flooded by the
day dream lake of temptation
i can not swim
drowning from misunderstanding
standing with my soul
why it feel so abanding
i do not know
but know im go'n try
to improve myself
before i touch that sky
then and if i die
so when i go by
i will glow like gold
but in the sun ill shine

then the stars above
so high-er
then the stars go up
so this drive right here
is accumative of love
and i will not age

Verse 2

stronger then the steal beam frame
that supports the
building that resides
in the city that rejoices me
no matter
what my choices be
they always
lift my voice to the
heavens through the clouds
where the sears tower 'spose to be
six oh six
one nine-er
infactuation lil bit
high-er
northern royalty
im si-yer
we all breathe flame
not fi-re
Damn, shit im spittin
soundin like some revalations
common knowledge to you catz
im steady delegatin
fix ya situation
or youll face obliteration
cause nobody else can
help you in your graduation
from the old you
to a younger generation
dontchu wanna live forever
with no complications
lift your hearts to the sky
with determination
and let your eyez
guide you to a celebration


-Hook-
ima be young
til da sand runs out
living armstrong
yo and thts no doubt
ima keep goin
til dem lights go out
mic cuts off
but im still g'on shout

-Chorus-
That ima live young
foreva!
Young
where ever
Young
what eva! it takes
That ima live young
foreva!
Young

while im tryna pick the locks
on the failsafe
to pull the heist of the century
and get away
and leave dey jaws on drop
as i fade away

keep goin long
ima do it to the fullest
and i aint gon stop

living armstrong
