Hayden Forbes - Chasing Dreams (feat. Lo) Lyrics

Yeah
It's like
Everything I've done
Has been leading up to this moment
Chasing dreams (Ok now)
Chasing dreams (You're doing great now)
Chasing dreams (But can you take it)
I'm chasing dreams (Just try and make it)
Chasing dreams (Ok now)
Chasing dreams (You're doing great now)
Chasing dreams (But can you take it)
I'm chasing dreams (Yeah)
I've always felt like rappers just had the right component
It seems like they're always just trying to live in the moment
They own it, as soon as everything is recorded
They feel no pressure, they just set their targets (Zone in)
When it comes to music, Yela and Shady are what made me
The stories they've told have always impacted me greatly
In fact, lately, rap's been so inspiring, so now I'm writing things
Till somebody'll hire me and I can meet my fans so I can be signing things
I'll have platinum plaques framed up on my wall
Being rewarded for things for like how I'm out rhyming you all
I got a high confidence, a rapper I can see me being
Whatever happens in my life I gotta stop that dream from fleeing
Yet when I started to perform, I was soon feeling the pressure
Were my lyrics good enough? I became a second-guesser
I would always wonder how they did because I would stand stiff
But then I felt the touch of the cold mic and heard guitar riffs
Chasing dreams (Ok now)
Chasing dreams (You're doing great now)
Chasing dreams (But can you take it)
I'm chasing dreams (Just try and make it)
Chasing dreams (Ok now)
Chasing dreams (You're doing great now)
Chasing dreams (But can you take it)
I'm chasing dreams
The relationship of me and music has become entangled
But I know I've loved hip-hop ever since I was only a day old
The story sounds too fiction, man it must just be a fable
But you'd know it was true from the stories being told at the table
Now I spend most of my time alone, writing in a journal
And my desire to write will always and forever be eternal
But if the XXL Freshman list is out and it has not me
How will I handle these strong lyrics that support my weak body
My thoughts keep going back and forth just like a tug-of-war
But my writing's doing really well
(Just settled another score)
A year and a half later, time to show off my true music
With no excuses, some cuts and bruises, and no truces
(It's time to lose it)
Now I wasn't sure of my dreams, I kept on second-guessing
But then when I was spitting bars to a simple chord progression
And my hope is building up, great songs to me are just a mere routine
With everything you hear from me, it's clear to see, it's probably I'm
Chasing dreams (Ok now)
Chasing dreams (You're doing great now)
Chasing dreams (But can you take it)
I'm chasing dreams (Just try and make it)
Chasing dreams (Ok now)
Chasing dreams (You're doing great now)
Chasing dreams (But can you take it)
I'm chasing dreams
Chasing dreams
Chasing dreams
Chasing dreams
I'm chasing dreams
