[Verse 1] At times I wish that I could get away Take me back again now to those better days Do it for the kids just like Yeezy at the VMAs Now we try to get rich, balling like the NBA Couldn't buy me out this b**h, not for sale no layaway Look, the days pa** and this world got me shook Got some cops k**ing kids the TV paint them as crooks And I know our generation barely opens a book All we care about is Kim Ks looks that sh**s crazy Still I know we're all just trying live and find a destiny Trying to make it all work I need to find a recipe cuz This ill sh** really doesn't have a remedy They couldn't k** my soul no matter what the type of weaponry is f** a hater trying to say how to live This life is a blessing I'm giving thanks for the gift And so we shine with those ultra light beams in our genes right And when the song plays everybody sings like [Chorus] I know that they want me now I know they want me falling down Stars were meant to shine These places on my mind Will they be there when I When I come around [Verse 2] [Indie Thot] And now we back up on this properly Living large and drive cars across the board monopoly f** you, pay me, that's my only policy My problem is I'm full of pride and stick to my philosophy I rarely smoke but know n***as who roll a lot of weed Afraid to knock out won't and wake up that's that Apollo Creed But I'm seeing clearly now, finally my eyes are open Now I got my visions set, tell n***as I'm tryna focus See myself across the seas, sell my sh** across the oceans Hear my voice around the globe, new doors that I'm tryna open Dudes who turned to selling dope, hoes who turned to prostitution Nothing left to give em hope, guess that rap is my solution I'm from a good hood, momma helped me dodge the shooting Never been within the range but for the but Rover bulletproof it Still been through that fire though, and I got the scars to prove it Imma steal the entire show and maybe we can start a movement [Chorus] I know that they want me now I know they want me falling down Stars were meant to shine These places on my mind Will they be there when I When I come around [Verse 3] Look how this music came and saved my life Too many times I used to pray at night Way too much all in my head Sometimes I just can't say it right They tell us that life's a game and I've been trying to play it right This here is my blank slate watch me as I paint it right So, I know what glistens ain't gold or what it seems like But I've been Trying to turn dreams into my real life And so I speak through my soul I'm like an old land mine See I've been waiting to blow and sh** I still might Now it's place to place devil matching face to face Look at how we're looking at color instead of human Race Just chasing capital nobody wants that lower case We hope it never rains shining hoping for better days So hold on I'll make it all come true And all of those that show me love they could all come too I couldn't tell you where I'm going but these places I've been Are just the start of the story so let the journey begin [Bridge] I know places we can go Places I know places we can go babe Babe I know places we can go Places we can go I know places we can go babe Can we get away? [Chorus] I know Places we can go Stars were meant to shine These places on my mind Will they be there when I When I come around Stars were meant to shine These places on my mind Will they be there when I When I come around Stars were meant to shine These places on my mind Will they be there when I When I come around
