All a youngin' ever wanted was to write rhymes
And shine bright in the night sky
Sixteen dreamin' vigorous schemes
So I get on my knees prayin' that i'll make it at the right time
'Cuz man life's been a trip off the pavement
Get lost then friends all get ticked off and angry
Shit ain't even fair they be sayin' that they care
That you'll make it through the years
When they really think you ain't shit
But you can't spell life without a lie
You can win this race if ya eye is on the prize
Put my soul up on a track shit is over it's a wrap
Kids are hopin' that I crash but I'm colder than a draft
Tryna help my mom from gettin' weary
I know life's rough as single parent
'Cuz since dad died man shit got clueless
Gave up controlling my dreams shit's not lucid
But shit I'd rather be kickin' rocks than pushin' em
The chance for takin over the atlas is lookin' thin
No regrets cuz you can't switch worlds
Wish I didn't Waste time tryna chase this girl
But fuck love we don't need that shit
Roll it up homie take three fat hits
Yeah I'm lookin' happy and all
But thats When the camera's on
Damn I really needa Gather my thoughts
'Cuz shit happens
Get with it or get it lost
Better watch ya mind or that shit'll just drift off
Where I'm from the kids don't get recognized
But we the best to grind
So I know that we the next to shine
Now it seem the water up to my knees
Homies couldn't get jobs now they hustlin' trees
I see ignorance is lookin' like it hit the main street
But the mainstream can't fuck with this man's dream
And shine bright in the night sky
Sixteen dreamin' vigorous schemes
So I get on my knees prayin' that i'll make it at the right time
'Cuz man life's been a trip off the pavement
Get lost then friends all get ticked off and angry
Shit ain't even fair they be sayin' that they care
That you'll make it through the years
When they really think you ain't shit
But you can't spell life without a lie
You can win this race if ya eye is on the prize
Put my soul up on a track shit is over it's a wrap
