Whoever has faced a crowd can relate
I rap but I ain't no rapper
I sing but I ain't no singer
I bet on what I feel better
I'm awake but still a dreamer

I think of what was untold
And my feelings get unfold
The words, too heavy to hold
Drop like explosive loads

I write but I ain't no writer
I think and I'm also no thinker
I ju'strive to see world brighter
Desperately trying not to shiver

I print the pain on the paper
I burn my heart and my pipe
Making believe I'm a rain maker
When I'm on stage holding the mic

The tears and smiles I've carried
The weight I held on my shoulders
It all finally gets expelled
And I can't wait to do it over

So I better take my stance
And chase another chance
'Cause every time I do it again
I keep hoping it never ends
