[Verse 1: Bon Voyage] Went from riding to flying with my crew Now look everything looks so new We got a couple brand new endorsements Coachella press was awesome 2012 wrapped up in a bag You would think that's enough for me be glad Momma saying, "Relax, honey relax" But I can't if I need change still to pump gas Man these n***as don't, n***as don't understand What I really be going through Thankful for these brand new fans, though I know you feeling we over due For the top, man we did a lot Ain't enough for the world, it's a bigger plot Walk a tight rope line, but I feel the knots Losing hold at the ends, I could see the drop Let the needle drop I'm a chill right here stay walking Rather transfer my story through a ballpoint Ballpoint pen, Hilroy papers Do it till we raking in Hilroy papers 'Til there's a Beau Monde corporate office Change the weather forecast, see y'all later That's what I told my old friends on the corners Came a long way from the Pope John hallways All day parle, now we cape diem (DM) my twitter if you want to I dare you to try to get hold me Be careful, probably couldn't recognize me, I'm a werewolf Waiting on my prey to prepare its self for the taking I'mma grab it indeed cause nothing just come sh** you gotta work for Had a clear route, now we gotta detour Now I see tours and I want to see more Now I see who*es and they want a key for Hotel rooms, I just want to record And I ran around world b**h, now my feet sore Probably got more juice left in me to make a sequel of the movie Transcending with the same cast, I Sega Dreamcast Thoughts into fruition hoping your memory just re-laps Think back, I was riding with my seat back '9-7 Maxima, now I'm thinking 'bout a 911 It was '08 when the cops came through Homies set me up said I had gauge who Would of thought they'd would rob Gee next While I'm siting right there 4-5 to my chest No fear in my eye, just a bruise on my pride But the karma so real I swear n***a doing life, true story Funny how life change for the glory Young and want fame in the streets like it's important Old heads brain wash the young to meet a quota Caught up in the cycle of up top, we don't know Any better, we just Scarborough kids Opportunities there, but we never seen that then f**ed up cause I wish could see some friends Ride with me see the world we believed back then See we was supposed to be making lunch Easter Sunday, then knocks came from The door, cops broke it down said don't run we'll blow your head off ambulance gone come They down stairs, flip round chairs Keep your hands your head, n***a we'll drive fear Hide your moms in the stairwell, sister too 'Til we find we what we know you gripping, fool I'm like, "f** ya'll pigs! Then search my house" Upside down, still can't shake out What you came here for, break through car doors If you pop my trunk then you'll find my source Of light, my light, my light Found a box full of mixtapes, the fire to my dreams That's right, that's right, that's right Tell them haters I bless them, I'll see you in the after-life [Verse 2: Beck Motley] I'm a fraction of seconds nearly hit from a car running red that's speeding off He just missed and I stop and I look back all I hear *tires screech* and he slides right into a car Night fall, stop the car, emergency the blinker on the urgency what am I thinking of I nearly lost my life for what the driver thought Thought red was green, irresponsible Thoughts walk out of the car for now I'm thinking, "Wow!" Could've been my life somehow I made some vows to chase my dream that I believed Plus a promise to my father that I would make him proud Painful thoughts that I think of now How could I leave behind everything That i ever loved If it's time, it's time I'll find, rewind the time If I was a boy then, I would be the man now Where I left i love, I brought pain Thankful for love, and I'd do it again My best of friend, I can't pretend, Carolyn Love me unconditionally cause she loved me for me Took love for granted, demanded that I should be In a better place in the world to feel free Obsessed with the chase I was blinded to see I ignored what she gave five years over dreams That I thought would fill the void but I'm empty A lot would be destroyed if I never breathe Feeling sorry for myself cause I couldn't do What I had to do when she needed me, in her time of need Now I bleed, please Lord forgive me Far from my home I'm alone come and get me Off of this road this life would commit me Shades of the grey but it's more than the fifty, get me? Back to where we land in Vegas I get message a day before our show Everybody leaving voicemails on my phone about something That I need to know, she calls She alone back home, screaming, "You said you would be here!" But I wasn't, her mother pa**ed away, she was loving I had nothing, to say, to keep her calm Time stops I'm in shock And I really got to be there I'm supposed to be her rock It's just her and her mother in this world little girl is alone now and my heart drops What now, we live to die, but die to live, If God permits I'm off this sh** Coming off with this, lethargic sh** Set up in the middle, spitting riddles is the visual with The Alchemist Powerful sh** Flight back home I need confidence I'd admit First time in a long time feeling nervous and worthless under surface Wish I had the pill from the Limitless Give me this, God cause I need answers Give her strength and hope to fight the abandonment For you to see this world with me Meant to be the world for you, you were for me Thank the Lord you showed me love, you set me free Your energy it set me free Instantly beside my dreams, protected me I'll never lose the love that you gave to me The path that we had would be incomplete But I know you need to leave me for the world to see I know you need to leave me for the world to see Goodbye, and she smiles She inspires, and she's patient Full of life, full of strength, special kind (She inspires, and she's patient Full of life, full of strength) Thoughts are back inside the car Slowly driving home, count your blessings I tell myself as I drive this lonely road (Damn, damn, damn, damn) Damn I been through the worst, seen all the thirst Out with the pain, mind introvert Confidence hurts, search for self worth Comes with a price, lack of numbers All this advice, one should wonder They love you for you or love for what works Red for green, blood for money But go for gold if it's in front of you already But go for gold if it's in front of you already I said, but go for gold if it's in front of you already Count your blessings
