Lyrics

I feel so alive..
I feel so alive..
I swear, it feels like I cant die,
Tell the world I feel so alive with life..

There's no mountain I cant climb,
In the belly of the beast I thrive...
I swear it feels like I cant die,
Lord knows I feel so alive with life..

I'm the most patient mother fucker you know,
Patiently waiting for my due since '84..
Yeah, I'm patient - mother fucker you know,
But fuck being patient - I aint waiting no more..
Demo after demo and they wouldn't put me on,
So now I'm like fuck it - I'll do this shit on my own..
Either they don't know or they don't pay attention,
I got a God-like flow - but mortals won't listen..
I find myself drifting - wishing for that break,
Two decades and counting - how much more can I take?
How much more can I wait? How much more will I wake,
And allow this 9:00am to 5:00pm to lay my talents to waste?
Backspace - delete - erase that line,
Success is woven into the fabric of my design..
And thus I grind - to get that cheese,
No more walking dead - it's time to live that dream..

Chorus
I feel so alive..
I feel so alive..
I swear, it feels like I cant die,
Tell the world I feel so alive with life..

There's no mountain I cant climb,
In the belly of the beast I thrive...
I swear it feels like I cant die,
Lord knows I feel so alive with life..

I aint no gangster - I know who I am,
Mother fuck beef - I'm too busy going ham..
Mother fuck beef - I'm trying to make a hundred grand,
And flip that until I'm a 100 million dollar man..
My heart so in it - I go hard when I spit it,
So much so you feel it like you wrote it or you lived it..
Even though you didn't you can see my vision,
You can smell what I'm cooking like you sitting in my kitchen..
I know no limits - my growth is unrestricted,
My flow is uninhibited - I flow for the underprivileged..
I flow for misfits - who want to go right,
But can't seem to pivot to save their life..
I flow for the homeless who weather harsh winters,
Sleeping on park benches too numb feel splinters..
When I hit seven digits I'm gonna come through and visit,
Handing out gifts and shit - and it won't even be Christmas..

Chorus
I feel so alive..
I feel so alive..
I swear, it feels like I cant die,
Tell the world I feel so alive with life..

There's no mountain I cant climb,
In the belly of the beast I thrive...
I swear it feels like I cant die,
Lord knows I feel so alive with life..

I owe a debt of gratitude to the niggas in Krush Groove,
If it wasn't for you - I'd prolly be ice-blue..
A stubborn nigga - with an iron clad crew,
And a fuck the police attitude..
And a hood state of mind - stayed ready for the fued,
Stayed ready for beef - and didn't even eat stew..
A man on fire - no match - no fuel,
Then Hip-Hop came and changed my whole point of view..
Who would've knew - who would've guessed,
Setting fire to ciphers - would relieve his stress..
The Lord gave him Hip-Hop to clean his mess,
Now it dont take a Jesus piece to see he blessed..
Yes I plan to heal through these words,
Let you feel what I feel with these verbs..
Yes Wayz resides in the burbs,
But the hood won't quit him - it's been in'em since birth..

Chorus
I feel so alive..
I feel so alive..
I swear, it feels like I cant die,
Tell the world I feel so alive with life..

There's no mountain I cant climb,
In the belly of the beast I thrive...
I swear it feels like I cant die,
Lord knows I feel so alive with life..
