Hook:
Ay ball out, go and get your blessing
I know the stars out, but I’m working while you resting
I just can’t live without progression
I just can’t live it doubting, stressing
Cause I feel that I was destined
So I’m now investing
All my hours pressing
Pressing the issue
Hoping messages get through
Dodging the truth, eventually blessings will miss you
V1:
I hear it’s a masterpiece, I heard he finally wrote it
They listen as I speak cause all the lines will be quoted
Got the heart of a lion and the mind of a poet
It’s part of the climb, came by design like I sewed it
But can’t be fixed with the stitches
I’m in the mix getting riches
As a younging I dreamt of whipping a six hitting switches
Now the only switch I hit is the one to cut to light on
Back then having a pad meant having something to write on
Now having a pad means a place to call my own
Filling the sheet with numbers, got it looking like the Dow Jones
Been carrying beef like I'm brought a cow home
Now I hear offers instead of busy lines and dial tones
Hook:
Ay ball out, go and get your blessing

All my hours pressing
Pressing the issue
Hoping messages get through

V2:
Blessings will miss you and won’t comeback like a boomerang
They love to spite me, try to bite me like they grew some fangs
Niggas be dropping dimes like they losing change
Could never do the same, no wonder why your crew estranged
My clique together ‘til we 6 feet like the room arranged
In quarantine
I been grinding
Putting my mind in-
To my craft so one day I can reward the team
Shelter has been ordered, this the type of vibe that boredom brings
(I)
Made the sun shine through the storm
Started off rehearsing lines in my uniform
Listening to De La Soul
Never thought I’d see the day I blow, without having to use a horn

V3:
Every morning I contemplate to walk into my job and quit
Running through the halls in a mask like I was robbing shit
It’s time for me to reap all the rewards that my hobby gets
Still pressing my issue and I think it’s time I lobby it
Trying to walk into the shmoney, feeling like I’m Bobby Bitch
Out here catching plays like my niggas out here lobbing shit
Been through so much pain but I swear that I ain’t sob a bit
Shawty see ‘em on my wang, and now she trying gobble it
Stop the shit
I ain’t tripping over a forgotten diss
It’s obvious
Trill stored in your memory with no floppy disk
Optimist
Trying to hit the goal just like a hockey disc
Forever shining like the diamonds that’s sitting on top the wrist
I mean like
We done been through so much over the years
But we ain't shed no tears
Might've ran from some fears but
We ain't running from no blessings
Feel me
