Risk It All

(专辑： Love & Rockets Vol. 2: The Declaration - 2020)

Alright, you don't like the fact that I eat
[?]

What you willing to give to live how you wanna live
To take care of your kids, to get that baller ass crib
Sacrifice ain't easy but it is necessary if you wanna take the next step
If you wanna live free and be a success
Take the focus off of having fun
Use the power of your mind like the Magic one
When you focus though, your energy'll flow
And I ain't scared, I'ma tell you what you need to know
To pro, to show the world what you made of
And as you rise keep your eyes on the fake love
Cause it ain't love and it ain't real
It's temporary like a motherfucking pain pill
And they don't last bro cash, lo-cash
And it gets being envious of what they don't have

And I'm so glad that I took the chance
Cause if you don't take the risk then you going in vain
And I'm so glad that I took the chance
Cause if you don't take the risk then you going in vain

Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
I play the game for keeps, I ain't the same as y'all
Yeah
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
And I'ma always take the leap, I ain't afraid to fall (Play ball)

My life wasn't always on course
Of course I had to get my ass up off the porch
I was smoking on the Ports sipping on imports
Watch my homies going in an out of court
The homie E was a force on the core
Until he got shot and cut his hoop dream short
And now I carry the torch
I had to make him proud get my raps in the Source
God, and I was devastated but I never hesitated
Had to live my dream for all the peeps who never made it
Cause yeah, we was beginners
In the hood no Five Percenters
The red and blue bandanas is all we had to represent us

That's my tribe though, and that's my vibe, bro
In the streets the only beef is the 5-O
That's my tribe though, and that's my vibe, bro
Let's stop the killing so the children could survive though

Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
I play the game for keeps, I ain't the same as y'all
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
Risk it all, risk it all, play ball (Play ball)
And I'ma always take the leap, I ain't afraid to fall (Play ball)

Murs, are you a millionaire?
No
There's a line on the album where you say "My assets are raw, I worth couple mil"
And it's the first time I've actually had a rememory of you quantifying things in that way, ever
And I, it wasn't a shocking thing because you are the hardest working artist I know
I mean, is this your third project this year?
I'm not sure
I know you got some things coming at the end of this year
Now we had the concept for a show called "Debate-down" and I wanted you to be a part of and you shared with me how focused you are right now on music
When I think about your history, I don't know if there's a record label that I could think of, or a level of industry that you haven't been a part of, or that you haven't made better
You are constantly on tour and you have uhm
A different approach to life, you adopted kids
You had room in your life and, and in your heart to bring to make your family bigger, make other people's lives better
And so to me I thought it was very interesting when you dropped that line alluding to that
Because it because it makes sense to me
And I think that these are the kind of things that the Universe provides to people who are making other people's lives better
And I think these are the kind of blessings that people get when they're living righteously
Man, [?], I'm I'm doing okay
