Lyrics
Looking out on my life, my sights, in the fast lane, it's a rat race
Give me time, give me time, changing pathways
Might take some practice, take some practice
Might takes some practice

My daddy said it was rainin', momma said it was snowin'
Heaven opened it's door and warned us to Chica-go in
Life not knowin' laughin', learnin', grownin'
The wind keep blowin', street sweepin' and sowin'
Rollin' with my stolen moments, am I
Live and die, gettin' by, that's the motion of Chi
Free and pain are identical, intervals of an inner-school
Lyrical what the spirit do, miracles when I interview
Myself, waitin' for my soul to reply, no matter where I go the answer is, "Why?"
There goes the wind again, an emblem
A divine adrenaline and I'ma sin again
Forgiveness is a synonym for 'live and live again'
The world need a DR like the Dominican
Republic, the subject is matter over mind
Life is a practice, a travelin' in time

Might take some practice, take some practice
Might take some practice
Looking out on my life, my sights
In the fast lane, it's a rat race
Give me time, give me time, changing pathways
Might take some practice, take some practice
Might take some practice

Mountains sing songs, kings dream long
In simple acts is when a scene forms
I improv to improve and involve the "been throughs"
The "them falls", the "them fools", the 'brick walls" and venues
Symbol assembled to continue
It was written and God don't use pencils
Demented a dimension and extensions of a man
Intention of divine intervention in a plan
Remnants of when I ran, footprints in the sand
The son of man gave me a tan, that's who I am
The emphatical, radical, mathematical
Travel to capitals, in actual fact, extract practical
I seen pain to make the day cry, it takes practice somebody tell AI
Everyday I pray I stay my course, hopin' my actions obey my thoughts

Might take some practice, take some practice
Might take some practice
Looking out on my life, my sights
In the fast lane, it's a rat race
Give me time, give me time, changing pathways
Might take some practice, take some practice
Might take some practice
