Extraordinary
Lyrics
I always keep it hot and keep that drip just like it's tropical
Don't try to tell me what I cannot do or what's impossible
Cuz I'm a Christian white boy from the burbs and rap ain't logical for me
But I'ma go until you see that what's improbable can be
Your opportunity to see with a new optical experience
In which you come to understand the optimal appearances
Can be a bit deceiving and the color of a lyricist
Or where he's from don't make or break the lyrics
It's a common misconception that you've gotta live your life inside the box
That they designed to try to understand your thoughts
And it gets hard to leave at all when people take up throwing rocks
Because you're different and they register those differences as flaws
You have to ask yourself if you would rather take the hits
Or if you'd rather let it go and try to keep up with them kids
Just know that you can't light the way unless you burn a couple wicks
And no matter which way you go it ain't always gonna be bliss
Would you rather be accepted or extraordinary?
Would you rather have approval or respect?
People give up what they've got in hopes that they will be included
Til they figure out it's not what they expect
Would you rather be exceptional or ordinary?
Would you rather be a member or the best?
If you love it and you're good at it
You probably shouldn't quit it cuz they really only hate when they're impressed
I told Screwtape get out my way
I got way too much on my plate
I don't need you up in my face
I don't need you upping the stakes
You got way too much in your wake
Cuz you don't do nothing but take
But you'll never smother my faith
I came for the game I'ma play
It's sad to see these people they don't play it for the love
They're just smothering the talents they've been given from above
They're afraid of being different cuz the higher path is rough
But they don't know what they're doing don't know what they're giving up
The road to heaven's never been an easy one to travel
You'll notice as the repercussions of your choice unravel
The wider one is paved but the narrow one is gravel
Everybody starts to judge but they don't really have the gavel
The question that you have to ask is would you rather take it
Enduring all the hits and hoping that one day you make it
Take your gift and let it grow and hope that you don't break it
Take the narrow road and pray that you can help to pave it
Would you rather be accepted or extraordinary?
Would you rather have approval or respect?
People give up what they've got in hopes that they will be included
Til they figure out it's not what they expect
Would you rather be exceptional or ordinary?
Would you rather be a member or the best?
If you love it and you're good at it
You probably shouldn't quit it cuz they really only hate when they're impressed
Would you rather be accepted or extraordinary?
Would you rather have approval or respect?
People give up what they've got in hopes that they will be included
Til they figure out it's not what they expect
Would you rather be exceptional or ordinary?
Would you rather be a member or the best?
