lyrics

The system labeled me a glitch in its grand game of life
Had to learn my eclectic edge is my strength, not a source of strife

I am more than my trauma and test scores
Was sent to principals office, classified a disruptor
Now CEOs pay me to bring disruption to the whole org… matured

I’ve learned… the game’s biggest rejections are direction if you let it
I’m another black diamond neglected
Shining because I let the pressure and fire perfect me

I’m done being limited to what they expect of me

I’m mentally poignant spiritually buoyant
Heaven rejoicing, survived poisons, Free!
Whipping the chariot feeling like Harriet my boys with me

That spot on top got our name on it
My team here, we prepared and we prayed for it
Oh you opposing?! Game on!
You ain’t know? I’m Johnny Storm when I Flame on

Fam dodging that grim reaper
I’m absolutely my bros keeper
At COSI VR teaching
Take that to I-High Weekly
Black genius harvest season
Legacy is making sure my fam eatin

Game on!

If you destined for greatness, this your theme song
We the type don’t have to flex to let you know the team strong
That spot up top got our name on it
My team here, we laced up, GAME ON

“This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal.”
