Oddisee - Tomorrow Today lyrics

Motivated by fear, it ain't the best but it works for me Being like the rest is like the worst to me Know that I have ideas, and I'm trying to bring them to life But no plan is executed perfectly My n***as wanna travel, the world they wanna see But they don't own a jet, so they think it ain't meant to be My n***as love to drink, they smoke a lot weed I told them if they saved what they were blowing they could flee This a tangible dream, Nas said it ain't hard to tell but I'm the one on this beat Odd said it ain't hard to reach, manifesting destiny I'm making that my specialty I'm chef'ing up a recipe I'm trying to get the best of me Lesser me ain't worthy of existing in the present That n***a had me messing with some sh** that had me stressing The future me done been through everything that I'm expecting He told me, holler at me in the past to get a lesson, okay [Hook] No it ain't nothing left to say No it ain't nothing left to say I think I'm (Ready for tomorrow today) No it ain't nothing left to say No it ain't nothing left to say I think I'm (Ready for tomorrow today) No it ain't nothing left to say No it ain't nothing left to say I think I'm (Ready for tomorrow today) I think I'm (Ready for tomorrow today) I know I'm (Ready for tomorrow) [Verse 2] Right now I'm chilling, later on the same No I can't complain, right now I'm winning k**ing's what i'ma make, for the sake of living Taking it to the top, no I'ma own all the building Found a women I love, I'ma give her some children What she gives me is great, she's my friend and my mate I'ma repay the feeling, intertwining our fates Put a ring on her finger, no bouncing on her I ain't Growing up is hard as f** Dodging it, yeah my guard was up Gotta take some jabs if you want to handle a harder punch Quick to knock you down if your outer's sound, but your heart is mush Not enough to talk if your bite ain't as tough as your bark Use to love the past, loath the present, hate the future Guess I just got use to rolling with it like a trooper Ceilings made of gla** are in the scope of what I shoot for And when I get it to crack, another level is the new goal [Hook] You see me running towards the sun Being burnt out's the only way I know I'm done I got to take a break I'm still awake it's after one But what I do ain't work it's all in fun But keeping it that way is where The secret it, deeply hidden from tons The lucky few to peep it, I'm among Never take for granted opportunities I'm handed And if it's within my means, I go above what I was planning I walk along the line between, manage and panic Frantically working, sometimes relaxing is the challenge You see I make these beats in my computer though Writing in my phone so, everywhere I go is like my studio Always feel at home when roaming around the planet A road is just a road, the traveler that makes the vantage My future's looking good and my present's in good standing My past is in the past, so I think I'm ready for tomorrow today [Hook]
