[ Featuring Cloud9foreal ]
Flip the page up, another chapter being wrote
I hope that in this one I don't end up being broke
They'll say he made it of the truth that he spoke
In this world full of lies, now that would be dope
Twist and turn, crashed and burned, I lived I learned
I yearn for the day that money ain't a concern
All 'em lines that I wrote and all 'em smiles that I've earned
And all the vibes that a brought, patiently waiting my turn
Like the candle in the dark, patiently waiting to burn
Shines the light in my heart to find that troubles stirs
Stand on ten toes I been hit never hurt
Time just flies by, I been living in blur
And I believe in this dream, as big as it seems
Steady we counting the cream, while we plotting these schemes
Tired of all these misses, don't need no mistress
Blow like a whistle, motherf*ckers this is
My time and my day, I'm touching the sky
Smoke my blunt in the way, I'm getting so high
And I'm lifted
Thank god that I'm gifted
Trynna make it every way, cuz this is do or die
I been eying the cake to get a piece of the pie
And this it
Thank god that I'm gifted
If I been gifted with the present, blessed by the past
If present's a gift, I would never wanna look back
Say they call it life, I like to call 'em lessons
Learn to make corrections, pass 'em, address 'em
Hating with a passion will provide you two rations
In solitary confinement, sticking to depression
So you might as well, finna try to change the station.
Pride is the devil in all 'em heated situations
First thing in my head? Solve it with a Smith and Wesson
Bet in yours too, load 'em nines, put 'em vests on?
Nah homie, life is way too precious to be passed on
If I wasn't proud to make that call right when I had to
Life would have been different now, Jay T would be still alive
With her mom, gifted individual, I ain't gon' lie
Wrong crowd, wrong car, wrong light, wrong night
I guess what I'm trynna say is, follow your heart, but it's like
My time and my day, I'm touching the sky
Smoke my blunt in the way, I'm getting so high
And I'm lifted
Thank god that I'm gifted
Trynna make it every way, cuz this is do or die
I been eying the cake to get a piece of the pie
And this it
Thank god that I'm gifted
There's a lot of obstacles in your life
But you gotta wake up in the morning with motivation
With a aim in your head, you gotta reach some places
It feels like I'm talking to myself and Cloud9 from the future
I know the hardship of life, all the obstacles
You gotta overcome them, one day you'll be there, Amen
