| I learned when I was growin' up
|
| Sometimes you, sometimes me
|
| Always love
|
| Train hard, now my focus up
|
| Got it all but ain’t had enough
|
| I’m out the shed and the tools brand new
|
| Dear mama dropped them jewels that I never ran through
|
| The most driven never sat up in the back seat
|
| The most forgiven never flagging down a taxi
|
| That’s my word if it’s meant to outgrow
|
| Like I used to run home to catch the last of my show
|
| Some move to the future other’s living it slow
|
| Old tunes trying to find where the memories flow
|
| You know I try to chase ‘em down no dragon
|
| Shit, they shot a Beatle, do people still imagine?
|
| I think the world could be a better place
|
| No fam but I still set a table and I said it’s grace
|
| I think I’ll let you in my life all access
|
| Gift and curses, cursive closed captions
|
| Misinterpreting the passion
|
| Saving face ain’t a game, ain’t a time for retractions
|
| I learned one way then front the opposite
|
| I learned behind the beat, now I learned on top of it
|
| I do go against the grain
|
| I do take bigger pictures that don’t fit in the frame
|
| Dip the scriber in the inkwell
|
| Thoughts sketch a snapshot
|
| Vibrant check the detail, now the family eats well
|
| Used to cut the mold off bricks for grilled cheese melts
|
| Wandering the crumbling castle wondering how the things fell
|
| Mansions and lap pools to sleeping on back pews
|
| Pictures and statues where roaches and rats moved
|
| Faithfully I’ve seen it all alive, and I’m grateful
|
| With Curtis Mayfield singing «Just be Thankful»
|
| Slapping loud out a glasshouse, pearl enamel tooth color
|
| Seasoned old cats then the ragtop, roof covered
|
| Nodded and they nodded back, respect acknowledged
|
| Got a fine arts degree plus the streets are a college
|
| California campus, I’ve studied abroad
|
| Bloodied the canvas, pondering atlas, «what if he shrugged?»
|
| The rich lady asked, «what if we thug?»
|
| Humanity said «I'm feeling drowsy what is the drug?»
|
| Wake the team up, never alone but on my own two
|
| Held the elevator, check the levels that we’ve grown through
|
| Philanthropic maybe cause I did my dirt
|
| There, I’m haunted, honestly I never fronted all is all I ever wanted
|
| Keep an eye on hustlers, watch out for the schemers
|
| No more kid gloves for the dreamers
|
| Awake trying to live dreams physically, energy is extreme
|
| Lessons of infinity are vivid on the big screen |
