Steve Hong - Present to the Past (feat. J-Kim) [Prod. By Jacob Lethal] Lyrics




On the 101 to the 805
Got me thinking of myself, 2005
Fantasizing about a life ahead of time
Way ahead of time, (Oh my)
What an imagination, I say
High school graduation ain't too far away
Teachers saying shit that I already say
Ready, get started, let's get underway
But slow it down, slow it down
It's all about the journey, not the destination
Life is full of doubts and the temptations
Every action could set off another chain reaction
Control time don't let time control you
Stay steady now, and God shall reveal the truth

I can't hold back forever
Diamonds shine from pressure
The time is now or never
Let's take a chance
Don't hold it back
Don't hold it back
Let's make it last
P-Present to the Past
Don't hold it back
Don't hold it back
The time is now or never

What's the difference in being real and fake?
When you're so lost in yourself
Don't know which road to take
I see the friends everyone say that I need
It's pretty how they can all smile through their teeth
But look at their eyes, I can hear their minds speak
A little bit closer they saying, Yo Steve
There's a hundred million people trying to do what you do
What makes you think they'd give a f*ck about you
Don't you think it's time that you get a damn clue?
Get a job, get a wife, get a motherf*cking life
Get a grip on your sights
The truth cuts like a knife
We don't really mean to knock your vibe
We just want to give you the facts to survive
Aw well
I ain't trying to survive, I'm trying to live
Whatever it takes? Yeah I'm willing to give
It ain't enough, then it aint enough
They saying it rough, but I'm staying in tough
Ain't no other way around it
Ain't no other way to chase it
Ain't no other to get it
But I'm a tell you one thing, even if I don't make it

I can't hold back forever
Diamonds shine from pressure
The time is now or never
Let's take a chance
Don't hold it back
Don't hold it back
Let's make it last
P-Present to the Past
Don't hold it back
Don't hold it back
The time is now or never

Listen
If you took your time to look back at the life you lived
Would you really want that?
Shit done rearranged
New clothes, new path, new snapback
But snapping back to reality
Life split parts, naturally
We ain't really sitting here
Talking about the Red Sea
We spitting here talking about you in the past
You in the time when you about to crash
The younger one of you that you left in the rear view
Forget the bull, don't become a fool
Stay intact, take steps back, think it twice
The pain you felt, stays miniscule
Struggle of life, no teach, no school
But if you can't take that, go back, stay relaxed
Live in traps, Do your thing, be a tool
No truth, where it at?
The dream you decide to chase, resides with faith
But fate takes you to a different place
Lace that with the skills you take
Take what's given, but don't give to take
Lesson learned
Never that and this right here my present
I'm a give it and I'm a have it, I'm a give it right to you
The me in the past

P-present to the past
