Omen - Window lyrics

[Hook: Shalonda] As I look out the window, ain't no telling what I'll see As I look out the window, what does this world have for me? As I look out the window, will I see the sun shine? As I look out the window, will I see the clouds in the sky? [Verse 1: Omen] Witness the transition from a man to a king Nothing's been given to me, I've earned everything I deserve much more This what I worked for Wasn't settling for no 9 - 5 work force And it's a damn shame you think that I don't see your campaign Man, I don't owe y'all a damn thing Some of 'em mad cause I don't hang on the same corners I got friends that can't wait to say I changed on 'em Time is money and you steady tryna keep me in debt Acting like a Nike sponsor, try to keep me in check Name the best of the best, and I'm better than that I'm the answers to the questions that have never been asked You can love me like your favorite, you can hate me like a Laker Long as you know I am a genius, you should call me Amadeus Mixed with some Ossie Davis, lyrically, I'm a savior Made in God's image, so you can call me the greatest Disrespected, neglected All in my faith been tested Never thought like a victim, I take my losses as lessons Hated all of my bosses, aggravated my teachers Cause they saw my potential but knew I would never reach it Man, I hated school, I picked my major, but that ain't make me no major moves And everyday was like a living hell, but still I made it Graduated and I live to tell, I look out the window and wonder will I win or fail? [Hook: Shalonda] As I look out the window, ain't no telling what I'll see As I look out the window, what does this world have for me? As I look out the window, will I see the sun shine? As I look out the window, will I see the clouds in the sky? [Verse 2: Omen] All of my friends moved away, I'm left alone Wondering who's here, my college years made me lose hair Was planning to move to New York, but I was too scared Was tired of telling my family just "give me two years" Cause two years turned to five, and five turned to ten And pride wouldn't let me see depression setting in Lock yourself in a room doing five beats a day for seven summers Man, it's something you can never stomach Bloggers coming at me, acting like they know the way Disrespect me, and say that I'm just my friend's protégé Like I ain't been working for years on my own, writing rhymes Doing songs making beats all at home by my lonesome My time is now, that's irrelevant How could somebody named Omen be so heaven sent? Window of opportunity was always draped and sheered The story of the man that forever perserveres [Hook: Shalonda] As I look out, as I look out, ain't no telling what I'll see As I look out, as I look out, what else is put out for me? As I look out, will I see the sun shine? As I look out my window, will I see the clouds in the sky? From the outside looking in, nothing is as it seems I wake up everyday at five for my dreams I dare you to walk a while in my shoes to see what I've endured This is a song for creators, the lovers, the painters, the dreamers, the crafters, the masters, and makers Never wanted anything more, never wanted anything more Never wanted anything more, never wanted anything more Never wanted anything more
