too dapper - chasing dreams lyrics
ive been out here chasing dreams like they stole my pot to p+ss in
cause they stole imagination when my age found it fitting
had to find a way out
one that my family could witness
but my pockets needed change
now i’m employed washing dishes
or selling you clothe, perfume, or cologne
i had the stench of grind and had my homework at home
the whole time spiting rhymes
but where’s the time to record?
where the time to record?
even when my blood and my sweat got me college
the hustle kept me focused on the bag and the dollas
i ain’t boasting
i’m just reflecting a reality
of a poet that was m+ffled
by the hunt for the finer things
but now i get bread
i ain’t blowing it on a benz
got invested in the market
imma see it all the end
meanwhile i’m taking trips
sipping drinks i don’t understand
sipping drinks i don’t understand
its too dapper and i’m coming like a protest n+gga
im here for a reason and i’m gone get bigger
and till i see change
imma keep coming back
and i got a couple homies with the sticks in the back
got the speakers on blast
i’m coming hard like a cast
fix the broken system
while i’m getting this cash
rest in power to boseman it’s wakanda forever
showed the next generation we should be coming together
i’m a heavy set n+gga feeling light as a feather
cause these tears left me empty
hoping things gets better
mr. blake’s kids gone grow with the trauma
seven ain’t luck, it’s a sign of a martyr
so misunderstood that’s what he said in the carter
now we growing old and we looking to barter
for our life
like if i talk real nice
wear a suit and tie
do i still cause fright
ive been out here chasing dreams like they stole my pot to p+ss in
cause they stole imagination when my age found it fitting
had to find a way out
one that my family could witness
but when them blues got behind me
i was scared i got my wishes
bloods rushing
cause you could smell we been chilling
feeling stupid
cause i’m giving them a reason
no ivy league degrees
just a car full of children
just finished blowing tree
and discussing all the k!llings
i swear at that moment
i thought that we was finished
like if i talk real nice
can i keep my life?
to tell the honest truth, sir, i’m high as a kite
but you arrest me sir
it could end my life
even with no bullet
i can’t pay for school
drug offense prevent aid
one of their many rules
i swear we good kids we just made a dumb move
sidi in the back, he the father to siblings
working 3 f+cking jobs and he got high school to finish
my momma at home and her heart can’t take it
afraid she gone die if tonight i don’t make it
sir, i know you got a job here
but i got alot at stake here
she brittle like her bones
so no, i can’t stay here
anything i can say here?
anything i say, that you can hear?
(this from the heart)
ive been out here chasing dreams like they stole my pot to p+ss in
cause they stole imagination when my age found it fitting
had to find a way out
one that my family could witness
but my pockets needed change
now i’m employed washing dishes
