Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Falling from the sky can you believe it
Living for the day and not the weekend
Feeling so good, I'm a way now
They so new school but on the wave now
I am just the man that they wanna be
And I don't mind if they start in front of me
And I could be as as I wanna be
I'm treated like a daddy
There's no that you are sonnin' me
Upset I've seen enough shrimp to raw
I don't wanna make myself too comfortable
Long as my family straight, I'm on a roll
Baby this is all in faith, I'm kinda cold
Rewind
Brace yourself the quiet storm is coming
I'm conflicted, I should give the warning
Can't conform cause I can see the finish
Soon or later they gon' have to listen

Walked with God and got aligned
Had a lot up on my mindstate
Tried to tell me there was no way
So I had to move my own way
Walked with God and got aligned
Had a lot up on my mindstate
Tried to tell me there was no way
So I had to move my own way

And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that

How can I not make it to the finish?
Young Mike Phelps how I'm in it
Crown up by the wrist and I'ma live it
Get up out the way if you ain't with it like
MOVE all I really see is fake bosses
They ain't got hands, can't toss us
They ain't look a thing like Jesus
Why they even tryna cross us? I'm
Anybody wants to dance, the DoseyDoe
You can see that this the, so hold your nose
You ain't seem to get the pic, hold your pose
(move) hands up high like alter call
You could say we Dwayne the Rock
We Rock and Roll
All the way to Heavens gates
Might slip and fall i'ma always get back up
Don't stop the show i'm on one

Walked with God and got aligned
Had a lot up on my mindstate
Tried to tell me there was no way
So I had to move my own way
Walked with God and got aligned
Had a lot up on my mindstate
Tried to tell me there was no way
So I had to move my own way

And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that
And it's going down like that

I am not a slave to your masters
Prolly cause I own my own masters
Sell your whole soul for advances
Laughing out loud at you rappers
Jokes all on you dog
I'm making moves like U haul
Had to cut a couple people off
Now my circle lookin' like dot
Hittin' home runs, they just runnin' bases
They switching sides, they just sound wasted
I'm out there running 'round with house money
What's the point in tryna make
A deal with satan
I've been watching God just to see his moves
Feeling like I'm on Facetime
Mr minor, you just keep it true
Don't you worry 'bout a lil' face time agh

Walked with God and got aligned
Had a lot up on my mindstate
Tried to tell me there was no way

Me Michael

Damn! I was excited to see Ruslan and Derek Minor collaborating, especially due to the current mindset displayed in D. Minor’s latest music. I’ve never even heard Jon Keith until now but he went IN and I really enjoyed his flow. Same goes for Ruslan, but he’s always been an inspiration to me. That’s why I had to get him on a couple tracks ;) Dope stuff guys! Loving the energy of the movement.

Congrats on another banger. You are looking more and more poised as the years go on. Not saying that you weren't comfortable rocking the mix, but you are just becoming more of a master of the art. Keep pushing!
