Out of Reach Video (MV)

I grew up with smoke in my mirrors, that's just how it happened to be
My momma been runnin' the business, now I got my hands on the key
She said when you walk in the game, to always practice what you preach
And now it's been twenty four years, and nothin' been out of my reach
My father been workin' for years, said he always wanted to teach
But he always been there for this family, that's how he taught it to me
Part of me came from the Bible, part of me came from the streets
And now it's been twenty four years, and nothin' been out of my reach
And I can see them beacons shinin' in that distant
But just know that's not my limit
I could be there in an instant
And I can feel them beacons burning in my past
Like it's lit into my mast
Cameras flash and as they ask I tell em'

I need the world in my hands, I need them VVS diamonds to dance
For those of you needin' a fix, I heat the spoon up like Alakazam
I feel like Dexter, it's back to the lab
You Dodo you Dee Dee, you holdin' me back
I know that you see these colonial packs, D'Angelo Russell with T-Wolves in fact
I've seen the devil in cloaks, I felt it, it comes and it goes
Y'all talk about murder she wrote but none of y'all Edgar or Allen or Poe
Me I just rap for aesthetics, I roll up like one armadillo a second
I said what I meant and I meant what I said
And they say that I'm black and I'm kinda offended
I'm white to the bone, like white on my bones
Like hittin' some bleach on your Louis V clothes
I'm rappin' till' I could put white on a Rolls
I'm white like my driveway's a mile at home
Wow wow, bling bling
I's the first kid at school wearing sterling
And, wow wow it's a sure thing got a lot of bars all gold like I'm Persian

I grew up with smoke in my mirrors, that's just how it happened to be
My momma been runnin' the business, now I got my hands on the key
She said when you walk in the game, to always practice what you preach
And now it's been twenty four years, and nothin' been out of my reach

Part of me came from the Bible, part of me came from the streets
And now it's been twenty four years, and nothin' been out of my reach
And I can see them beacons shinin' in the distant
But just know that's not my limit
I could be there in an instant
And I can feel them beacons burning in my past
Like it's lit into my mast
Cameras flash and as they ask I tell em'

My only hope is that no one can figure me
Out and about I got gold in the limousine
Hop in the back and it's no one that's filming me
That's cause she know bout' the route
Know how to handle the clout
Know how to spot in my soul
All this was holding me down
Careful who saying who plug who, we don't need snitchin' around
Y'all need a dollar amount but
Y'all don't got friends you could count
Something of value to me, I call that word of mouth like
Who talkin' big when I'm out and
Why'd I see my man in jail then
Go and break a thirty down
I measured and leveled my head
I thought the treasure lay over the hedge, now I know
It's a treasure that's marked with a X kinda gold
I need bread, I need spread I need portion control
You could bet that you dead, you a corpse in my dome
But that's charity work for less fortunate folk
Cost a fortune to copy a horrible flow
But the kid showing up and he torturing most
Grew up I'm torturing folks

I grew up with smoke in my mirrors, that's just how it happened to be
My momma been runnin' the business, now I got my hands on the key
