Transcendent

Lyrics

[Chorus] Will the history of your life be written down? Will they speak of you a hundred years from now? Will what you do stay relevant and eternally last? Will you make your own way or just follow the same path? Will the history of your life be written down? Will they speak of you a hundred years from now? Will what you do stay relevant and eternally last? Will you make your own way or just follow the same path? [Verse 1] Yeah What does it mean to be transcendent? It simply means any error that ever existed you can stand in it I am the man who brings color to the bland image Determined to make originality a pandemic How do you do it? Place yourself in every known time To accomplish this you have to think beyond your own mind The real truth with the gifts the creator deals you And while you live, choose to make music that will outlive you Hard to compare you, it's a spiritual battle What you unravel alters the course individuals travel Straight blessed with high levels of excellence sustained And the standards that you established, that precedent remains Not afraid to be original, style standing alone They don't wait to see what others are doing, they set the tone Socially, politically, athletically fashion the music The greats don't follow trends, they give birth to movements [Chorus] Will the history of your life be written down? Will they speak of you a hundred years from now? Will what you do stay relevant and eternally last? Will you make your own way or just follow the same path? Will the history of your life be written down? Will they speak of you a hundred years from now? Will what you do stay relevant and eternally last? Will you make your own way or just follow the same path? [Verse 2] What does it mean to be transcendent? Never placing yourself in a box, the intention is to expand limits Having that gift that they call vision When they play your songs, you, your children and your grandchildren can all listen For every topic there's a record they can play Your voice being heard somewhere every second of the day Your impactful words have people affected in a way That their behavior patterns change and they reflect on what you say, and Everyday other will listen they'll discover you And fall in love with you, scholars and college students study you Though not necessarily famous or smartest, your works exalted And immortalized by painters and artists And triggering every emotional feeling on the spectrum Intercepting the world's pressures, hoping to redirect 'em And what you give 'em, you nice, raising religion And pays homage to the God who placed you in that position So tell me [Chorus] Will the history of your life be written down? Will they speak of you a hundred years from now? Will what you do stay relevant and eternally last? Will you make your own way or just follow the same path? Will the history of your life be written down? Will they speak of you a hundred years from now? Will what you do stay relevant and eternally last? Will you make your own way or just follow the same path? [Verse 3] Critics malign you and no single category defines you Your mind unleashes future new breeds coming behind you With bills steadily faded or outdated, you'll never be Your words are medicine and your music will serve as therapy And the only common rule is that you did it how you wanna do They all respond to you, people from every country honor you And some won't understand and abandon you but the true won't They remember all the words to your songs, even when you don't They appreciate the value and back you with no issue They roll with you forever, evolve and grow with you You never fade with unlimited homage being paid The talent that comes away for the message to be conveyed Many people being saved, you speakin' out on what matters Ascending the the stratosphere of legendary status Everybody wants to meet you, accomplishments go unequaled And the greatest thing about you is you did it for the people, man [Chorus] Will the history of your life be written down? Will they speak of you a hundred years from now? Will what you do stay relevant and eternally last? Will you make your own way or just follow the same path? Will the history of your life be written down? Will they speak of you a hundred years from now? Will what you do stay relevant and eternally last? Will you make your own way or just follow the same path?
