30 to Life
[Intro]
Hey everyone/
So today we're talking about life/
I mean… lifes short right/
But it doesn't seem that way/
When we only have our lifespan to judge how long life is/
But life is eternal/
We are not fortunately and unfortunately/
So our best bet/
Is to just make the best of what we've been given/
And whether something comes after/
Whether our life force is transferred on/
Or even if there's nothing/
I mean especially if there's nothing/
We just gotta make this count/

[Verse 1]
If I'm not living for my dreams/
What am I living for?/
Lifes like a movie you've never seen/
Do not fast forward/
Do not skip a scene/
I wanna live through all of it/
No matter what that means/
The good, the bad, the ugly/
Every discovery/
Everyone who loves me/
Even the ones who hate me/
Every mistake we made along the way/
See, it's all worth the experience in the end/
Xp, level up, now I'm nineteen/
Writing what I think is inspiring/
Admiring the entities/
Expiring around me/
Aspiring to astound thee/
I found meaning/
Yeah, I found purpose/

[Midtro]
See the thing is/
I don't think life is measured in years/
To me/
It seems life is more accurately measured/
Through your experiences on this earth/
What you've gone through/
What you've accomplished/
The people you've met/
The things you've seen/
I mean I think we can all agree/
That life is simply amazing/

[Verse 2]
Every hope I have is worth hoping for/
Every goal I set, is worth moving towards/
Every chord I rap to/
It's not like I have to do it/
But I have to/
They may laugh at you/
Well that's okay/
The may come after you/
Well that's okay/
They may bask at you/
And wonder how to do the same/
Well that's okay/
Well that's okay/
Yeah that's okay/
I'm in that exact same place/
Looking up at famous faces/
Like how can I ever make it/
Shake that thought away/
Mental state stabilized/
Gracefully immortalized/
Within the lines that I spit/
Even if I don't make it/
At least I made this/

[Outro]
Because in the end, it's not gonna matter/
Whether I get recognized for my creations/
Or not/
I'm doing what I love/
I'm spending my time enveloped in something/
That feels bigger than my own life/
And I have people to support me along the way/
So I'm ready to live through the rest of my days/
