Turk - 1 9 9 X Intro (feat. Aura Griffiths) Lyrics



Turk - 1 9 9 X Intro (feat. Aura Griffiths) Lyrics




It was all a dream and quite frankly it still is
And it might be my fault, through it all I've remained the realest
I mean, this is rap, right? You gotta wanna be the illest
So when I jump on tracks my concern is 'will I kill it?'
But things changed, it seems like everyone's conforming
Sounding the same, I see it all the time when they're performing
Me? I said 'FUCK THAT', they gon' love me for me
I'm trying to eat, but when will I when all this shit been for free
Mixtapes I have 3, my catalogue? That shit's crazy long
So many features that these niggas never paid me for
I may be wrong, shit, maybe I ain't worth it
Might be the reason this rapper thing just ain't been working
No, I can't think that, it can't be true
This talent running through my veins is saying it can't be true
Yeah, these niggas rapping, but they can't be you
Got rid of the word 'can't', nigga, it's time to be you
I tend to talk to myself
Became my personal therapist, a place to run to for help
And I need it. Lord knows I really need it
I'm surprised I've never woken from my sleep one morning screaming
'Cause when you're dreaming, it ain't like when you're awake
Where failure's a reality disguised by the word fate
Relentless with my faith, I won't stop believing
'Cause soon it won't be long 'til a youngin' starts achieving
Plenty goals I've planned on reaching
This is bigger than me, my team and I been scheming
Eyes wide open, but I can't stop dreaming
Long days and longer nights, I ain't been sleeping
I'm haunted by these many possibilities
Like, what if I'm not braille to the blind, they're not feeling me
Or, what if I never reach my full potential
Round and round it goes in my mind like a cycle, menstrual
Considering all I put her through I gotta make my mama proud
I'm grown now, I gotta get off my mama couch
A varsity graduate, yet I'm feeling unprepared
For the life that's ahead of me, I'm feeling quite scared

Finally I've found in me
What I need to set me free
Free from the heartache, the stress and the pain
Been through it once, won't go through it again
For so long my heart would bleed
But I believed, now I'll achieve
Anything I set my mind to
So imma do what I gotta do
