Face It
t0ny Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it

When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it

Been about a half a minute since I came to rap
Momma never thought that I'd be getting in to trap
I'm facing that I'm changing and I'm never coming back
No Anthony only T0ny on the track

So
I'm just
Doing things on my own
Because
That's the way I been grown
No I'm not
Gonna bitch and moan
About
How I been grown

Imma use my rap to talk about me
Imma use my rap to let all my peers see
That I can use music like this to cure me
That I can use music of any kind, now let me be

I'm just
Doing things on my own
Because
That's the way I been grown
No I'm not
Gonna bitch and moan
About
How I been grown

When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it
When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it

I'm using this song as a way to cope
Can't face my problems there ain't no hope
Without creating yeah that's my trope
So imma try to make songs that are dope

No idea if I'll succeed
A man that's tries is what I gotta be
Trying to get over all the times that I fall
Short so that I can learn from it all

Now
I'm just
Doing things on my own
Because
That's the way I been grown
No I'm not
Gonna bitch and moan
About
How I been grown

Facing my lanes changing
Thought I could stay the same
Turns out that would be lame
Using my rhymes and raps as evolution
Can I really do this?

When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it
When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it

Now it's time to face it
Now it's time to face it
Now it's time to face it
Now it's time to face it

Everyone and anyone I know today is negative
Facing that it holds me back is definitely definite
Everyone and anyone I know today is sensitive
Don't take it out on me you know that I am not yo' nemesis
I cannot face my own stress let alone yours
I don't wanna deal with my shit own let alone yours

When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it
When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it

When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it
All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it
When am I ever gonna face it?
Face it
A dream won't come true till I chase it
Chase it
Motivation so close I can taste it
Taste it

All the pressure so heavy I can't take it
Take it
