(Alex Post, (c) 2008)

Chorus:
Ooooâ?¦aint nothing shorter th an time, come along for the ride.
Ooooâ?¦just another one of a kind so come along for the ride.
Ooooâ?¦aint nothing shorter than time, come along for the ride.
Ooooâ?¦still got something to find, so come along for the ride.

First Verse:
Ladies and gentlemen, I present peace, love and more love
To the atmosphere of tuned hate and lust
To watch us rise above to a place where man,
Can simply understand and enjoy a dope hook with a fresh emcee,
Bringing more than just the average and the ordinary.
So let the music find a way to your soul, I know you got it,
Move your body like your free, you got a reason to party.
Get loose let your soul survive
Live free, love peace and come along for the ride.
You know it's time to be yourself, liberate the hand you've been dealt and come alive,
Keep your head high, enjoy the times.

Chorus

Second Verse:
Grab a hold of the rhythm and take a free ride to paradise,
We aint got no time to waste, so move aside
If you aint coming along, don't be a writers block,
We just chasing our dreams avoiding afterthoughts.
Everything we bring is keeping it live
Let your ear drum jam to the vibe.
Keep the rhythm moving forward, bring my people inside
Find something to find, and supply for your mind.
We got the v-12's spinning, the emcees gripping the mics
See diversity from adults to little tykes, tryin to put on a show
Cuz everybody wants to be a big thing,
Taking big swings
To be a rare commodity subtract all the suffering,
You're already one of a kind so
You know Its time to be yourself, liberate the hand you've been dealt and come alive,
Keep your head high, enjoy the times.

Chorus

Hidden Track:
Opportunity has risen so I'm taking the field,
Working up my strength and mind to reveal,
Given the situation that, rhythm would relate with cats
Find the computation that
The opportunity diminishing is finicky still,
Nothing bounds the strength of your will,
Don't let anybody tell you that you don't deserve it.
Break the chains that make us nervous
Do your thing like not a soul even cares
It's time to take my turn and chase my given design,
I'm created with desires that can fully be mine,
Set aside all the greedy man's prizes,
If I could just be me when opportunity rises

Break freeâ?¦
I'm created with desires that can fully be mine,
Break freeâ?¦
Set aside all the greedy man's prizes.
Break freeâ?¦
If I could just be me when opportunity rises,
The world could take its turns but I would have my response,
And maybe make a difference in the hearts of the lost.
Please take a few seconds to enjoy the instrumentalâ?¦
