[K-Rino, Ashlei Mayadia - Once It's Done lyrics]
No stopping time when it’s begun
Work your way through problems when they come
Can’t win the battle if you run
Every day is a trip around the Sun
It’s all the same no matter where you from
Doesn’t matter if you’re old or young
There’s enough blessings for everyone
I got the world at my disposal
Yet still I remain lonely
I’m a grown man with real struggles
And bills in my name, homie
Got some people who think I’m evil
While some others believe I’m holy
I hear more statements about me from
Folks who don’t even know me
It ain’t hard to lose your mind these days
I’ve seen a lot of men flip
And now I’m seeing ideological
Differences end friendships
The bond y’all had was busted
The words no longer trusted
And when it’s time to talk
Some dudes don’t have the
Fortitude to discuss it
See I don’t mind receiving
Correction or internal reflection
From happiness to depression
Man I done covered that whole spectrum
And I learned quicker than most
Men about controlling my explosions
And I do my best to never
Base decisions off of emotions
With a lifetime full of facts
Learned and disloyalty that burns
It wasn’t a stranger
It was your boy who got
You when your back turned so how can I keep
Stepping without going left?
Gotta channel my aggression
Okay well I guess that I
Just answered my own question
There’s no turning back once it’s done
No stopping time when it’s begun
Work your way through problems when they come
Can’t win the battle if you run
Every day is a trip around the Sun
It’s all the same no matter where you from
Doesn’t matter if you’re old or young
There’s enough blessings for everyone
It ain’t nothing like the power
Of understanding when it comes
I don’t see the world the same that
Way I saw it at 21
I was a fool inside a cesspool
Hope you listening to me nephew
'Cause what I lived was
Predestined to rescue, teach and help you
But truth be told, it’s your choice
What you should do or don’t do
It ain’t my place to force you
You can act however you want to
But just know that there’s a consequence
Every time you break rules
Don’t jump too fast
Always calculate before you make moves
'Cause time is unrewindable
I’m hip to that like no other
I’m tryna lace you up
I made enough mistakes for both of us
And pride will come before the fall
So learn to follow protocol
'Cause most of y’all young people be
Think that you know it all
And every time we lose one
It’s rough but I don’t show the hurt
There's barely time to mourn the loss
I got to mash and go to work
My past actions haunt me
I’ve gotten over 'em partly
Still I wish I could have met somebody
Then who would have taught me
There’s no turning back once it’s done
No stopping time when it’s begun
Work your way through problems when they come
Can’t win the battle if you run
Every day is a trip around the Sun
It’s all the same no matter where you from
Doesn’t matter if you’re old or young
There’s enough blessings for everyone
See me an angel
How that sounding? With lakes
Of guilt I’m drowning
I must be stressing in my sleep because
Most days I wake up frowning
And the task of daily problem
Solving got my temple pounding
And it’s not that I’m so serious I'm
Just tired of all this clowning
I can’t play with you in wartime
'cause you jeopardise what I love
If you a crook, that’s on you
Just don't track your dirt on my rug
See when times between two people cease
It’s best to split go west and east
'Cause separation keeps the peace and you
Don't want that beast released
I've seen homies from school who knew
Me back when I knew you
And I tell ‘em, "yeah
We cool we just don't hang
Out like we used to"
And each word from my mouth’s true
This really ain’t even about you
It’s just that certain things I
Used to be into, i outgrew
Some close calls and barely made-it's
Other incidents rarely stated
Always hated anytime that side
Of me got activated
Still in the process I’m capturing that the
Savage in me I’ma have to attack
‘Cause once it’s on I get
Trapped in the act and
The guilt don't kick in till after the fact
There’s no turning back once it’s done
No stopping time when it’s begun
Work your way through problems when they come
Can’t win the battle if you run
Every day is a trip around the Sun
It’s all the same no matter where you from
Doesn’t matter if you’re old or young
There’s enough blessings for everyone
