[Hook]
On a much higher note!
Im just glad to get down (8x)
That's a hell of thought
I look u in ya eyes and start to seeing heaven a lot(4x)
[Verse 1]
Aye, what u doin
Wa**up with that aspiration that u pursuin?
Run into a few dents up in the blueprints
Give you a few hints, at what this life could be
ET earn at least a hunnid mill
In bout 4, 5, 6 years and i can just
Let my opulence stretch for many eons
Give or take, aw yea
On & On, like a Badu song
Feel i could do no wrong
Smell the coffee and the roses in the mornin Gotta thank the lord that the boy did it with no diploma
Oh no!
There I go again
Gettin ahead of myself
And it feels so surreal, I can't deal
My mastermind princi-peeeel, kept me down like four wheels
I cast out demons
Beat the odds in an over saturated market
And kept my morals even
Happiness peaked when I welcomed it to stay
My like minded ppl got they own path they paved
Bro i gotta say, no more check to check, checkin if my checking account is on delay
A n***a is independently paid
Retired my father, im screamin f** a Sallie Mae with a bag of big bills, & armed well with a bombshell beside me, treat her like her highness
Never camera shy, why fight the media, we embrace the limelight
Neva say what if
Touche, they say that we couldn't amount to eight figure amounts
Who woulda figured that faith would take us a mighty long way from the thin ice that we would figure skate
Barely iced out, still shinin despite the hate
Award winnin endeavors embellished, let alone dominated nominations
Such a blurry tunnel vision, but u know that down the line
When you see that light at the end of ambition that's what unfolds your storybook endinnn
But its always the closest ones that wanna bash u
Tell you it snot real
U won't Accept em (septum), thru yo nostrils
Go on & air it out, ugly be the beholder that wanna see you under
Theres a reason why they below you
Yea, it would be nice
But who's to say we have to wait to stop breathin
To be amongst heaven as human beings
In the midst of
The evil breathin down our nape, we eacape
And create safe a haven to the mental, spiritual and physical, a peaceful state
[beat switch]
Me and a couple compadres hit The Masquerade
Bas and EarthGang opened up for the Black Lip Pastor packed on the top floor, Curtis mustve been right, Heaven wasn't that far
Thank God Ye survived the crash to unlock a type of worldwide confidence that gave another light, pretty much another life
One that we can let our pain mend, give a second wind
Meet and wrk with many idols that are genuinely cool as f**
Keep high hopes
Can it be that
It was all so simple
Only a glimpse tho, comin from 221 to the Winslow
It's so, special nothin could beat this
Black Dante tryna find my Beatrice
May or may not have crossed paths already, so i guess God not done wrkin on this genius
To give a thesis
On the path that i chose
Where i finally find
Where one of my dreams end
Career love & true love
Imperfection is the key so don't be torn between this
Let alone the world
U know it drive u mad
Tend to the most that can ease this
In the midst of the facetious
Life, & that's how i sees it
Just try and u could reach this
Or u could join the rest of the normalcy and sleep til u 6 feet deep and still be breathin
The End
