(Ft. Morgan Freeman)

|
[Intro:]
|
As the war between light and darkness continues
|
Heroes and villains become harder to identify
|
Kindred spirits separated at birth
|
Fighting for their place in time to be solidified
|
The clock ticks faster and faster
|
While time runs a marathon in this babylon
|
But see, the end is only the beginning
|
The beginning of the calm before the storm
|
|
[Verse 1: B.o.B]
|
I used to dream of success, now success is inadequate
|
It seems the bigger I get, itĄŻs the more they get mad at me
|
Cause it ainĄŻt no rules inside this fight that we battlinĄŻ
|
And it ainĄŻt no leftover scraps, you only eat if you capture it
|
And I swear itĄŻs like a fucked up reality
|
But creation needs a devil, the devil needs an advocate, I guess
|
And I ainĄŻt too big on duality, but
|
You think you know me? You ainĄŻt seen the half of me
|
So fly, no gravity
|
So high, Mount Everest
|
And the show must go on, yes
|
But I donĄŻt have to act in it
|
And they donĄŻt make a television that handles the frequencies of my channel
|
And there ainĄŻt no computer that can hack it
|
It just donĄŻt have the capacity
|
Hell naw that ainĄŻt happeninĄŻ
|
You hustle? Well we are Grand Hustle, nigga we mastered it
|
YĄŻall workinĄŻ on your bachelors, we ball like the athletes
|
Drink wine out of chalices on Sunday like we Catholics
|
And if this is an embassy, consider me ambassador
|
Official, no artificial preservatives or additives
|
I love it all, but I ainĄŻt attached to it
|
They call this a game because it is exactly
|
|
[Hook x2: B.o.B]
|
Whenever I wake up, I get this feeling
|
That I canĄŻt wait up, cause time is ticking
|
Bombs away (Bombs away)
|
|
[Verse 2: B.o.B]
|
And it seems like, in the grand scheme of it all
|
The worldĄŻs run by a few people and we never seen them at all
|
How do they exist if we donĄŻt know who they are?
|
They can be you, they could be me, they could be queens and gods
|
Some say that weĄŻre slaves, an alien race created us all
|
From a distant star, some say through evolution we evolve
|
But if anything, what you finna see is a change, donĄŻt be alarmed
|
And whoever they are, well I think that itĄŻs time we start takinĄŻ charge
|
Fuck rules, fuck boss
|
You can be whatever you want
|
You could be a star with a car with a house made out of gold
|
And ? you could never see it all
|
If you donĄŻt know what I mean, have you seen Niagara Falls?
|
Man I swear this world is ours, but IĄŻve just been pushed too far
|
Now I be beast mode up on these bars
|
Freak out a beat and then beat it out raw
|
Good God, if I go this hard, by the time IĄŻm ninety
|
I wonĄŻt need viagra naw, even if I had a dog
|
I be the canine ?
|
Better watch out when you cross my yard
|
I am a flame, I am the spark
|
I am in drive, yĄŻall in park
|
Look at my shot, look at the arc
|
Look at the crowd as soon as I start
|
Look in they eyes and look in they hearts
|
Two middle fingers straight at the law
|
Sincerely yours, for petty your lord
|
Cause this is a war, ainĄŻt talkinĄŻ ĄŻbout bullets and swords
|
UFOs donĄŻt make any noise
|
When they travel in hyper speed, so welcome aboard
|
|
[Hook x2: B.o.B]
|
Whenever I wake up, I get this feeling
|
That I canĄŻt wait up, cause time is ticking
|
Bombs away (Bombs away)
|
|
[Outro: Morgan Freeman]
|
As the mask of deception falls off the face of humanity
|
Unveiling the grim reality of duality
|
In which everyone is a casualty, no one will be exempt
|
Truth has many shades
|
ItĄŻs not a matter of black and white, but gray
|
Although many, we are one, so in the final analysis
|
Could it be that we are fighting a war that canĄŻt be won?
