skyblew - you beat me to it! [shia labeouf] lyrics

verse 1:
look at me now, grandma, hope you proud
i didn’t give up, i kept writing on the clouds
although it’s been a battle, my soul bruised
only way to win is to learn how to lose
know it’s contradicting, i don’t mean to confuse
we learn from mistakes, give us room to improve
a lot of you couldn’t walk a mile in my shoes
my tunes jazzy, ironic we walk with the blues
but i can’t complain, let the music be my muse
most thought it was funny, well i’m glad you amused
‘cause i’ma touch the sky, i’ma see the sun
been redeemed from the past, things we have done
that only god can judge, i gotta move on
plenty memories i made in them group homes
and foster homes that i’m tryin’ to eliminate
the nightmares are starting to form into a face
that i’m tryna forget, the images they haunt me
and thoughts of my mom, wondering why she ain’t want me
then i stop and think, look where i am now
became a man, didn’t demand a handout
i standout, fall through the doubts, grew from experience
found my true strength in the moments of my weariness
in periods i want to end it all, people come to me for inspiration
but what about me? who i call?
‘cause it’s hard to trust, everybody seem phony
only wanting something from me, i came for bologna and bread
me and my mama and stepdad, just tryna get ahead
i was five, we was tryna survive by threads
they taught me how to value what’s around me
arms spread right below the heavens where they found me
a young legend, well so they claim, i’m a king
just a ordinary guy who happened to grew wings
for my dreams, coulda been a rolling stone, can i kick it?
rest in peace phife, ali, prince and the gifted
phenomenons that we lost searching for the parmesan
tryna get a slice of life, i’ll take two papa john’s

chorus:
and i’ma show you what it sound like
food for thought, gettin’ full off a sound bite, yeah
a little jazz for your membrane
my pen stain, whole world going insane, yeah
just relax for a while
let the pain go out of style
destiny is calling, i was just about to dial you first but
you beat me to it, you beat me to it, yeah
you beat me to it, you beat me to it, girl
you beat me to it, you beat me to it
i was just about to do it, i almost blew it
life ain’t nothing to it but to do it
shi labeouf, you was right, man i knew it
gotta…
(do it) x14

verse 2:
always stood out, like a sore thumb
tryna walk the right path in case the lord comes
‘cause to somebody out there, i’m a hero
it seems life’s and death the only things we know
2008, one of the girls i loved
stood me up on christmas eve, never picked me up
from the shelter, i guess i wasn’t good enough
a homeless man there told me, ‘son, i know it’s rough
but you gon’ get through it if you keep believing
aim for the skies, that’s the only way to even the odds
reach for the stars, kid, you still young, there’s a way for the lost’
i never forgot him, his message still embedded
i even wrote a song about him, “pigeon man,” check it
in my unmodern life learned nothing is impossible
nothing from nothing leaves something, that’s only logical
the prodigal son, returning my boo thang
this autumn bad, kicking’ flame lookin’ like liu kang
my method man wu-tang
you’ll never hear ‘you changed’
cut from a delicate cloth but it do stain
for real, but i’ma ge-ge-get it, i don’t mean to stutter
everybody sound the same but you’ll never find another like me, uh
and can’t forget sublime
put some lovin’ in your mind
do you remember the time i was moonwalking on saturn, i drew my own pattern in this game?
me sounding like them? i couldn’t fathom
we need more from thinkers and less hype-beasts, capeesh?
the key to youth – iron out the stress and the wrinkles bond to the crease
i’ll see you later
fresh to death, made the reaper wear a respirator
an alligator ‘bama crocodile when you crack a smile
that makes all the pain worth the while and i’m out
