Tarik - Dead Presidents lyrics

[Hook] I'm out for presidents to represent me, get money I'm out for presidents to represent me, get money I'm out for presidents to represent me, get money I'm out for dead f**ing presidents to represent me [Intro] I ain't been here in a minute so, I got a lot of ventin' to do [Verse 1] Scared of tomorrow, hearts they full of sorrow Word to moms I'm tired of all this bull, no Chicago Should I face my problems or just drown them with this bottle? Tough decision but either way its goin' be hard to swallow So now I'm thinking man up, but what the hell do I know? Mama's saying the family's strugglin', I'm like "I know" I take another deep breath, try to make the time slow Cause god knows my dreams are hard to reach like a high note My name means leader, I'm trying not to follow And stay away from weed, but my life is full of pot holes And I be swerving in em like I'm driving with my eyes closed I kinda like the thrill of it, I can't even lie though These rappers only do it for the chance to say I got those While I be thinkin' future for my kids, they thinking models Before everybody was playing me like the lotto But once I'm getting mega millions they gon' be like bravo Huh yeah and I'm goin' be like I know, huh yeah yeah I know Uh tell me why you lookin' surprised though Is it because you was the same ones saying that I won't? [Hook] I'm out for presidents to represent me, get money I'm out for presidents to represent me, get money I'm out for presidents to represent me, get money I'm out for dead f**ing presidents to represent me [X2] [Verse 2] Now as I am sitting here debating where it began I gotta tell it like it is, I ain't here to pretend It kinda hurts to see these rappers getting exposure and noticed When it feels like it should be me cause I'm better but no one knows it And I, don't get it twisted I ain't hating I'm just hurting Maybe I'm just saying this because I'm young and I'm still learning But you would say the same thing if you was working hard And you felt like your boss gave your promotion to the wrong person Trust me, I'm happy for you but if I made the decision Honestly, I think I'm just more fit for the position So I'll just keep on watching, yeah I hate it it burns But for now I'll keep on working and just waiting my turn Because I'm destined to make it, because I'm destined for greatness If I keep pressing and chasing I know I'm bound to blow up Feeling like I'm stood up on a date because my time didn't show up Hoping it all is coming soon because I'm almost grown up Why am I the one chosen, why am I the one broken? Even though it might seem like I'm confident, underneath I'm just hoping I'm feeling like a Jehovah witness knocking door to door But every time I'm praying to god that it'll open, but pause Come on man, you can't think like that Don't let failure cross your mind, I mean to think like that You better not be giving up cause it sure seems like that And you know damn well you wasn't taught to dream like that It's better to know that I'm nice, I'm letting it go can't think twice I'm ready to blow let's get right Keep steady, we close, it's in sight So if you by chance have a toast, look up at the sky And take a second just to celebrate the star of the night Ha oh wait, that would be me though And yeah you gon' keep hatin' on me so I'm sure whoever he is he probably spit real good And I don't know him but I know he ain't nicer than me yo [Hook]
