🎤THE TIME IS NOW🎤 - An Original Rap Song by @benja x Mojo x Cryjaxx

in #music • 4 years ago (edited)

Back with a new track!

“The Time is Now” is a song about finding the courage to stay on your grind to succeed, no matter what the world around you throws at you. There is no time to regret the past and no room to doubt the future. You know your strengths, nobody can hold you back and no one will take advantage of your grind. It's all on you, you have to make your move and put in the work as preparation will meet opportunity.

The Time Is Now

A few months ago a producer duo by the name of ''Cryjaxx'' hit me and my good friend up to collaborate on one of their new productions. I've worked with them before, liked wat I heared, so I was down to do it. Together with my broseph ''Mojo'', we wrote and recorded the verses for this beat, created the song ''The Time Is Now'' and released it on the 7th of Oktober. We approached the distribution label ''Magic Music'' to officially release the song on all music streaming platforms.

The Time Is Now is doing pretty well on Spotify, and has gained 91K+ streams so far!

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Benja]
(Uh) As of late, fate's knockin' on my door
Been patiently waitin', now it's time to settle the score
Been plannin' to go to war, my hunger's longin' for more
Ready to strike down from a cloud in a thunderstorm
Come up story, been plottin' and warmin' up for glory
Took many losses, karma's got something coming for me
The bigger picture, the higher meaning, the larger plan
Gotta keep believin', ain't no fucking holdin' back
The rebel rumblin' rapidly, battle scars haunt me mentally
Metaphors are the remedy, shoot my shot aimin' steadily
Overcome what's been fed to me, food for thought on a trap release
Who would've thought I would ever be havin' a date with destiny
They act like they don't know whassup
They be watchin' my moves, I be movin' it up a notch
Gunnin' for the top, ain't no way I'ma go back down
Act now, time is runnin', ain't no turnin' back now

[Verse 2: Mojo]
I guess I made it to the top now
Got a lotta people wishing I would trip and fall down
But when you gone realize it's not gonna happen?
I will stay in position and you can bring all your weapons
But you can't bring me down I'm a warrior son
A motherfucking fighter om fire a shogun
Second to no one when it comes to this
And I like to welcome y'all to the dark abyss
Y'all shouldn't mess with me, won't get the best of me
I'm living happily, this how it has to be Manifest destiny, one of the best MC's
Put you to rest with ease
Y'all are just casualties, it's the wild wild west
Guns go boom boom or go pow pow fast
Eyes on the clock as the countdown sets
The time is right now fuck SoundCloud rap

Hope you enjoyed the song, if so, share your thoughts below! You might recognize the melody of the beat aswell ;)
