"Halfway Home" lyrics

Rocking my smile while they couldn't see me coming out
Negativity surrounds me, but that's not what I'm about
What I'm about to tell you really shouldn't have concern
I live and learn in everything I gotta know that I earned
Putting people in check, looking out for respect
Living life up in my culture, trying to put on all the volts
Trying to separate my enemies and unite my friends
I lead by example instead of following trends
Making ends, I learned too many people pretend
Bout to hit you with the truth that becomes part of the plan
Just a feeling that I got, I gotta make it on my own
Takashee, reap the benefits, I'm halfway home

Halfway home
Not going back
I'm on my own
I'm halfway home
Halfway home
Not going back
I'm on my own
I'm halfway home

Let passion, trends and music blend and bring it back
Just a real emcee finding my way to light up the track
How's that? Rhetorical, historical attack
Never underestimate my plethora of raps
I contradict normality, hip-hop is not a fallacy
Reality is, I wish high genres didn't exist
Look at this: a combination, many variations
Plus a solid foundation, and it is what it is
Steady making moves, making moves steadily, readily
I am deadly when I rip through any melody
Heavily armed and officially warned
I lay it all on the line when it's on, it's on

Halfway home
Not going back
I'm on my own
I'm halfway home
Halfway home
Not going back
I'm on my own
I'm halfway home

Sometimes I got the blues, I gotta get back up
Remembering this shit happens and it really ain't what's up
Just some good old-fashioned rapper rebirth for what it's worth
I'll beat you to the finish line, but first things first
Won't settle for less, just my mother could guess
I'm doing what I love, what I love to do, feeling blessed
So don't stress, I've used the skills that I've honed
There ain't no stopping me now, cause I'm halfway home

Steady making moves, making moves steadily, readily
I am deadly when I rip through any melody
Heavily armed and officially warned
I lay it all on the line when it's on, it's on
Steady making moves, making moves steadily, readily
I am deadly when I rip through any melody
Heavily armed and officially warned
I lay it all on the line when it's on, it's on

Halfway home
Not going back
I'm on my own
I'm halfway home
Halfway home
Not going back
I'm on my own
I'm halfway home
