Now's the time, today's the day I took in my hands
To make a new plan, to make a stand
And I always knew that I would pay my dues
And speak what I believe to be true
Now's the time to move from the old start living the new
To find warm from the cold and share it with my crew
I may be broke but I'd still pay the price
'Cause today's the first day of the rest of your lives
Right now, as we speak the seconds keep on ticking
I ain't racing the clock but I'm not becoming a victim
Or dwelling on the past instead making sure the good times last
All we need are simple things that ain't to much to ask
I've let to much go past, worrying about how times moving fast
So know I've chosen my task I'm moving from my past
And give a hundred percent to living from my heart
That's how i know today's the day for a fresh start
Look to the horizon a new day arriving so I keep my soul surviving
I ain't striving for a little life filled with strife when
I can apply what you and I should realise and
This be an often risky road filled full of treachery
Jealously definitely coming from those
Who appose your dreams and codes it seems to slow
But my belief is released to go
So let it flow and let it quench the thirst to yearn
'Cause you reap what you sow and deserve what you earn
And with your negativity I'm not concerned
'Cause we live and let learn for there's no return
Now what the fuck do we know? Nothing but everything
Knowledge all encompassing but hiding out for human beings
Look closer so it be seen the books open and records clean
So now scope your inner being where information has always been
From day one, vibrating different frequencies creating
Dimensions be stating, reality the time and date in
And separating through physical integrating through conciseness
Elevating your vehicle 'cause in reality just one of us
Eject your mental movies concentrate on whats in front
Contemplate the past and future when the presents what you want
You can't go back to yesterday and tomorrow you can only hope
No matter the situation when it comes you learn to cope
Dope crimes and sex teens drinking to
Excess driving pissed trying to impress
Should be yearning to express these be the years to progress
Problems come don't run address, you don't won't to be turning thirty
Then learning to deal with stress
Now's the time, today's the day I took in my hands
To make a new plan, to make a stand
And I always knew that I would pay my dues
And speak what I believe to be true
Now's the time to move from the old start living the new
To find warm from the cold and share it with my crew
I may be broke but I'd still pay the price
'Cause today's the first day of the rest of your lives
Since today's the first day of the rest of our lives
I've made a decision to start living right
Within myself, within the scene, within my health, within my dreams
The hard times we felt and what they really mean
Is up to me is up to you is up to everyone
Until you see my point of view my job ain't ever done
And just that thought helps me strive for the next day
Giving the picture clear using words in the best ways
So open your eyes, then open your minds
You're hoping to find a little peace of mind
But what it takes is a little more than that
'Cause one minute you're flying high the next you're flat on your back
Wake up to a new day get it straight, yup
Let it gravitate keep you based in your place, luck
Has a minor stake in the way that you made up
Today it can change even though yesterday's fucked
Now's the time, today's the day I took in my hands
To make a new plan, to make a stand
And I always knew that I would pay my dues
And speak what I believe to be true
Now's the time to move from the old start living the new
To find warm from the cold and share it with my crew
I may be broke but I'd still pay the price
'Cause today's the first day of the rest of your lives
