach - cause I had to take flight
If we get knocked down, even if we fumble
We will swallow pride, and remain humble
Gotta get back up and give another 1-10
āCause to give up, is just another dumb sin ā¦soā¦
Iām a coach now. Iām the coach
Iām a coach now. Iām the coach
Iām a coach now. Iām the coach
Standing on sidelines Sir yes sir
I said forget the haters, they can play themselves
Lets focus on our dream, that Is for our health
We will just excel, watching suckas fail
not just a tale, back us to the wall ā welllllll
Im Off the wall Iām off the rocker
More than a shot dropper
im a hip-hopper
im not an imposter
Time to make the roster
even if youāre a backup
Just get back up fasta

I was an underdog
now im an anchorman
used to be underdogs
now we are anchormen
Itās been a dozen maybe two dozen years
Iāve learned a lot from friends as well as my peers
soon as I adopted I had to grow up fast
Mistakes have been made, thatās all in the past
I decided to fast so I could hear my father better
but the clouds overcasted didnāt make it any wetter
the sunshine warmed up greater than expected
ive been counted down and out always neglected
As I reflect on the player I used to be
I was childish! (True) as childish as could be
Never wanted kids til I asked my wife to marry me
Iām thankful that Jesus always carried me
