about

We’ve all heard the phrase “There’s no “I” in TEAM, but there is “I” in WIN”. I thought it would be a cool play on the phrase if I made it about remaining focused as the theme of the album is about remaining focused. “See it, think it, then do it / Concept then reality, show and prove it…” The go-getter in me is always trying to find ways to win. My eyes on the prize. Eyeing the trophy, eyeing the win. There you have it…”Eyein’ win”.

lyrics

Yaya yo yo yo
Yaya yo yo yo
Yaya yo yo yo
I heard it through the grapevine that there's no I in TEAM
But there's EYE in win
Got my eyes on the prize 'cause I'm trying to win

I heard it through the grapevine there's no I in team
But between I and me I put T.I.M.E
Into making my reality clear as I can see
Visions of what the end game and my prize should be
The grind is relentless
Going through the trenches I take shots like defenses
Then regroup, gather my bearings then turn into offense
Counterattack turn back pedaling into conquests
The take over, ain't no stopping the rain I'm saying
Like falling water pellets massaging my brain
Wipe the mist from my eyes so that I can see clear
Recalibrate my navigation of this path that I steer
I'm in the here and now with sights set on the finish line
See to completion before my heart hits quitting time
No I in team but eye in winning
My I's dotted plotting a rise from the beginning

My eyes on the prize so I'm being focused
I rise when it's time, part of being the dopest
Multiply over divide no point of being a quotient
Recognize the eye and I when I reach the slope
Some folks hoard all perceived credit
Individual acclaim as opposed to team effort
Eyein' win but there's no I in team
It's a mirage your eyes should see when designing a scheme

Yo, see it, think it then do it
Concept then reality show and prove it
Go back to the drawing board and improve it
Set a trend, start a community then a movement
That's the blueprint I'm establishing now
Had a vision to build it with this style of rapping I vowed
To make supporters of Es proud to be myself and I found
That I could entertain a crowd with these thoughts that I sound
Over the smooth rhythms, true and living the emcee
My name's Es, new inventions reflect me
The silver lining is aligning in my eye view
Refractive index deciding what my eyes can view
What I'm seeing is my prize on the horizon
Stick to the vision, it will arrive in due timing
There's I in win since I eyed the win
Remain focused and if I fail, then I try again

My eyes on the prize so I'm being focused
I rise when it's time, part of being the dopest
Multiply over divide no point of being a quotient
Recognize the eye and I when I reach the slope
Some folks hoard all perceived credit
Individual acclaim as opposed to team effort
Eyein' win but there's no I in team
It's a mirage your eyes should see when designing a scheme
