| Meet me on the runway, runway, runway
|
| Meet me on the runway, runway
|
| Meet me on the runway, runway, runway
|
| It’s time that we soar, it’s time to take off
|
| I was getting claustrophobic, my city get small and them walls is closing
|
| I’m living where them Winters is long and they hearts is frozen
|
| And women with the slenderest forms would start disrobing
|
| I left the Roc and drove into my spot in Lower Brooklyn
|
| No looking back at them, ladies, I was smashing ‘em
|
| Went from chasing ass to chasing dreams and now I’m catching ‘em
|
| I’m not the king of my city, there ain’t no throne, see?
|
| I am like the president, all its residents chose me
|
| I left my home and came with hopes of gaining global fame
|
| Now I’m pulling out all fucking stops, I’m like a local train
|
| Not a lot of opportunity, I’m in the Roc and I gotta apply to Move to B
|
| On top, now the trap on the block where I get locked up for a two to three
|
| Or three to four, that’s what I’m leaving for, I got a dream
|
| And I’m needing more, I gotta be in stores like the dude on shelves
|
| And he moving himself like a Ouija board, hey, and I’m moving fast
|
| Groupies strapped in a blue-green Jag, bend ‘em and I send ‘em
|
| On they way when I’m entering a plane with a Toonie bag
|
| I don’t wanna be the one they talk about
|
| Like he woulda been something if he gotten out
|
| So I bounce and I did what my father did
|
| I left home and I left my scholarship
|
| Never went to colleges and my city never had a lot of jobs to give
|
| And mama didn’t want me in the house to live
|
| So I booked to that Brooklyn apartment, I’mma chase my dreams
|
| Get ‘em into seats and I make them scream
|
| Living and I’m hitting every dique and I’m tripping every week
|
| When they change my sheets, huh? |
| And I’m living like a playboy
|
| With the window tinted on the ‘84, women in the back
|
| And I’m driven by the fact ain’t shit legit that they can hate on
|
| Upstate by my idol, ain’t nobody taking the title
|
| So I bounce, I don’t wanna be around ‘em, pedaling an ounce
|
| For the sake of survival so I stand with my hand on the Bible
|
| Fam on my side and I feel too strong, people only mad
|
| ‘Cause they want what I have but they can’t so they can’t move on
|
| And the plane touch down when I’m in the terminal in my town
|
| Then I get determined to make you proud when they heard
|
| That the earner is back around, all I have’s a day
|
| Then they know I gotta go back away but I fare thee well
|
| Spinning like a carousel when I’m sitting on the baggage claim |
