[Hook]
(Verse 1)
Have you ever had the feeling that they call greatness?
Aint it the best you ever had? Screams from the haters
They don’t wanna see a nigga make it or have some success
They waiting on you to slip up or fall off a little bit
Just so they can laugh, but my eyes on the prize
Head to the skies, I bounce back once again
Mississippi bred nigga, I see my life crystal
They say the goin gone get tough but I’ma go getter
Fam and friends gone eat with me, buffet style so be greedy
Standing tall and talented, enjoying this thrill that I get
This yall year? Who said this?
Cuz even yo best can’t mess with this cause I’m flirting with doing some classic s***…b****
[Hook]
(Verse 2)
Ones in the air for yourself
Peace in the air for the nay-sayers
Treys in the air the people that’s grinding
Fours in the air for the niggas that’s shining
Fives in the air for all my fans
Cuz without you I wouldn’t be here
I woulda gave ten but I’m only doing one hand so please just bear with me
Look up the lights staring back down
Ears ringing form the roar of the crowd
Dreamed about this for so long
Scared of the planes think 9/11
RIP to fallen ones we’ll never forget ya
For all the dreams and aspirations I’m rapping now for
Ball players, doctors, nurses, even a lawyer
Technicians, pediatricians, fashion designers
So hip hop is all negative, they missed me apparently
Blame mom for my ways she did some good parenting
[Hook]
(Verse 3)
So no matter what life throws at you, just know you can get through
Regardless of what’s going on in the streets surrounding you
Bare dirt or full lawn, glass windows or barred ones
Never show they got to you, or else they’ve already won
Feed off the energy, let em know you number one
That you hanging on by a thread, that you gone make it through
I’ll be there to patch you up, which color black or blue
Even they shut us down, we’ll still be turned up fools
