about

I don't stop until I'm done! I keep moving and moving and won't stop until I'm done! This song is all about the energy and doing what you can at 100% no matter how exhausted you are. How bad do you want it?

lyrics

[VERSE 1]:
I don’t really care
what you think about me!
Let’s go a little deeper
on the subject while we’re on it.
You need what I offer.
Sporadic like Jackson Pollack.
Got reach like an Apostle
but my Creed is Adonis!
My daily routine would
Make most of you so exhausted
You’d probably vomit or pass out
Around seven o’clock-ish!
But I gotta keep rocking
No stopping...
Any interruption to my process
Could quickly hinder my progress
Congressional Black Caucus,
To stages with Craig Robinson
Rapping with Traprock
And for hall of fame martial artists
I do it all for my mother
RIP to my father
Used his name Night Train
To pay homage and take it farther
If you’re not paying my bills
Don’t comment or bother
Iron sharpens iron
And I’m trying to get even sharper
And if you’re not about solutions
Then you are part of the problem!
And for everyone that’s with me
Prepare to do it up proper!

[HOOK]:
🎵I’m on my own
Must be strong
And I know
What’s going on
And if I don’t
I play along!
And I’m not finished
Until I’m done!
🎵Til I’m Done
Til I’m done
And I’m not finished
Until I’m done!
Til I’m Done
Til I’m done
And I’m not finished
Until I’m done!

[VERSE 2]:
Build it up then burn it all down
with Gasoline and matches
May sound sporadic but there is
A method to the madness
Let go of my attachments
like a Jedi Masters...
But adaptive like Sith Lords
switching up the tactics
The simple fact is
When you’re young life is magic
But then reality strikes back
And causes disenchantment.
You may feel stuck
But don’t ignore all your advances
The lie we tell our kids
Is that adults have all the answers
Take advantage
of all the information granted
And seek out more knowledge
Than a lot of folks can manage!
Too many are okay
With being below average.
Do it up then do it big
Then do it Supermassive
Stop asking! Stop being passive!
Life is how you make it
But also a game chances
A mixed bag of madness
Try keep your sanity
Advancing to success
Pass the bruises and the scratches!

[HOOK]:
🎵I’m on my own
I Must be strong
And I know
What’s going on
And if I don’t
I play along!
And I’m not finished
Until I’m done!
🎵Til I’m Done
Til I’m done
And I’m not finished
Until I’m done!
Til I’m Done
Til I’m done
And I’m not finished
Until I’m done!

[VERSE 3]:
You gotta move a little closer.
Get it done!
You gotta get lower
Get it done!
And it ain’t over till it’s over.
Get it done!
You’ve got a weight up on your shoulder, but you get it done!
And through the struggle don’t forget
You’re not the only one.
You have to get aboard
Before the mothership gone.
Although the world is full of problems
And the list is long
There’s someone out there working
Just as hard to keep it going.
—-
A.S.D.T. and me are like besties
specially when we rhyme with best beats
Wreck it like Ralph.
What were you expecting?
Well...(I don’t) care and stuff, but I care enough to set an example of how ample I trample the track. Take it to the max! From the front, to the back, to the side, to the lady with backstage pass. Ya’ll don’t know how to act! ......Brace for the attack with shoulder pads like you’re playing Madden with the Green Bay Packers!
from Maryland but I’m Barry Allen
I’m from DC but I’ll B-More faster
...Melody..telling me..F all the jealously.
Stick a fork in me. I am D-O-N-E! (done)
