[Intro]
A wise man once told me that..
To catch greatness You must.. chase after it you know?
So I've really been busting my a** trying to get this mixtape finish for y'all
Living life to the fullest..
And not forgetting where I came from..
This is for y'all
[Verse 1]
So Royal so noble I'm just tryna go global
Eating coastal, like I'm posed to
Tryna be a mogul
See ever since nine three I've been bred to be an emcee
But believe me when they see me
All they think of me is envy
Damn, so I pray for all the blessings that's stressing compressing
For me to start second guessing
I guess that it's a lesson for me to lessen my essence cause I shine luminescence
Whenever blessed within my presence
I might be hot now but the mainstream gon reject it
Not a master in my craft but just wait until I perfect it
Not used to finish second but soon I'll be a legend
So I'm riding the waves of life until they cast me off to heaven
So I reckon I'll claim the game without even a question
Ever since an adolescent I've been fighting this great depression
To live my life and strive there is one thing I had to know
You gotta let go of the past
If you ever expect to grow
So I picture this perfect picture a mixture in this elixir
Of every dope artist to ever appear upon a mixer
The author of my life
Now I'm writing my own scriptures
But who am I to judge
Everyone of us is sinners
They say good things come
To those who have the patience
Never complacent
To my amazement so I rise to the occasion
Not trying to seem too eager
So I'll keep blowing on this reefer
I hope they acknowledge the knowledge
Cause y'all know they gonna need it
A n***a too ruthless to lose it
So I abuse it proving the uses that I can do it
You see I haven't made it yet but I feel I'm getting closer
But It's all good cause I'll be at the top when it's all over
Marijuana my odor, blowing up like supernovas
Maybe clouds shaped like clovers
Ha dreams of a stoner
It's hard trying to Stray Von in a world full of Zimmermans
It's a shame I have to fear putting a hood on my head
I think I can make it happen as long as I have my pa**ion
But until then all I can do is imagine...
Imagine..
Yea Just imagine
[Sample]
I love living
I think that's infectious
That's something that you can't fake
Greatness is not this wonderful, esoteric, elusive, god-like feature
That only the special among us will ever taste
You know it's something that truly exists in all of us
It's very simple
[Verse 2]
Light up the world with a voice
Who's choice was to reign from the fame he gained without 5 or 9 royces
Check your resources
The Kidds outspoken even though I'm focused
In a world that's hopeless
Frozen in time with the devotion similar to Beethoven
Still unbroken with these moments treasured are golden
So I've chosen this moment to channel into your orange like Frank Ocean
What's a king without his queen?
A prophet without his dreams?
A kid without a hero not in tune with what he sees?
A hollow shell full of potential
Missing traits considered essential
Call me a fool like Cole who's tools cripple his mental
Louisiana boy with all American dreams
Spitting a head of steam that'll demolish and conquer your whole regime
Emcees claim no lies but my bars be the truth
You the old news I'm the game's flame igniting the fuse
But I think I'll be fine as long as I have my rapping
But until then I make it all I can do is imagine...
Just Imagine...
Imma make it happen...
Imagine...
Imagine
Just imagine..
