They gon' try to take your dreams from you, and I say
Don't, let 'em, no
Don't let 'em, go
They gon' try to take your dreams from you, and I say'
Don't, let 'em, go
Don't let 'em, no
Don't let em tell you, you ain't wonderful I know you are
Don't let the world dim your shine you're a star
Believe in you, you gotta
Move through a lotta things
Do a lotta things
Who am I to, blame
When I know that they can't handle the fact that
You're from the same place and they're
Still in the same place
Man, I'm done with that
Start movin' a little, they treat you different, that's f*cked up
Had hope for some people, ain't seen 'em do shit, and that's f*cked up
But that's just the way that it is, tough luck
At least they all say so,
Ain't no where near where I wanna be yet
But I'm proud as hell that I ain't where I once was
Lost myself for a minute had to dig it out the mud though
I got people around me, I love 'em to death, and I'm grateful for that
Here's a reminder to me, everybody gets lonely, ain't no money changing that
I'm still a kid with dream had to face that
I see a red door mama
And I wanna paint it black
Ain't nobody changin' that
The life of a rolling stone
Say that I'm dope they don't even really know what I'm on
By the time that they really start feelin' me
I'll already be gone
Don't know what kinda John I'm on
They gon' try to take your dreams from you, and I say
Don't, let 'em, no
Don't let 'em, go
They gon' try to take your dreams from you, and I say
Don't, let 'em, go
Don't let 'em, no
Collateral damage is flammable like kerosine
My energy is tangible, you'd know that just by meetin' me
Who you are is who you're free to be
And i, got it on lock so I threw away the key
(HUH)
Straight from the muh f*ckin' dungeon
Beat my chest in the concrete jungle
Don't catch cold feet in the struggle
Show me, bloody knuckles
No sleep, only hustle
Sippin' on bubbla
Double it, run it up
Had me a couple a stumbles
But cousin I'm up
I'm in love w the process, and you just don't want it enough
They gon' try to take your dreams from you, and I say
Don't, let 'em, no
Don't let 'em, go
They gon' try to take your dreams from you, and I say
Don't, let 'em, go
Don't let 'em, no
Hold up wait a minute I'm feelin' myself
No one here to pick it up, I'll lift it myself
I be fresh as hell
Paper route, paper trail
And I'm like hey
You can say whatever you'd like, stay the hell up out my way, ok
What ever back freckle, put the hate behind me
I'm on a whole different level, and you should fold like origami
Homie
I be makin' noise w my me hoy minoy's
Saturday I'm crackin' cold ones with the boys
Slicker than lickety-spilt when I spit my shit
Slow it down so the vibes lit
Whatdda ya doin all the way over there?
I don't know, lookin' for people to vibe with
Spend a bit of my time with
I be on my divine shit
Build it once i Design it
Grind it out till I'm shinin'
They gon' try to take your dreams from you, and I say
Don't, let 'em, no
Don't let 'em, go
They gon' try to take your dreams from you, and I say
Don't, let 'em, go
Don't let 'em, no
