Verse 1
Visions of billions but living in defeat defending debts cus I bought death upon becoming anything I wanted to be talent in the talons of the streets no malice I was pushing peace whilst peers was pusha T cocaine castles below the nose of women you’d see and call the bird of your dreams I lay beside the brides of the rich before they was dripped in diamonds they was from the bricks I woulda been a hustler baby but I wanted my community to live gave to those that never had amongst those that never give tryna see what I pray for daily before I have a kid but here I am tryna sleep for tomorrow shift cus I decided not to profit off my gift
(Hook)
Verse 2
The smell of success for the blessed I was raised with barely a pot to piss in with too much to confess I bury my shortcomings and reject that most merciful won’t forgive my sincerest regrets picture better days but the frames just a little bent perfection doesn’t seem to come these endz family in famine the elders gone I see bloodlines damaged the futures damning the man that taught me the everything merely a shell of his greatness my heart bleeds for him cus without him I’d just be another face in the matrix forever in my prayers if I was what I saw in my dreams as a baby he’d be in that E class Mercedes like you wanted but right now the past seems forever haunted happiness on a missing poster trying to endure realities torture
(Hook)
Verse 3
Inhaling the greatness wish I was shaded by a money tree but I’m just jaded I could become that very famous guy from that crazy statement but I don’t fit your reality tv playlist my truth is I’m fucking broke as joke earning above the average but I’m struggling to cope my wife working hard to pay the rent cus we have no where to go only if I did as my mother said my wife is but her mother dead sees her face everytime she tries to rest her head I try to understand her pain but it rips my soul to shreds couldn’t fathom her weakness as she weeps because the her emotional remedy is resting in peace all I can say is memories remain knowing it can’t fix the pain inside tears drowning my ego cus my mother gotta go one day but I’ll be a billionaire before I pray
