00:00:28.366 --> 00:00:30.400
I'm fortunate to be alive
00:00:30.500 --> 00:00:32.133
Can't explain how I got here
00:00:32.233 --> 00:00:33.100
But we've arrived
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:34.533
The deliverance
and diligence
00:00:34.633 --> 00:00:35.533
For which we strive
00:00:35.633 --> 00:00:36.766
Is the feeling,
there's no ceiling
00:00:37.066 --> 00:00:38.366
Is when we rise
00:00:38.466 --> 00:00:40.300
Fortunate to have friends
who don't synthesize
00:00:40.400 --> 00:00:41.666
I keep good company
00:00:41.766 --> 00:00:43.166
We enterprise
00:00:43.266 --> 00:00:45.366
Had a strong gaze
since infant eyes
00:00:45.466 --> 00:00:47.666
I guess I can see the
power in the prize
00:00:47.766 --> 00:00:50.666
Incentivized by the streets
I identified
00:00:50.766 --> 00:00:51.733
Other people's struggles
00:00:52.033 --> 00:00:53.300
I don't minimize
00:00:53.400 --> 00:00:55.300
Fortunate to be born and
raised in the chi
00:00:55.400 --> 00:00:56.400
Salt of the earth
00:00:56.500 --> 00:00:58.066
People with the bravest eye
00:00:58.166 --> 00:00:59.166
They say your god is truth
00:00:59.266 --> 00:01:00.333
I wasn't raised to lie
00:01:00.433 --> 00:01:02.766
Fortunate to be so que sera
00:01:03.066 --> 00:01:04.233
Every day that I get up
00:01:04.333 --> 00:01:05.366
I trace the sky
00:01:05.466 --> 00:01:06.733
And draw with the most high
00:01:07.033 --> 00:01:07.766
On the place that I
00:01:08.066 --> 00:01:09.233
Am
00:01:09.333 --> 00:01:09.700
And that's fortunate
(fortunate)
00:01:13.066 --> 00:01:14.066
(Fortunate)
00:01:18.066 --> 00:01:19.366
(Fortunate)
00:01:23.133 --> 00:01:24.266
(Fortunate)
00:01:28.433 --> 00:01:30.300
(Fortunate) fortunate for
the breath of life
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:31.700
And the breath of the lord
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:33.033
Through reverend wright
00:01:33.133 --> 00:01:36.200
Fortunate in my house ain't
a desperate wife
00:01:36.300 --> 00:01:38.100
I studied life
so I can test the mic
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:39.566
The laboratory
of a rapper's story
00:01:39.666 --> 00:01:41.700
From the alley
to the allegory
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.000
I pour rhyme in the time
00:01:43.100 --> 00:01:44.333
Let it travel from me
00:01:44.433 --> 00:01:46.633
The war with self is the
biggest battle for me
00:01:46.733 --> 00:01:49.066
Fortunate when I was twelve
I let rap allure me
00:01:49.166 --> 00:01:52.233
Fortunate through the wilderness
I see the trees
00:01:52.333 --> 00:01:54.266
In the forest there's a
lot of fallen mc's
00:01:54.366 --> 00:01:56.333
Fortunate that the god
shared the lessons
00:01:56.433 --> 00:01:57.333
He returned to the essence
00:01:57.433 --> 00:01:59.300
I still feel his presence
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:01.300
Most of my brethren
are from '87
00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:02.433
Childhood friends
00:02:02.533 --> 00:02:04.300
I'm glad that I kept them
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:06.366
Fortunate for the wisdom
of the elders
00:02:06.466 --> 00:02:08.066
And my grandmother
and mother's love
00:02:08.166 --> 00:02:09.066
That never failed us
00:02:09.166 --> 00:02:09.733
I'm fortunate
00:02:13.200 --> 00:02:14.700
(Fortunate)
00:02:18.166 --> 00:02:19.600
(Fortunate)
00:02:22.666 --> 00:02:24.433
(Fortunate)
00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:29.400
(Fortunate)
00:02:29.500 --> 00:02:31.733
Fortunate I was raised around my uncle
steve and my uncle charles
00:02:32.033 --> 00:02:33.166
They both told me
believe
00:02:33.266 --> 00:02:35.300
The seeds of a revolutionary
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:37.500
Evolution's very
necessary
00:02:37.600 --> 00:02:39.400
To become fruits and berries
of our labor
00:02:39.500 --> 00:02:41.600
Told to search for a savior
