(Still dreaming)
16 When i first dropped out of school
I ain't care about no collage but i swear i ain't no fool (Ooo)
I got different dreams things i wanna do
But my pops said you gon get a job so don't you think its cool (Ooo)
In a music store fixing up cd's
Used to put'm on a shelf thinking one day this gon be me (Eee)
Making promises like one day they gon see (Eee)
I swear i'ma be somebody before the day i D-I-E
But my reality would tell me otherwise
I see roaches in the sink whenever i turn on the lights
Since a young'n man i always had to fight
Some battles that were physical but most were deep inside
Money comes and goes
Switching up my goals
Had to hit the road
Oh yeah!
Had to hit the feet
I don't ever speak
I just let it be
Oh yeah!
I been on a mission
You been out here tripping
You don't ever listen
Oh yeah!
If i talk about it
Then i been about it
Even if you doubt it
Oh yeah!
But i ain't tripping baby i just take it slow
Learn from all my struggles that's the way the story goes
I got no wishes like its 16 candles
All i know is God won't give me more than i can handle!
I know sometimes i be stressing then i count all my blessings
I be doing the most (I be doing the most)
Thats why i be in my section asking God for direction
What i pray for the most (Thats what i pray for the most)
I know sometimes i be stressing then i count all my blessings
I be doing the most (I be doing the most)
Thats why i be in my section asking God for direction
What i pray for the most (Thats what i pray for the most)
Smooth killa when i rhyme like that
I be killing flows but i give life back
So far gone but I'm on the right track
I ain't playing no games i ain't falling for no traps
Calm cool collective
I open my perspective
And got so many issues i forget to count my blessings
Or maybe its a blessing when my issues turn to lessons (Lessons)
I do too much stressing
Always worried bout perfection (Perfection)
Its a war going on outside praying for protection
I just wanna go to heaven all you wanna do is flex it (Flex it)
V-I-P section live wild act reckless!
I ain't tryna judge i'm just saying what's the next shift?
Cause lately i've been trying to divide
The difference between not judging and making a compromise
Like is a liar still a liar if they don't always lie?
Like will i make it into heaven if at least i try!
I don't wanna die but i wanna fly
Back stroke on the clouds way up in the sky
And i don't wanna live so mediocre
I want to bust shots no super soaker
And what i mean is i want to make a real mark
I want to be a night light in the dark
Or maybe like a bright light in the park
Something like a dog bite no bark
When the storm comes i want to be a noahs ark
I want to be a difference
The aroma in the air like a incense
Learn how to let go cause i been tense
If i want to make a change then i gotta change
How can i evolve if i stay the same!
Cause anything that fails to evolve extinct's
And i can't only chase these dreams like a drink
Tryna row
In a boat
With a hole
When it sinks
Thinking like if i ain't pay attention to it then it wouldn't happen man
I really got to rearrange the way i think!
But i ain't tripping baby i just take it slow
Learn from all my struggles that's the way the story goes
I got no wishes like its 16 candles
All i know is God won't give me more than i can handle
