[Verse 1 - Illy:]
2
He draws out, the cigarette smoke trail spins
3
Thoughts crowd the room till' it's only him
4
He feels it, lives for it, spent half a life pushing it forward, what he wouldn't give for it
5
Saw naysayers put in their places, feels like he's scaling foothills to greatness
6
Holding all four aces, braced for the next few years being some for the ages
7
No time to heed, pride comes before the fall
8
For now he shines. all rose, no thorn
9
Full bloom like his plans fool proof
10
High noon, sun beaming, spoke too soon
11
The dark clouds scream towards his door and a house of cards can't stand in a storm
12
Wind picked up, sunshine stopped
13
The world came down with the very first drop
14
[Hook - Hue Blanes:]
15
So light me up like a cigarette and just let me burn
16
Catch fire and burn, catch fire and burn
17
Light a spark and ignite it
18
In the dark, so when I'm no more
19
They'll know I was here, so let me just burn
20
[Verse 2 - Illy:]
21
He still gunning, beaten but refused to be broken
22
What some call delusional, what others call focus man
23
He's focused, came back for the re up
24
Now's not the time to kick back with his feet up
25
Stands in the rain with his face to the heavens and his arms outstretched from the pain that he let in
26
World keep kickin' hard, ain't gonna get him
27
He's willin to fight and die for the path that he heads in
28
And that's a bittersweet faith, knowin' highs and lows will come boy but them's the breaks
29
It's pride it's madness, it's seein' what others can only imagine and then reachin' out to grab it
30
And sayin "I can say whatever comes hapens but I follow my heart goddamn it"
31
Exposing reality to magic
32
It's hope, that's all it is
33
He walked through fire, Its all he came back with, saying
34
[Hook]
35
[Verse 3 - Illy:]
36
Come what may some memories fade
37
Some stay as vivid as the moment they were made
38
Dreams of the days where he stood like a mountain, it's been a while since then but who's countin'?
39
He lies awake, lies in wait, for the light of the mornin' to bless him and shine again
40
Summon the rise of the fallen
41
Laces tied, comeback trail still walkin'
42
Lives for it, lifetime on a mish for it man, there ain't thing he didn't give for it
43
Make a bet til' his last sun sets
44
He'll be pushin' for the light mate he ain't done yet
45
Head held high slow danced through his hell
46
Still a point there gotta prove to himself
47
And, the beat drops same songs on next
48
So he sparks up a cigarette takes a deep breath and says
49
[Hook]
