double s - double vision lyrics
[intro]
(double vision)
you see this life, there’s two ways of seeing it
there’s the way that you see it
and then there’s the way that the world sees it
it’s okay to feel alone sometimes
it gives you time to be at peace, to think
and to structure things
and then everything runs smooth once you find out who you are
[verse 1]
look, all i had was a pound and a dream
i wanted all of the mandem to win
but they ain’t never got it
it’s hard to know love when you’re from
a place full of sin
da feds took some real ones
got my brothers doing years in the pen
my mom used to get phone calls every week
like “your son’s misbehavin’ again”
i coulda gone down the same road
clubbed by the plain clothes, days in the pen
instead, i stepped in the booth and i spat my truth
those were my days with a pen
we were made to be men
most men are boys, but they snaking their friends
cuh they heard man are rakin’ it
and they really push weight, like they spend days in the gym
i’m from n17, it’s h-ll, not heaven
it’s cool daytime, but the night’s ain’t pleasant
little ship lane, i see the yutes dem sellin’
might go far k!lling [?] and evans
then hit mp to go link my brethrens
i know where i’m from, so i know where i’m headin’
if god gives his toughest battles to be strong
his soldiers know that i come through reppin’
’cause i got that vision
but what good is it if i ain’t got wisdom?
i’m from a place where everybody rides
but not everybody’s driven
the ogs told me
“listen, your money’s no good if you’re stuck in prison”
if only they knew my vision
i saw it coming, it was written
[interlude]
you see, sometimes, you’re the only person that sees the vision
not everyone’s gonna understand it
not everyone’s gonna get it
and we’re all at different levels of understanding
so it’s completely okay
but you just need to know yourself as a person
once you know yourself as a person
you know what you like
you know what you don’t like
everything runs smooth
and always remember
there’s needs and then there’s wants
and your needs are more stronger than your wants
[verse 2]
so much love in my heart
but i know it’s gonna get me k!lled
i was raised in the ends but i know from the start
man, i kept it trill
people claim that they’re genuine
my intuition don’t get that feel
they just put moss on for the ‘gram
but in real life they ain’t that real
gyal say i ain’t faithful, when i’m just out here
grindin’ away
and plus i’m a guy that can’t be fooled
i got my eyes wide and awake
’cause i ain’t got time to waste
when i know success is a mile away
and i don’t take no for an answer
double i’m a go-getter
so i always find a way
i was raised in the hood where we know what’s good
but i was bad more time, i was raised with crooks
it’s either football, music or uni
the rest of them madmen have to choke
god, there was no h-ll for them
no inheritance, no wealth for them
so they hit the strip to l!ck sells again
and if they get nicked they might see cells again
i had to grind for g’s
but i can’t go to jail for the minor p’s
that ain’t what i’m tryin’ to see
when i was at my lowest
i found a higher me
i know he would fight for me
and i know all the ones that’ll ride for me
i’m a diamond in the dirt
and i feel like jigga when he first made the dynasty
[outro]
(laughter)
i think you’re starting to understand who you are
sometimes you need to understand that
without you concentrating on yourself
and looking after yourself
you’re not able to help everyone else
so you’re gonna always have to look after yourself first
but that’s okay
the more you love yourself
the more love you can spread into the world
don’t overthink and always pray
(double vision)
