Khirey Akeem - 14. Ode ft. Sound FX lyrics

[Intro: Khirey Akeem] Poetry More like floetry Hopefully those labels will start to notice me This can't be life what about my dreams I'm stuck in these streets I swear it can't be I really wanna be in those stars With the stars Living like a boss But it's cost Ask Ross I'm lost In the world Lost in the smoke I just wanna die So I pray that I choke But I'm applying for jobs just to feel good Cause I'm not in a home So I belong to no hood But I still got hope But what good is hope If you don't have the fight [Verse 1: Sound FX] How you do it better than the best who ever did it? Counting down the minutes Counting down the seconds Til the clock hits greatness Til my lifestyle changes Star gazing close your eyes make a wish Martin said he had a dream, was it this? Cause you know Hollywood gets scary And the big apple gets rotten Yeah you know how the story goes... From rag to riches Humble beginnings Street lights look better when you're better off And when you're lost the wrong things will often bring you home What I want the most never felt so close Got a ticket for the world off the music that we wrote Hope can make the sun shine brighter Have the love last longer Won't take no for an answer Chillen, reflecting back on the glory days I'm just drunk, driving down memory lane We barely sober Blinded by glamor Emotions changing... By the hour Girls with bad intentions Friends with hidden agendas Who can you trust when your family sells your secrets? Front row to back stage the best friends with the euros You got morals You got ethics But they all went out the window For the chance to not be regular Tyson would probably wants it back Michael still the king But with another chance would he dance With his last All I ask Is peace and serenity Everlasting joy is something to cause scenery [Hook:] We gone take it to the moon Take it to the stars How many people you know Could take it this far (x2) [Verse 2: Sound FX] Tell me what taste better, champagne or the victory? You can have both just don't mix misery with company Secrets with honesty Ignorance with Hennessy That's a bad scene shout out Alexander McQueen Holy water in the church Dirty sprite in the south Gold medals for the hustle Platinum plaques for the house That's what it's about Doing things that's impossible Prove em wrong to the skeptical Sideline the heaters Holding up trophies that's arsenal Golden dreams is all that matters Grown men don't ask for favors Bentley coup No roof That's the southern card Show the church who blessed you Let the choir sing too See what a vision leads you A couple dreams came true A couple more fell through I was looking at success like to would lead me to the loot Shoot I'm tripping again Day dreaming Happy hour bars Sipping again Montana Morris on the beat now let the story begin Uh Now let the story begin What? Now let the story being Montana Morris on the beat Now let the story begin [Verse 3/Outro: Khirey Akeem] I'm closer to greatness then I am failure I love Ryanne I just hope I don't fail her I'm coming back soon I'm gonna take you away But for now I still struggle just wait for the day The clock keeps ticking cause time never waits If you got dreams chase em down don't wait Cause if you sit on your a** Then you'll see no cash Wanna puff puff pa** smoking on that cheap gra** It's stress yes but I strive to be the best I need no rest if I want to beat the test The best who's ever done it has pa**ed on the goal To keep his name alive and keep the dream whole The best who's ever done it such a debated topic I got dreams pouring out they can't fit in my pocket 2Pac Biggie, Big L and Big Pun All the best ever it doesn't matter which one They gave us the hope They gave us the vision They all stars in my eyes So every night I'm just wishing To get my tuition I love what I've become and I'll love what I became Meaning I'll grow old look back and say dang I was homeless for a while and it taught me a lesson Always keep God no matter how big the stress is I found myself on the streets But that's where I found myself I found out what I wanted to do And who to do it with Sound FX on the beat Enjoy the Sound effects Put your money on your dreams that's your best bet
