Inner Ninja

I read the rules before I broke them

I broke the chains before they choked me out

Now I pay close attention

Really learn the code

I learned to read the map before I hit the road

Hey yo, I know you never heard this before

But I'd rather lose a fight than miss the war

And I ain't wishing competition or fishing for it

I'm just living in the system, conditions are poor

I've been lost in the rhythm and misinformed

Too many late nights hitting the liquor store

Too many bad decisions, half assed attempts

No sweat, no fear, no blood, no tears

I go hard and I ain't making up no excuse

I'm overdue, I don't do what I'm supposed to do

Cause you can think about it man, we're supposed to lose

It ain't all picture perfect, ocean views

No, I was a first class rookie,

Taking out bullies in my all black hoodie

Man of mystery, you know the history

Get it or forget it, cause poof, I'm outta here

I read the rules before I broke 'em

I broke the chains before they choked me out

And I pay close attention

Really learn the code

I learned to read the map before I hit the road

Nobody's gonna see me coming

Nobody's gonna hear a sound

No matter how hard they trying

No stopping me since I've found

My inner ninja

My inner ninja

My inner ninja

My inner ninja

Hey yo, I've been high and I've been real low

I've been beaten and broken but I healed though

So many ups and downs, roughed up & clowned

We all got problems, but we deal though

I'm trying to do better now, find my inner peace

Learn my art form, and find my energy

When my backs on the wall, I don't freeze up

Nah, I find my inner strength and I re-up

Here we go, I know I've never been the

smartest or wisest

But I realize what it takes

Never dwell in the dark cause the sun always rises

But gotta make it to the next day

It's a feeling that you get in your lungs when you run

Like you're running outta air and your breath won't come

And you (uh) wheezing, gotta keep it moving

Find that extra (uhn) and push your way through it

I've had bad habits but I dropped em

I've had opponents but I knocked them out

I climbed the highest mountains

I Swum the coldest seas

There ain't a thing I've faced thats been

too much for me

Nobody's gonna see me coming

Nobody's gonna hear a sound

No matter how hard they trying

Nobody's gonna bring me down

Nobody's gonna see me coming

Nobody's gonna hear a sound

No matter how hard they trying

No stopping me since I've found

My inner ninja

My inner ninja

My inner ninja

My inner ninja

I've had bad habits but I dropped em

I've had opponents but I knocked them out

I climbed the highest mountains

I Swum the coldest seas

There ain't a thing I've faced thats been

too much for me
