I remember when I had 2pac in my Sony walkman listening to game black wall was popping. Wayne was the best carter 3 was dropping all white 3's first j's I copped and i was only like 18.In a 2 door Ford like 6 deep all I wanted back then was a P.Y.T wearing fake gold chains like Mr.T bring it back skipped class on lunch time always giving every teacher a hard time I never got to grad I know I hated math but that was my bad I was raised right. Why I love being blinded by the stage light? I don't know but i still get stage fright with a knot in my throat and Im next on the show but when i begin to flow i just feel like the black frank white. R.I.P to BIG never cocked back to unload a clip i mean i'ma say the truth I was a good kid shit, I'ma say it like it is and I'ma Digg deep don't want to be you just wanna be me some close friends got lost to the street but the court couldn't prove was it really his heat fuck student loans don't answer the phone can you keep them on hold? just leave me alone. but I stay on my feet like an athlete in Cleats flying off of the key dunking over your D.

Never be afraid to get up and change get up right now get your head up out of the clouds go and get a better role cuz the worlds your stage uhh bring it back to streets before I even ever started reaching other levels. Little youngin from the ghetto always had that dream what if I don't succeed?

Chorus: Ill never fail ill never fold for the throne going hard is all i know x2 Till our wrist are covered in stones for the throne going hard is all I know x2 Till they bury away my bones for throne going hard is All i know x2 Till we swimming in patron let em know going hard is All i know Going hard is all we know Verse2: This one here for the people every mexican black filipino every middle eastern asian latino every white muslim christian and hebrew native american islander crio scorpio capricorn aries or leo extraterrestrial human we equal, I don't give a fuck where you from together we one together we move to the beat of a drum together we drink and we cough up a lung get bread at the top bring it back to the slums, what I told my self fuck y'all ill sign my self and I cant explain what I felt when Canelo fought Mayweather floyd just kept that belt but trying is never a loss whatever the cost pick it up dust yourself remember whatever you gain started and came from only a positive thought and thats real shit fuck a hater we don't feel shit If a champ is as good as the shots he miss then just give me one shot promise i wont miss Im the best. Chorus: Ill never fail ill never fold for the throne (going hard is all i know) x2 Till our wrist are covered in stones for the throne (going hard is all I know) x2 Till they bury away my bones for throne (going hard is all i know) x2 Till we swimming in patron let them know going hard is all i know Going hard is all we know

Verse1: Give it up for my young intelligent women who independent as ever and making better decisions hardly ever getting rest busy with there ambitions and tonight she stay up late because tomorrow she got a written.Look nobody ever told her she can pave the way but she working and making it to a better place baby crying she nine to five'ing and daddy gone away problems rise bills to multiply the rent is running late. Damn, but she never take a day off even without her make up she looking good on her day off even with all the struggles she's knowing its gonna pay off still she wanna cry board a plane and just take off she hold's her head and remains strong she keeps it together and she remains calm but when all of her hope is gone I sit her down and I sing her this song I'ma sing her this song. Chorus: Before the sun you gotta make it through the rain just sitting here thinking about a pretty young thing she work hard so hard to maintain dreaming of finer things soaring high in a plane hey don't let the struggle get the best of you I said I promise we can make it through, keep your head high hold your head hold your head (to the sky) Verse 2: She do it all alone and even though it isn't much I'm proud she did it on her own her baby's getting grown she dreams of putting her through school without having to get a student loan, and in her eyes I see a vision she's dreaming of something different her life been poverty stricken wants a man if he can listen fuck her right give her the business hard to take a chance she don't wanna have to forgive him. na, always focused always making a move 5'5 smile light up the room her voice too a couple haters spreading rumors but she keeping it cool karma coming in full circle they'll be feeling it soon sometimes she bottles up emotions doesn't know what to do and on occasion a couple tears getting through don't cry boo because I know right now it feels like the hope is gone but stay strong i'ma sing you this song let me sing you this song Chorus: Before the sun you gotta make it through the rain just sitting here thinking about a pretty young thing she work hard so hard to maintain dreaming of finer things soaring high in a plane hey don't let the struggle get the best of you I said I promise we can make it through, keep your head high hold your head hold your head (to the sky)

