Sent these to a good friend in New York this morning. Made me wish we had seasons in California to be excited for Spring.
And when I finally make it, I’mma stunt so hard
Evel as Knievel, I’mma jump so far
Way up in the atmosphere, I ain’t coming back
Be a jerk to these jerks, yeah that’ll make em hurt
Huh? Instead of young boy in the mirror
A young version of me, so I started to tear up
He said “you need to cheer up, your mind need to clear up
You’re already here, just be yourself from here up”
Then he disappeared and I felt something familiar
Something I was taught, something I had lost
If you are afraid, the fear that you gon’ change some
All you gotta do is just remember where you came from
I’mma keep it cool, and I’mma do me
It is what it is and that’s how it’s gon’ be
Until I get there
Until I get there
And yeah I got flaws, I know I’m not perfect
But all ups and downs, will soon be worth it
When I get there
When I get there
Love this! By OH JOY!
Some nights I just need a little bit more inspiration. This is mine for tonight.
My favorite lines:
He knows the code, it’s not about the salary
It’s all about reality and making some noise
Makin the story – makin sure his clique stays up
That means when he puts it down Tak’s pickin it up! let’s go!
He’s only focused on what he wrote, his will is beyond reach
And now when it all unfolds, the skill of an artist
Nobody really knows how or why he works so hard
It seems like he’s never got time
Because he writes every note and he writes every line
And I’ve seen him at work when that light goes on in his mind
It’s like a design is written in his head every time
Before he even touches a key or speaks in a rhyme
Now back to work….
Too bad they need to be cooler to pull it off.
It’s just around the corner….
Life is twenty percent what happens & eighty percent
how we react to it. It is through these actions that we define our character and true being. We are all dreamers and our own worst critics...we are all bound for heart break and inevitable struggles. But as long as we are true all things will work out
