One Step Ahead Lyrics by Revolutionary Rhythm

2014

[Verse 1: Kid Abstrakt]
I stay ahead of my time, you can follow the leader
I'm lookin' up to the skies, I always been a dreamer
I take a deep breather despite my parents' pressure
It's a pleasure to be under the Cali weather
Making a move at a time, but yo, we shootin' far
And we listenin' to Tribe and some Gang Starr
It's nothing but the raw, some shit that you can feel
We take it back for the heads, that's keepin' it real
It's just another day, searching for a better pay
No regrets, not thinkin' 'bout my past mistakes
'Cause to play the game, you gotta find your motivation
Stay ahead of competition, I know I'll make it
Never quit, cause success is what I predict
How you gon' take a step and haven't even laced the kicks?
I stay prepared for whatever's next in store
I'm moving just a step, but I'm still ahead of yours

[Chorus: Aretha Franklin]
Only one step ahead of your love
Only one step ahead of your love
Only one step ahead of your love
Only one step ahead of your love
Only—

[Verse 2: Predominance]
One small step for mankind
One giant leap for fat rhymes
I got a critical case of cranium calculation
I keep all my thoughts connected, quick to keep my destination
Operation our day-to-day, human occupations
I know it ain't a race, but I'm the first to lose my patience
I need to find relation, try different combinations
"Go do this, go do that"
Now, I don't know, but they just
Think that they wiser 'cause their skill look ill like raisins
I'm affiliated with an underground world, not the Masons
Not the category, probably something more historical, metaphorical, time warp, dinosaur-ical
Was that even a word? Well, fuck, it I'll still use it though
I like to have a good time, but never take me as a joke
My vocab don't exist, go ahead, laugh, bruh
But one day it will, I'm one step ahead of ya (Ahead of ya)

[Chorus: Aretha Franklin]
Only one step ahead of your love
Only one step ahead of your love
Only one step ahead of your love
Only one step ahead of your love
Only—