Verse1: I used to feel like things would never change then we started drifting in our separate ways crazy how we would see each other every day to acting like we never met each other it don't feel the same, time move slower when your feeling pain on the hour glass Im counting every grain it's feeling like forever since you went away I even miss the arguing before before I'd make you say my name you say that I ain't who I used to be you don't know If you in love but you used to me now you talking to the dude that you used to see now i'm hearing love songs and they on repeat, why'd you have to walk out why'd you have to leave what you mean when you said you need room to breathe? Now I feel like adele rolling in the deep and Incomplete like a puzzle piece, I swear I can't stand you I hate how I can't have you I hope your happy with your man too but he don't hold you down like I do I know. Chorus: You miss my hands on your body put it on you like ja and shanti (Ja rule and Ashanti) listening to your heart beat got you breathing heavy while you on me let me hit it slow. Let me put my hands on your body put it on you like ja and shanti listening to your heartbeat got you breathing heavy while your on me let me hit it slow. Verse2: Now you and me past tense should've never gone past friends didn't think id become just a past ex gave a hundred percent like a past test hoping you'll send me just one text I got none yet Im checking my phone drinking until I got none left and its crazy because I never drink but lately all I can do is think Im holding on to my kitchen sink hold a hole in my chest hopefully I don't start to sink, Im hoping you feeling the same shit hoping Im someone you still miss hoping you know that I'm letting hope go, I don't hope anymore but Im hopeless, Im broken wont show it don't want anybody to notice i feel tears in my eyes but I, I just hold them and i've never seen my father cry so why should I? because I can't lie when Im dying inside and its too late to make right no need to apologize but if you asked what's on my mind I would ask you just one more time do you? Chorus: miss my hands on your body put it on you like ja and shanti (Ja rule and Ashanti) listening to your heart beat got you breathing heavy while you on me let me hit it slow. Let me put my hands on your body put it on you like ja and shanti listening to your heartbeat got you breathing heavy while your on me let me hit it slow.

Verse 1: At 9:30 I get up put on some clothes I see my grandpa on the stove eggs with chorizo only recipe he know's cook's it everyday for breakfast my grandma let him go, Sometimes I walk right by him and I ignore him but Isodoro is becoming more important appreciated by his daughter son he know's it conversations on the table he's asking me where I'm going, I tell him how my dream isn't far how we headed to the stars catching a flight to mars in other words Tata were taking off put your hearing aides on turn em up we about to ball like we been waiting for our whole life trading in the bud light champagne and cold ice, I wonder what It feels like? Chorus: Its Alright its Ok, i(It's alright) we been doing fine but is there a better way?( we been doing fine) I know in due time one day , we gonna find what we looking for (X2) It'll rain but it'll never pour. Verse 2: 2012 I wore the same pleather jacket with a new pair of jay's they were fake why you laughing, 805 south where I blew my head gasket on my way to work with the thermostat flashing, thats life it'll deal you a card every hand won't be a flush but you gotta keep on, I can't predict like the line in my palm but I can aim for the fence take it all the way home, Im not waiting on a miracle one day Im gonna be something we made it all out of nothing did what we had to do and If that isn't true, Then Michael Jordan ain't the best pac and biggie ain't your top 2, one day ill look back when we on and say i wrote that from the heart I put that on my mom we proved everybody wrong but until then there just words in a song. Chorus: Its Alright its Ok, i(It's alright) we been doing fine but is there a better way?( we been doing fine) I know in due time one day , we gonna find what we looking for (X2) It'll rain but it'll never pour. Verse 3: This is for everyone with a dream who are the definition of what hard work means, this is for the ones who won't sleep who ain't afraid to bleed for who the plan to be, this is for loosing a plan b for maneuvering through the bull shit all the negativity, it ain't easy they don't understand the vision that you see but a diamond is built with pressure 90 miles underneath so how the fuck couldn't a rose grow out of the concrete? I guess we all sheep? but no not me i rather die on my feet then live a life on my knees , yea one day Ill take a flight to japan or tour the autobahn in a lamb (lamborghini) eat a crepe out in france learn to speak Italian, one day Im gonna be the man Bridge: I know sometimes it feels like there is no light at the end of that tunnel but we just have to keep going after it you know, because success is falling down 3000 times and getting up 3001. Chant: This is for everyone with a dream, everyone with a dream. This is for everyone with a dream.

