[Verse 1]
What is up? Yes I’m talking to these blue skies
When you live in a city of Red, those in Blue die
Destined to win, call me that lucky number seven
Looking up at these clouds, sayin I gotta get into heaven
But I’m a born sinner, no good within
A child of the Lord but we are no longer kin
So I guess I’m with the Devil and it’s time for you to pay
On my Kevin Hart, so you gone learn today
So sit back, pay attention to my lessons
I’m telling you what not to do, call this my confessions
I messed up. bumped my head, inside of this girl, who was my friend
Ain’t gone lie, thats a messed way for friendship to end
Here I am, right here, this is me
This is not the way I thought I would end up you see
By now I thought I’d know what the hell I was doing
Sadly in life there is no cure for simply losing
[Verse 2]
Next verse is for my haters, those who motivate
Me to become nothing less than great
They say he suck, that dude ain’t ever gone blow
You can talk but I’mma still get it in, Tebow
Now set your TiVo for when I bust up on the screen
Figueroa’s going to be the name that will ring
In your ear, it’ll be the last thing you hear
Especially if 2012 is our final year
If it is oh well, live with no regrets
You want the realest, this is as real as it gets
I’m the best, straight impossible to beat
While I’m winning you just keep falling short, Miami Heat
As I smell that ocean breeze it just puts my mind at ease
Bringing me down to a state of mental peace
The wind blowing through my hair, damn that feels good
Got me dreaming of days I can get up out the hood
[Verse 3]
Now listen to me, as I deliver these rhymes
I’m runnin out of lines but this beat is runnin out of time
My mind, wants nothing less than a win
So let’s see if we can fit another 16 in
Can I do it? Yes I can. Can I do it? Well damn
Let’s just see, how this game plays out
And I stayed out like I’m locked out, Dwight Howard boxed out
Switch the game up, Yeezy pace, bust the Roc out
An MC like Rakim, but I’m just getting started
When I burst up on the scene y’all seen a kid broken hearted
And I’m still broken, but I’m slowly fixing myself
Beating myself down, living in my mental hell
Of everything I’ve lost, I miss my mind the most
I walk around and feel like nobody can see me, ghost
But they can, but they don’t see what I want em to
They see what others are telling them and none of thats the damn truth
Defeat: the only thing I will not accept
Even if it’s inevitable still I shall not digress
From my progression as I’m headed to the top
One way street, no sir, I won’t stop
Until I am the best, legendary, Kobe
Quit looking at me weird, quit acting like you know me
Because you don’t, hell I don’t even know myself
That don’t make me special, makes me like everybody else
I’ve seen some lovely things but you’re the loveliest I’ve seen
I wish I could ignore you, like you ignore me
I need you? Nah, that ain’t true
Standing alone is better than standing with the people who hurt you
“It’s always my fault” that's what I’m lead to believe
It’s not your fault? Something I just can’t conceive
Was it fun, for you to watch me fall apart?
I’ve been looking to these Blue Skies from the very start
And my heart, it keeps beating
Staring at these mental wounds, they keep bleeding
My life, it’s filled with all these failed tries
What is up? Yes I’m talking to these blue skies
What is up? Yes I’m talking to these blue skies
When you live in a city of Red, those in Blue die
