trey martin - lost in the dark lyrics

[verse 1]
tell me why some people don’t, make it/
they can have the hustle and still not make it/
the fear of failure makes me feel complacent/
taking these steps cautiously/
not sure if i’ve been built strong enough for this dream/
i’m sorry to everyone who i might let down/
like my momma and my daddy who think i’m a let down/
momma i’m sorry for making you cry/
my dreams are stronger/
and it’s what i truly desire/
seeing other artist love they moms/
with all the support they can give each other/
the birthday surprises/
the stage popups/
i know i’ll never have that/
seeing you backstage in concerts/
not having your support hurts/
all you want is the best for me/
and i understand/
but all i want is to live my dream/
all i want is to live my dream/

[chorus]
stop wasting your time/
go get yourself a real job/
that thing doesn’t, get you any money/
do you know what you’re even doin’,/
get yourself a degree/
quit wasting your time/
you’re not a f-cking rapper/
why don’t you find yourself a real job/
why don’t you start paying your bills/
stupid camera sh-t/
wanna be f-cking studio sh-t/
what about the bills that i got/
your wasting your time/
idiot/
wasting money and food on you/
wasting your credit and sh-t/
f-cking stupid/
this ain’t, f-ckin’, funny/
why don’y you really stop/
lazy -ss/
why don’t you get out of the house/
take control over your life/
is it even worth it/
stop hanging out with your friends/
f-cking disorganized piece of sh-t/
use your mind/
wasting money on pictures and sh-t like that/
get a real job/
the f-ck man/
f-cking support, what support/
do you understand what you’re doing to your life/
get yourself a real f-ckin’, career/

[verse]
i don’t care about the scars along the way/
i’m the coal with time i’m a diamond/
but i understand if you don’t see that/
one day i’ll have millions of supporters screamin/ believing in there visions and dreams/
i know when you cry i can hear you every night/
praying to god to change me/
to make me see the world with a different set of eyes/
i’m sorry/
i’ve never reached your expectations/
i’m sorry/
that i was never the man you wanted me to be
i’m sorry/
that i wasn’t as smart as jezi/
i’m sorry/
that i wasn’t as religious as daddy/

daddy you know i love you/
from every action you’ve taken/
i’ve always been on your mind/
and i appreciate it/
i can’t ask for a better father/
but i won’t be blind i know you’re stubborn/
if you ever hear this please don’t cry/
i love you and your a og/
i can see it right under your disguise/
you wanna see a future in me/
you wanna see your son in a chair/
with a suit and tie/
taking calls/
on the top floor/
be the boss with flexible time/
but that’s not me/

i’m sorry that’s not me/
i’m sorry i didn’t get the job you wanted/
i can’t live a life in a routine/
hating my job even if i make hundreds/
it’s not me/

you’re sons a creative, destructive designer
who’s only desire in life is to craft art with his mind/

i’m just wanting be an inspiration/
for this generation/
shed some light with a tad of motivation/
so these kids can get up and run towards there greatness/
i know i was chosen/
some won’t see that/
some won’t see that/

i wanna be remembered as an icon/
i wanna be remembered as a bestfriend/
wanna be remembered as a father/
wanna be remembered as a grandson/
wanna be remembered as a brother/
i wanna be remembered as a son/
i wanna be seen as a role model/
i wanna be remembered as an icon

[speech]
life is a canvas/
you do what you want with it/
you use the colors that you desire/
the brushes that you feel that are just right/
but you don’t grasp your full potential/
you color what everyone else colors/
you use the same brush everyone else uses/
to have the satisfaction of being accepted/
you don’t want to stand out/
the fear of being laughed at for being different/
so we all paint in grey/
emotionless/

[part ii]

[verse]
ambition with a clear vision/
chasin’, all my fears/
they don’t, get it/
too focused to where i’m headed/
life is a canvas got only one lifetime to finish/
stop wastin’, time and get up in it/

got weight on my shoulders/
people sleepin’, on me/
got a coal soul/
give me more pressure i need a shine/
give me more time/
and you will see who i speak to/
i speak into they mind/
the art of evolvin’

the fruit of the greatest to ever live/
a legend dies/
is reborn in 1996/
heart movin’, to the beat/
(bless)
rap keep me alive/
(yes)
waitin’, for the power/
(yes)

once the king steps down/
the next takes over/
i can feel it in my genes/
i can feel it/
(d-mn.)/
give half of your melon/
i’m sure you will agree/
transfer quarter pieces
thru my pen/

[chorus]
pull up/
hop out/
pull the trigger and shoot/
only got one chance/
for you to make a move/

we got/
one life/
that’s just how it be/
cut off all the people who got negativity/

pull up/
hop out/
pull the trigger and shoot/
only got one chance/
for you to make a move/

we got/
one life/
that’s just how it be/
cut off all the people who got negativity/

[bridge]
born a legend/
legends neva’, die/
stay true to my roots/
movin’, in silence day and night/
lowkey in the concrete jungle/
breakin’, walls thru every struggle/
chasing the pursuit of happiness/
money, power and fame/
holding me back in chains/
but could i get my change?/
maybe keep my two cents?/
diggin’, deep within this mine/
finding gold inside my mind/
let my riches flourish inside your life/
and maybe you’ll understand my vibe/

[verse]
uh-huh
i’m on the come up/
give me 365 times four/
no more/
chasin’, dreams as i’m running with my fears/
pointing a gun at my self-doubt/
ain’t, no stoppin’, me now/
life got no protection/
when you allergic to that late text/
why you wastin’, your time/
starin’, at the tv screen/
1 show/
too show/
three shows/
like that you will never be/

tell me do you see your future/
do you look at yourself in the mirror/
i’m thinkin’, my skin is getting clearer/
sensei thought me how to meditate/
look into my eyes/
i see a king/
who’s a crown for his city/
and a diamond in disguise/
but that’s me/
who are you?/
who you wanna be?/
a mediocre human being/
who will be forgotten/
in 2083/

let that sink in/
life is a traffic jam/
you never wanna take sh-t for granted/
people expect to have results/
without doing any of the practice/
what the f-ck were you/
f-ckin’, expecting?/

on to the next one/
hear a thing or two/
you gotta love yourself/
you gotta look in the mirror/
you gotta believe/
nothing in this world can stop you/
except yourself/
now throw dirt on me/
and watch me grow

[chorus]
pull up/
hop out/
pull the trigger and shoot/
only got one chance/
for you to make a move/

we got/
one life/
that’s, just how it be/
cut off all the people who got negativity/

pull up/
hop out/
pull the trigger and shoot/
only got one chance/
for you to make a move/

we got/
one life/
that’s, just how it be/
cut off all the people who got negativity/

[bridge]
born a legend/
legends neva’, die/
stay true to my roots/
movin’, in silence day and night/
lowkey in the concrete jungle/
breakin’, walls thru every struggle/
chasing the pursuit of happiness/
money, power and fame/
holdin’, me back in chains/
but could i get my change?/
maybe keep my two cents?/
diggin’, deep within this mine/
finding gold inside my mind/
let my riches flourish in your life/
maybe you’ll understand my vibe/
cause’, i’m shooting for the king/
ah/