Verse 1: Im ready for my moment I swear i would've never thought I'd ever be this focused no matter how the road gets, I'ma floor it on the peddle hit a drift when the road bends eyes never closing, oh they thought I was joking I don't sit around hoping I put every plan in motion been at it since 06 from a pup to a grown pit from a shark to a goldfish they can't tell me what I wont get Im going hard even on the homestretch like a bow flex and I won't rest till my little sis steer the wheel with the audomars frozen(Audomars Piguet), you gotta keep going, let me show you how I'ma be here to hold you down. (Chorus) Verse 2: Im not who I used to be Im smarter and more mature I think differently you don't gotta prove a thing you gotta tell yourself your gonna live life for me, you gotta believe your dream you control your destiny look I ain't trying to preach I guess Im just trying to show you how i really think and I swear to god I want to rock right now step on stage I want y'all to get loud if it wasn't back then then my times right now touch that pen it go click clack blaow (gun blast) take that crown, raised off of rice and beans now Im something that the world never seen at thirteen, I downloaded Eazy E after that the rest is history. (Chorus) Verse 3: I came a long way from 2010 when I was stuck on my bed feeling depressed I couldn't see the end of the tunnel my life was a mess and they say i'm getting too personal but I gotta vent you need a club song Eric pick up the Pen start writing me something catchy you ain't using your head you sound like your bitching make a radio hit how the fuck you gonna make it with this personal shit! Fuck this yo this ain't a song I got something on my chest bothering me for way too long I just want to be me when the lights go on, I want to help somebody because you ain't alone they tried to tell me what I should and why I shouldn't do even tell me what I could and what I couldn't do for a long time i couldn't see the truth then I realized its up to you, this is coming from the heart this is something that I should've been doing from the start this isn't music this is art the entry to noah's arc only the beginning mind you the first spark this is prophecy we taking it to the stars.

Verse 1: Tired of getting pushed and shoved for a while I was dragging through the mud for a second I had forgotten who I was had to pull my self-esteem from right up under the rug when everything you hope'd for suddenly comes undone and everything you wanted was something that never was, had to recognize my losses been thinking of giving up but how could you give up on something you've always loved. Listen, to my father I wasn't good enough she passed me up I wasn't good enough they criticized I wasn't good enough but this time around motherfucker I know Im good enough, word to Budden Im a hundred miles and running bumping N.W.A waiting for pac's second coming hold my head like doing crunches ignoring there assumptions they hated but Im about to make them love it they don't hear me though. Chorus: (Lead) I dont feel how I used to feel I don't feel how I used to X2 (Chant) What they used to give em what they ain't used to X3 Im not what they used to give em what they ain't used to Verse 2: Im trying to set the bar higher and reach for a better goal because where Im from people hardly dreaming anymore they afraid of hitting the floor life a double edge sword I bet Ill make it swing like Gwynn in 94 I don't feel how I used to feel, I feel better because last year my pockets where going through bad weather and my homie out of jail he ain't going back ever and he tatted on his face but his whole life together, we judge each other by our wealth but even money couldn't buy health we look for approval in someone else we try so hard but we forget to love ourselves and my uncle got killed by a mexican cartel then the immigration wonder why we die on mountain trails, so even if your life a living hell just appreciate the fact you can inhale they don't hear me though. Chorus: (Lead) I dont feel how I used to feel I don't feel how I used to X2 (Chant) What they used to give em what they ain't used to X3 Im not what they used to give em what they ain't used to Bridge: We had to hustle through the trenches but we gonna make it in a second we had to struggle to progression but we gonna make it in a second had to hop up off those benches we gonna make it in a second took time to perfect it wrong turns and learned lessons we gonna make it in a sec I don't think they know.
