[Verse 1]
Tryin’ hard to stay aligned with others’ expectations? Well congratulations!
Keep it trill don’t chill no spare time to kill! That’s mentally ill when you’re pushed uphill.
Hope you don’t feel that you’re dreaming their dream, as per their own scheme, slowly losing your esteem.
Converted to a trap for crap and filling someone’s gap, earning their claps, falling into traps.
Are you born to absorb almost anything you’re told? Will you ever get bored while expecting your reward?
Looks like you’re being bound don’t you want to stand your ground, just stop, and look around before being drowned.
Are you acting with compassion, at your absolute discretion, making positive impression chasing someone else’s passion?
Get ready, set, go after their goals as yours, locked in a cage, forget the global stage.
[Chorus]
Doctor or lawyer, maybe trucker or hacker
You think I am stuck, but gonna test my luck
Thank you for the choices offered on a silver platter
But wanna be a rapper, wanna be a rapper
Technician, optician, maybe waiter or magician
You think I am stuck, but gonna test my luck
Thank you for the choices offered on a silver platter
But wanna be a rapper, wanna be a rapper
[Verse 2]
Do you need assistance to speak it into existence, ever tried resistance, still showing persistence?
Expecting cooperation, for their operation, during its duration, without frustration.
It may be your teacher, cousin, buddy, dad, or mama, making all the drama, or is it monodrama?
The reason you exist is to follow what they persist on with no consideration for your liberation.
Drop it and stop it while there is still time for your future salvation, go tell ‘em ‘it’s mine’.
The world is yours, are you ready to explore, why don’t you ignore, what they aim for.
There’s high probability that with your capability you’ll be given possibility for your creativity.
The journey may be pricy, with many ups and downs, many turnarounds, it’s a goal for your soul.
[Chorus]
Doctor or lawyer, maybe trucker or hacker
You think I am stuck, but gonna test my luck
Thank you for the choices offered on a silver platter
But wanna be a rapper, wanna be a rapper
Technician or optician, maybe waiter or magician
You think I am stuck, but gonna test my luck
Thank you for the choices offered on a silver platter
But wanna be a rapper, wanna be a rapper
Teacher or preacher, maybe miner or designer
You think I am stuck, but gonna test my luck
Thank you for the choices offered on a silver platter
But wanna be a rapper, wanna be a rapper
Wanna be a rapper, gonna be a rapper
