[Verse 1: Cise Starr]
So what's my motivation, the answer is complicated
Highly debated, I'm waiting, someday I'm going to make it
Come to the proof of the matter in the conversation
Every day’s a struggle, the climb to higher elevation
Peace, as I wander on these city streets
The world is just a stage we made, get outta your seats
Participate in this play, the attendants increase
Hoping that we get it together before the final feat
Steadfast even if we come in dead last
Gotta keep it moving, even though the jet lag
This is to the bus pass and the first class
Whoever you are, we gotta make it and hold fast
Improvise your lines, we only one take
The camera rolling, we going, every day is the case
Even through the mistakes, bring it together and make
A show called "Life" written by the human race
[Hook: Cise Starr]
Lift the curtain, come hear the exposition
Building the climax, everyday a new audition
Seeing the story unfold, what's your contribution
Hoping for catastrophe or working the resolution?
Lift the curtain, come hear the exposition
Building the climax, everyday a new audition

[Verse 2: Cise Starr]
Directed by a higher power of shadows and lies
Either way the show must go on, baby, we have to strive
Diving into the block, life is moving, nothing stops
Either you watching or participating, know your parts
Hit your mark, cause time is money so pay the cost
Or your understudy who prepared come and take your spot
That's how it is, day to day, just a struggle, live
Everyday an episode, the pilot started at the crib
Until the credits roll, I'm gonna show the world my soul
Spitting on the critics, cause in the end, I played my role
Without a script, ad-libbed all of my lines
Genuine to the finish accolades in due time
Until then, I audition for the leading part
Realizing the director knows that we all the stars
At some point, we all are in the limelight
It's all about what you do when it shines right

[Verse 3: Cise Starr]
Follow my dreams up to going to the next scene
Breaking through the fourth wall, keep it interesting
Between the unforeseen and obscene
We run into the conclusion of it, all not what it seems
We climax and fall down, we on stage
What's the solution? Resolution is next page
The audience engaged, watching us coming of age
Will it end in a blaze of glory or fire, end of days?
Regardless, I'm gonna finish what I started
When the crowd see in my heart, a new performance
Cause if they do, I will rise to the pinnacle
This main character working miracles through the difficult
Situations, transform through many phases
Gotta keep it together so maybe I'll make it
And if not, my journey was still amazing
Curtain call, lights on, got my standing ovation
