Dilated Peoples - The Bigger Picture lyrics

Alone when I was growin' up Sometimes you, sometimes me Always love Train hard and I'mma focus up Got it all but ain't have enough Alone when I was growin' up Sometimes you, sometimes me Always love Train hard and I'mma focus up Got it all but ain't have enough I'm out the shed and the tools brand new Dear momma droppin' j**els that I never ran through The most driven never sat up in the back seat The most forgiven never flaggin' down a taxi That's my word if it's meant to outgrow Lake I used to run home to catch the last of my show sponsored links Some move to the future others livin' it slow Old tunes tryin' to find where the memories flow You know I try to chase 'them down no dragon They shot a Beatle do people still imagine? I think the world could be a better place No fam but I still set a table and I said its grace I think I let you in my life all access Gift or cursed, it's cursive closed captions Misinterpretin' the pa**ion Saving face ain't a game, ain't a time for retractions I learn one way then front the opposite I learn behind the beat, now I learn on top of it I do go against the grain I do take bigger pictures that don't fit in the frame Alone when I was growin' up Sometimes you, sometimes me Always love Train hard and I'mma focus up Got it all but ain't have enough Alone when I was growin' up Sometimes you, sometimes me Always love Train hard and I'mma focus up Got it all but ain't have enough Describe the ink well Thoughts sketch a snapshot Vibrant check thedetails now the family eats well Used to cut the mould off bricks for grilled cheese melts Wandering the crumbling castle wondering how things fell Mansions and lap pools asleepin' on back pews Pictures and statues , roaches and raps move Thankfully I seen it all alive and I'm grateful With Curtis Mayfield singing 'Just be Thankful' Slappin' at a gla** house, true colour Couple old cats on the roof covered Nodded and they nodded back Respect acknowledged Got a fine arts degree plus the streets are our college California campus I studied abroad Bloodied the canvas, pondering atlas, what if he shrugged? The rich lady asked what if we thugged? Humanity said I'm feelin' drowsy what is the drug? Wake the team up, never alone but on my own two Help the elevators check the levels that we grown through Philanthropic maybe cause I did my dirt There I'm on it, honestly I never fronted all is all I ever wanted Keep an eye on hustlers, watch out for the schemers No more keep close to the dreamers Awake tryin' to live dreams physically, energy is extreme Lessons of infinity envisioned on the big screen Alone when I was growin' up Sometimes you, sometimes me Always love Train hard and I'mma focus up Got it all but ain't have enough Alone when I was growin' up Sometimes you, sometimes me Always love Train hard and I'mma focus up Got it all but ain't have enough Always love The bigger picture,picture The bigger picture,picture
