Steps Lyrics by Kenji

Settling In

2017

Mic check, Mic check 1, 2
Yeah, yeah
It all started with a step then evolved into a movement
This music had molded me into a person in tune with the rhythms that surrounded me

The haters started doubting me but no one could attempt to be the person I was bound to be
Now I've grown with no intention to stop
Dropping knowledge like a nervous librarian
While kicking veteren flows that's better than most
Selling out shows
Never forget my past 'Cause it wasn't so long ago
I was broke, chocking on herb, writing words in my palm
Keeping calm 'Cause a level head will always keep you strong
This long road chasing the gold but getting silver
I went back to the grims 'Cause mom ain't raise a quitter
I'll be damned if I give in after all that I put in
Gassed up on inspiration, sparked the ignition, pealed off
Navigated my way though the dark and never a fallen to victim to people disguised as sharks

Follow my heart even if it lead me to ruin
Allowed to make mistakes 'cause damn, I'm only human (Right?)
Chasing the light that's calling to me
No matter how much you try there's nobody else that can do me
Follow my heart even if it lead me to ruin
Allowed to make mistakes 'cause damn, I'm only human (Right?)
Chasing the light that's calling to me
No matter how much you try there's nobody else that can do me

Life under pressure has me learning every single day
Changing my ways to escape this phase
Riding the waves hope it takes me to a different place to where I'm at
Finally made it out but them problems try to pull me back
Until that mindset that never lets go, they hate to see you rise so they keep you below
Instead I flow on the hands of my fans during the show
Stacking doe so my family will never have to be poor
Putting in the work or always strive to be perfect
Knee deep in the game without even scratching the surface
Searching for purpose in this puzzling game
The struggle is universal, we all go through the pain
Different lanes that all lead into the same destination
Wanna free my mind and reach the state of elevation
Tired of waitin', see it's now or never
Kenji and Philanthrope repping chillhop forever

Follow my heart even if it lead me to ruin
Allowed to make mistakes 'cause damn, I'm only human (Right?)
Chasing the light that's calling to me
No matter how much you try there's nobody else that can do me
Follow my heart even if it lead me to ruin
Allowed to make mistakes 'cause damn, I'm only human (Right?)
Chasing the light that's calling to me
No matter how much you try there's nobody else that can do me
