Back against the wall
So hard to strike the ball
Racket comes up short
Down my mind's hall
I hear failure's footfalls
Not a champion's clarion
Makes me feel like a living carrion
Man is born to war
I hear the info deep
In my heart's core
Like a montage for Vikings
Yet victory seldom
Stirs the cauldron
Staring into the norm
For a glimpse of the new morn
Browsing the same subject
While tryna breed a new prospect
They scrambled the rules of engagement
I attract problems like a magnet
Can't leapfrog the parapet
An invisible wall
Squeezes the air outta my lungs
I keep reaching for a door
Where there is no door
Where it once used to be
But it moved since
Adam obliged Eve
Can't take leave
Of absence while tryna achieve
I'd sooner grieve
But maintaining stat
Quo's my pet peeve
It weighs on my shoulder
Exerting unbearable pressure
That make my lungs boil like lava
It serves to fate I'm sure
I delve into the archives
I resurface with a truckload of jives
I stumble in n' out of tricks
The old ways have lost their magic
I'm losing touch with my reality
N' with it the game's surreality
Meanwhile my growth's stuck
In a blue funk
What cudda gone wrong
I'm tryna process the junk
What fate served on the plate
Concept's hard to contemplate
I'm pinned like a pinafore
Back against the ropes
I'm the life of a metaphor
Twisted like a bag of ropes
A diamond studded sky
A breather on a dreary midnight
A letter from the Divine
Polkadot on the landscape
N' finally a way of escape
There's nuggets of hope to navigate
Where there was no way
Thorns n' briars trimmed
I'm coming off the rim
The taste of sweat
Like the salt of the earth
That sharp tang on my tongue
Makes me feel like I belong
I'm vibing second wind
It's filling my lungs like a scream
My vision blurs with tears
The release of pent-up stress
If I wait any longer
I cudn't hold the hunger
I'm getting stronger
The footfalls of failure
Recede into the distance
I experience inner rupture
The birth pangs of second chance
Pressed against the wall
Sweat running down my back
Makes it slick like oiled cog
I'm about to make a comeback
Phantom of the anaconda
The darkness cannot hold me back
The machines of yesterday's aches
Grind to a screeching halt
The hustle has got to pay
My work shall not decay
I'm resetting the clock
Of my heart to run the dock
I'm no longer a sitting duck
No longer a can on the wall
For some fool's target practice
I'm cooking up killer tactics
I can feel the wall shiver
A tremor runs thru its liver
Believe me I'm a believer
My grip on the racket's
Both stronger n' firmer
I rise like the stock market
I'm ready for whatever fate serves
I decoded the message in the stars
There's lessons in the scars
That bright twinkle is favor's wink
I reinforced the weakest link
I step back in the court
Throw fire on the spot
Ball flies like a rocket
Shot from a cannon
I came to close the bracket
To steal the grand slam
Put a pause on the bedlam
Back off the wall
Take a walk like a god.
