This one's for you and me, living out
our dreams
We're all right where we should be
Lift my arms out wide I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters
(Verse 1)
Yeah, by the time you hear this rap
the game has already begun
They say that it’s too late, I’ll never
make it in this youtube game it’s just a
dry run
Telling me to me to give up on this
silly dream, that I should stop
dropping bars per diem, and now
they constantly mocking and
insulting me cuz they think it’s fun
But let me ask you one haters one
thing, what have you done?
Had a dream I was number one, wake
up still stuck on square one
My journey through this rap game is
really going to be in the long run
But I aint ever scared of the negativity
and jealousy, cuz all those haters will
still be stuck on ground one, even
after they realized that I’ve won
But not to be outdone, I could be like
every other rapper promising change
and individuality
But in reality were all the same, trying
to change the world, wouldn’t you
agree
I mean feel free to disagree, life is full
of choices and mine is clearly
displayed through these verses.
Used to never be able to face my
problems and mistakes head on, all I
had to give were my excuses
But that’s it no more excuses, it’s time
to heal up these bruises, and start
telling my story through these muses,
and finally start believing in this
music.
Used to be so sick, depression and
anxiety due to the mistakes of the
common high school society
I no longer care if they believe my
acts to be one of notoriety
Hater and doubters move aside, it’s
time for me to come inside with
confidence in every stride, cause
there’s nothing you can ever do to
damage my pride, and the only thing
you can say is that you’ve tried
So as I stand side by side, my music
soon too be know worldwide, but no
matter what I’ll always be reppin the
west side
And as I come into this game barely
peaking 6,1, I swear I’m going to fly
over this rim at 6,3
(Singer)
This one's for you and me, living out
our dreams
We're all right where we should be
Lift my arms out wide I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters
(Verse 2)
Yeah, first verse is already over, but
some people listening are still filled
with doubt
But that’s okay if it takes you awhile
to figure out, these words I write out,
Just show that I work hard day in
and day out
My father gave me some of the best
advice, telling me if everything was
so easy to attain then what would be
the point of living life?
If life wasn’t full of challenges and
strife, greatness would never rise, and
everybody would still be stuck on
their asses living in a fantasy life
Cuz from beginning fate was given a
knife, and told to cut up our journey
throughout life
Don’t for one second think that
stardom was easy because it took
Kesha 22 years just to get people to
be sleazy
And Dear Lebron James I know the
finals are making me you queasy, but
you knew since 03 that the journey
wasn’t gonna be easy
My game it will never stop, even as
they all begin to look up
Cuz even as I reach the top, there will
only be another up
And so I’ll do my best to never stop or
give up, or throw away the mop
It’s funny how people talk about
mainstream when the world just sees
it as American hip hop
Everybody sayin the at the
mainstream, bashing on how fake it is,
cuz underground is like the new
regime, just like how people never
put a picture up without having it
photo shopped
Because right now, real is the new
fake, and fake is the new real
So does that make me real or fake? I
don’t know, you can love me or hate
me give or take
I remember when I used to wish on
airplanes just like Haley said
Wishin for a way to get past all these
bullies but only got a fist in my face
instead
But what can I say even as I slowly
treaded through the hallway, I was
lost and could never find my way
But just like like shady I found my Dr.
Dre
In him I found a friend had my back
all day
So right now here I stand once again,
dreams in my head looking forward
to better days.
Cracking a crooked smile as this game
called life, because even through all
this strife and stabs by a knife I’m still
going to one day find a wife
(singer)
You and I know what it's like to be
kicked down
Forced to fight
But tonight we're alright
So hold up your light
Let it shine
Cause this one's for you and me,
living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
Lift my arms out wide I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see
IsA sky full of lighters
