It’s Time To Take A Shot!

I’m not throwing away my shot
I’m not throwing away my shot,
I’m just like the city I’m scrappy and I’m gritty
and I’m not throwing away my shot.   I’ve made bad choices I’ve made mistakes,
I wish that night that I had used the brakes.
For 2 long years I was in a bad place
but I came back for things you can’t replace.
That’s right! I’m talking bout family
Lucas, Emma, and Felicity.
And then I went out and found my crew
And If you mess with them I’m gonna mess with you.
  I had a bright future at Karma U.
But they kicked me out just for telling the truth.
I was going to be Dr Dee LeStrange.
But they just laughed at me and now my life has changed
Now I got me a store with lots of cool antiques.
I got a great ass and I’m so unique
So grab a cup of coffee come on a trip with me
you know how I roll, chaotically.
  The chattering voices in the back of my brain
making me insane and causing me pain
who is Mary Jane? All I got is the name, Alexandra! What does that mean
But when I am on a job everything‘s all right.
When I got a target lock in my site.
Now I know who I’m after, who did this to me.
What will I do, you’ll have to wait and see
  I’m not throwing away my shot
I’m not throwing away my shot,
I’m just like the city I’m scrappy and I’m gritty
and I’m not throwing away my shot.   Like a blue streak of light I fell out of the sky
and the old lady found me she thought I might die
so she thought she might try this gold liquidy stuff
now I’m back in the fight and I’m fast and I’m tough.
But enough is enough why is this taking so long.
Let’s go down the tunnel go to the end of the song.
But maybe I’m wrong maybe I’m moving too fast
but I’m having a blast I never think of the past.
The futures the past, what’s it all mean
this Kit needs a Kat, this all feels like a dream
And I know I just..
I gotta find love… gotta find love
  I found love once but this ain’t a happy song.
He went to the river and now he’s gone.
Maybe when I die I can be his wife.
But I got things to do before the afterlife
So contrary to my family history.
I am trying to clean up the city make it a place you can be.
Who you want to be but I’m starting to see
it’s time to tear down the patriarchy
cause I’m the E-X-C-A-L-I-B, U - R
the one crushed under me.
Cause I’m the queen, you’re just a butterfly.
I’m going to bring you down before I die.
  I’m not throwing away my shot
I’m not throwing away my shot,
I’m just like the city I’m scrappy and I’m gritty
and I’m not throwing away my shot.     I pull it all together I’m called the MC
Like birds of a feather you all flock to me
I am the danger, I ‘m the plot twist
I like you giving you things you cannot resist
  HEY FRANCIS! You’re not supposed to see your niece
But she got Mad Skills that you can see
But she’s with a bad crew could use some help from you
But when sis finds out, what’s she gonna do?
  EUGENIA! You got a house to save
But the old ladys taking it to her grave
And even if you get the vote to go your way
What’s that gonna do at the end of the day?
  MORA i told you the man that did this to you
But he’s practically family with one of your crew
So you gonna put that bullet right in his head?
But will that give you the answer to why your dead?
  KIT! Your boyfriends blind as a bat
He can’t seem to tell a Kit from a Kat
You try to give him a blue pill to open his eyes
But he’s rather be in the dark, and safe…. SURPRISE!
  DEE! You’re your own worst enemy
And every time I get bored I just give you another Dee!
You write your own story it’s kind of insane
I just sit back and let the chaos reign
  I’m not throwing away my shot
I’m not throwing away my shot,
I’m just like the city I’m scrappy and I’m gritty
and I’m not throwing away my shot.
  You see it all distracts you from the danger at hand
You see the city is dying it’s all part of the plan
I’m sure you’ll figure it out, but will it be too late?
But WAIT!
  What about this stanger in Black
He’s writing his own story behind my back
But his diction it lacks
Cause all his fiction is facts
So lets all sit back and just enjoy the laugh
  When I cam to this city I was just 18
I was going to college to follow a dream
But that dream died when I saw the truth
And truth hurts...now it’s time to go to work
You see the city hides things, things in the mist
Conspiracy’s and lies, I could give you a list
But I can’t solve the problems with my fist
So I guess I gotta use my words
  Come on lets rise up (power to the people)
Rise up (everybody equal)
Rise up (don’t believe the lies)
Rise up (cause it must be aliens in disguise)
  I’m not throwing away my shot
I’m not throwing away my shot,
I’m just like the city I’m scrappy and I’m gritty
and I’m not throwing Not throwing away my shot.
