[Verse 1: Ivan B] Yeah, Look I'm so tired of bussing these tables To put some food on the table Tired of all ya'll thinkin' I walk around with a halo Put myself on a pay road I helped the fam with the pesos Can't get out of this house Unless my bank account says so All these insufficient funds, story of the night Crazy how a piece of paper wraps around your life And to hear my father laugh, yo It's really been a while Like, we really only work so maybe we can cop a smile I've been thinkin' too much, my homies drinkin' too much So listen, this one for your soul my brother, fill up your cup Cause all that silence is cancer, when she calls You don't answer, bro, just cause she with you it doesn't mean that you have her Late night hoops with the boys Bless efy with the lay ups, we stay up They say if I shoot and make it, don't forget to take us I know, we always playin' just to look at the stars I know you scared of the future my man, I've been where you are
I know
[Chorus 2: ?] ???
[Verse 2: Ivan B] Yeah I lost the love of my life, for chasing more out of life Been lookin' up to the heavens, like \"Am I doing this right?\" I've been obsessing over love, yeah, that's a fight I never won What I learn from the war? Find who you are before the one Now they askin' where's the old me, man, ya'll don't even know me Forced my way into the stars And George Lucas couldn't clone me Gotta elephant mind, Gotta trunk full of rhymes What's a Rolex on you're wrist when you been workin' overtime
Yeah, Walkin' through the hallway Freshman year, got many fears I got my headphones on my ears I never listen to my peers Now they spinnin' what I'm spittin' but they salty wavin' back The more you get from life, the bigger target on your back So I kept my cirlce close, we built the things that we have Cause jealousy is hating love you wish that you had So listen when I say you gotta fight for yourself You gotta chase the life you wanna live I've been there myself
[Chorus 3 (Deeper): ?] ???
[Verse 3: Ivan B] Last one They love when they break you Hate you when you find the...happiness they're lookin' for So no, I got no answer for the voicemails in my phone And all the texts like \"Where you be at?\" No time for all that nonsense Got no time to even re-act All I know is who I be To the girl I met last week You shouldn't need 30 minutes for you to like what you see I wanna see behind the scene's I wanna see what beauty brings I wanna meet the girl at home before she bought these nice things
Put my chips inside these dreams Now I'm going all in, I'm ballin' My time is ringin' like my exes be callin', I'm on it I got these circles around my eyes, man I can hardly sleep When you ain't workin' someone else is \"Are you strong or weak?\" The time is now, take a sip, or let it slip You up to bat, the wanna miss You gotta swing to make a hit Don't you listen to the crowd But feel the beat of your heart I know you scared of what you want my love I've been where you are
[Outro: Ivan B] Yeah, Yeah, That's it! We made it baby! Ha ha
