Flashing Before Your Eyes Lyrics
All I do is shine
All I do is what I wanna like the world is mine
The most precious resource you get in life is time
So take care of it 'cause I'm taking care of mine
Been planting seeds, potted through, water it then you grow it
And this life'll flash before your eyes before you know it
Only heaven is right above it or below it
But this ain't Adam Sandler in "Click", you can't fast forward or slow it
Solid as a sculpture or statue standing stoic
Become a villain or you die doing something heroic
Imagine working hard your whole life
Yeah, you gеt one opportunity
Would you capture or would you just—fuck it
'Cause it could go fastеr than fast, the past in the flash
Momma used to tell me when you laugh then you last
Or get lost in the source chasing after them cash
You better than that, leave the past in the past
Looking back on that first tour, no matter how hard you worked
You might not always get what you worked for
Life's not fair, and when you love it it hurts more
That's when you know you really love it
Yeah, my name is Logic
And goddamn it, yeah, you know I'm on my grind
And at this moment in time I'm killing it with the rhyme
Ain't nobody so defiant, it's only one of a kind
Aquarius is the sign, give a fuck about the times
And I'm on it, pulling them strings, they feel harmonic
Word to the B-I-G L like it's "Ebonics"
Peep the sonics, it's only a body like gin and tonic
When I rhyme it everybody hooked like it was straight up phonics
Make me wonder if it's a generational thing
Q-Tip, Dilla, with the swing, it's like money ain't a thing
I'm trying to get the bling, but the kingdom it ain't the ring
Yeah, it's all about family and everything that it bring
Lost in translation and secret like I'm a mason
Took it to The Garden, a flower grew from the basement
Everything is so adjacent, I wonder just where the pace went?
Had a lot of hard times in my life but glad I faced it
