Major Star

[Intro]
Montage

[Chorus]
I told my mom, "One day, I swear I'm gonna be a major star"
Major star, major star
I told my dad, "One day, I swear I'm gonna be a major star"
Major star, major star

[Verse 1]
I told my pop, "One day, I swear I'm gonna be a major star"
Play your part, teach your kid, gotta raise 'em smart, don't make this hard
Last week, got a A in art
All you wanna do is break his heart
All you wanna do is take apart
Can't shine 'cause you made him dark
Case and point, never gon' stop 'til I proved to the world I'ma make my mark
Gotta praise my God, you could say I'm scarred
Matter fact, you could say I'm flawed
Damn shame my life is a gamble, you can bet I'ma make my odds
Grown up, livin' life as a vandal, who the fuck gon' save that, boy?
One day, I'ma make it big
Prove you wrong, lace my crib
Buy my car, make my kids
The day you die is a day I live
Gotta break my rib just to make you look
Cry out loud just to make you cook
It's a game of chess, gotta take your rook
And the pain I get, it'll make you shook
Look, I'ma tell y'all like he told me
Take that pain, you a OG
Why buy one? You could own three
I been on the block since '03
See dad, I made it
In and out of prison, I skated
And I'm proud to say you my favorite
You turned my love into hatred
I hate it

[Interlude]
I didn't like my father 'cause he would beat me just because, uh, he felt like it
To get my attention, I guess
He would think that from coming out and smacking you
Yeah, basically—

[Chorus]
I told my mom, "One day, I swear I'm gonna be a major star"
Major star, major star
I told my dad, "One day, I swear I'm gonna be a major star"
Major star, major star

[Verse 2]
I told my mom, "One day, I swear I'm gonna make it out this hood"
And when I'm gone, there's no comin' back, I'm gonna make it out for good
I'm gonna be a big rap star, football player, or basketball
That's just all, what she said, "Just don't end up in a casket, boy"
End up dead 'cause you're askin' for it
But I got a passion for it
Now, I gotta add some thought
I ain't got no damn support
Damn, I'm lost, I don't want a nine-to-five, I don't like followin' rules
How could I lose?
Never laid down and died, tough like Ndamukong Suh
I'm promisin' you, "I'ma be amazin', ma, I'ma be a major star"
That's what I'm gon' do, "I'ma be blazin', ma, I'ma be a major star"
This time, I gotta prove that I am just one of a kind
There's nobody else on the planet, could damage the game in a couple of rhymes
Cut from a cloth that no one can find
They say I'm just stuck in a time
Where niggas could rap and no suckers could shine
I been sellin' crack and been bustin' my nine, ah
Just tryna make mama proud, calm it down
There's no more drama now, I guess that's karma now, wow
