lyrics

(Hook – Jonathan Emile)
Mama I made it
Papa I made it
Through the perils and the storms
I learned to carry on
And everything that you have done
Has helped me overcome
Mama I made it
Papa I made it

(Verse 1 – Jonathan Emile)
Minced meat brother I am on my grind
I got these weak dudes dipping like a limbo line
Five fourteen, now's about my time
Word to Dr. Frankenstein, he’s screaming I'm alive
And so well like bucket and rope in it
Obama swagger put the change and the hope in it
Hold a flow down like a news anchor do it
Heavily medicated so now I give them dope music
I'm not a rapper; I'm a general up in the movement
And what I value most I could never loose it
See, radiation -- hardest 5 weeks of my life
And the is no other harder other brother on the mic
So I give them what they need laced with what they like
And when you hear it, it's like riding a bike
You hesitate at first then remember how it's done
Cause it's classic, but it's fresh, and it's smart and it’s fun

(Verse 2 – Jonathan Emile)
And I radiate like a star
I'm so driven I am whipping more that your car
Words epic floating back like star wars
Hospital ward I.V. was a mic chord
I break a weak dude, like a paradigm
They say I'm too complex when I write a rhyme
I'm just well read-- stop sign
E got clips so you could never block shine
(Plow) And frankly dude
If you don't feel, you don't feel
And you ain't real so don't come around
No syndrome homes I am not down
Come through flashing like photo light
I’m the future like a prototype
Hype, and I wasn’t born to write
I was born to love, I was born to fight

(Outro – Jonathan Emile)
Even if I try,
I could never say I’m a savior
I could only be everything I need to be
Even If I die,
Keep my name out of your scripture
Cause you know and I know
We only got one life to live
We only got one life to live
Even if I die,
We only got one life to live
We only got one life to live
We only got one life to live
We only got one life to live
