Lyrics
City lights in the back mirror
City lights in the rearview mirror
Tinted windows, clair obscur
Tinted windows, contrasting light and shadow
LED shine from a black bimmer
LED lights shining from a black luxury car
Sun set quick, but get up slow
Day ends quickly, but mornings are slow to start
It passes you by in the blink of an eye
Life passes swiftly
When you run out of fuel, the tires don't roll
Struggling when resources are depleted
Pull up to the station, take out the keys
Stopping at the gas station, a metaphor for rejuvenation
Wake up reborn, ride and repeat, that ain't for me
Rejecting a repetitive and unfulfilling cycle
Every day is another chance to get up and do better
Every day is an opportunity for self-improvement
It's in the way you're unafraid to change and develop
Fearlessly embracing change and growth
5th gear, when I'm switching lanes, blinding lights, I don't see a brake
Speeding through life, ignoring obstacles
Top tier, I ain't playing games, when it's night I'mma stay awake
Commitment to excellence, staying active at night
Till I can sleep with nothing to achieve
Persistence until goals are accomplished
Till I can sleep with no dreams
Aiming for a peaceful rest without aspirations
Moved in the shadows for too long now
Remaining unnoticed or hidden for too long
Patience is a virtue, time to step out
Understanding the value of patience
I was staring at the canvas 'till the paint dried
Observing life until the moment is right to act
Now I'm like Miyagi with his bonsai
Reference to mastering skills like Mr. Miyagi
Saw a fraction of the light, had to claim it, it was right
Claiming opportunities when they arise
Photosynthesis kinda vibe, save through the day and burn the night
Metaphor for absorbing energy, thriving at night
I said it's my time to shine, can't have dreams the day I die
Declaring one's time to succeed
Darkness showed me how to fight, told my momma we will be alright
Learning from dark times, ensuring reassurance
Every day is another chance to get up and do better
Reiteration of the daily chance for improvement
It's in the way you're unafraid to change and develop
Continued emphasis on embracing change
5th gear, when I'm switching lanes, blinding lights, I don't see a brake
Persistently moving forward despite challenges
Top tier, I ain't playing games, when it's night I'mma stay awake
Commitment to excellence during nighttime
Till I can sleep with nothing to achieve
Striving until accomplishments yield peace
Till I can sleep with no dreams
Aiming for a restful sleep without aspirations
