Push
Pharoahe Monch feat. Showtyme Mela Machinko & Tower of Power Lyrics

Pushin', pushin', pushin', pushin'
The act of persevering and pushing through hardship, obstacles, and struggles.

I live my life one day at a time
Taking life one step at a time and trying to live in the present moment.

Whoa, my head, so I don't lose my mind
Keeping one's mind focused and clear while enduring life's challenges.

Sometimes you might fall down
Acknowledging that failure is possible and can occur.

But you get back up, get on your journey
Resilience in the face of adversity and getting back on track towards personal goals.

I walked downstairs in my body?s light
Moving forward with optimism, feeling light and unencumbered.

And pushed my struggles, endured my pride
Overcoming personal challenges and being willing to swallow one's pride.

I fear no man, I know wrong from right
Feeling confident and clear about one's moral compass and values.

We push until the day we see the light
Persevering and pushing forward until personal goals are achieved.

Your weak ass compubot's power shots mix fly over me
Ignoring the negative opinions of others, especially those who do not understand one's work.

My accurate jabs connect like rotary
Having precision and skill in one's work, comparable to a boxer's precision jabs.

Make you notice me, be like damn, dudes on some totally
Standing out and impressing others by being exceptional and unique in one's work.

When he rides the bass line like Ginobili
Having a smooth and effortless approach in one's work, like a basketball player gliding to the basket.

I'm vocally unmatched, globally with the flow
Having an exceptional and unparalleled talent in one's craft, worldwide.

Slow on the ground but more public than notary
Being methodical and grounded in one's approach, while still having public recognition and influence.

Push, in this era of G.W. Bush
Using one's art or work to resist and fight against oppressive powers or systems.

We must load mental ammunition and bust, thus
Having mental strength and resilience to fight against injustices.

I'm a hold you down, I got you
Being supportive and reliable for others, especially during difficult times.

One more repetition, I'm a spot you
Being encouraging and helpful in pushing others to achieve their personal goals.

This is for my blue collar workin', beer guzzlin'
Acknowledging and celebrating the hardworking and everyday people who inspire and push us forward.

Bootleg, D-V-D sellin', keep hustlin', push
Encouraging people to keep pushing and striving towards their goals, regardless of how unconventional their methods may be.

If you represent the struggle, then push
Encouraging those who embody struggle to keep pushing forward and striving for personal success.

Peep the pieces of the puzzle and push
Encouraging people to analyze and understand the complexities of their personal struggles and obstacles, and to push forward regardless.

Never let 'em place a muzzle, just push
Encouraging people to not let the negative opinions or judgment of others silence them or hold them back, but instead to continue pushing forward and pursuing their goals.

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Reinforcing the need for perseverance and endurance in the face of challenges and obstacles.

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Reinforcing the need for perseverance and endurance in the face of challenges and obstacles.

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Reinforcing the need for perseverance and endurance in the face of challenges and obstacles.

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Reinforcing the need for perseverance and endurance in the face of challenges and obstacles.
