My Chance

My Chance (Original)

[Verse 1: MiQ]

This my moment, check the blueprint, I'ma own it, tell me who in, the ceiling can't hold me, every buildin I'm in is roofless, got the fight of a man with nothin to lose, take my chance cause it ain't given, thats the first rule

I always played hide and seek, with no one lookin for me, had to learn what love was, cause ain't nobody shown me, found my heart in these beats, holy matrimony, if you sayin I ain't real then homie you don't know me

I put everything, didn't have a lot to start with, I put everything, trynna get respect like I am cartman, doin cartwheels and bendin over backwards for attention, yet still not one glance, I could never impress em

If I had one chance, pass me that microphone, stood taller than ever when I set my eyes upon the throne, and I propose a new way to live, forget the judges, I'm a 10 on 10, a king, got the whole game up in my clutches, this my chance

[Chorus: jules]

Cause I've been waitin' for my time to shine
And now that it's here, I wanna make it mine
You never used to give me a second glance
Now you can't take your eyes off of me as I rise
Yeah, this is my chance

[Verse 2: MiQ]

In truth I do it for recognition cause there was a time, when I didn't even know who I was and that wasn't fine, I questioned daily what was running through my mind, was I crazy, no I wasn't, I was trynna walk when I was meant to fly

So I jump off the Earth and I take flight, for them boys and them girls who take my, words into consideration, when they think they worthless, I be sayin' patience, wait

I been there, knees bent, hands curled, look to the ceiling for signs but you only see the paint and your eye's blur, and your spine hurts, but you stand tall anyway, bite the bullets every day

Cause you know you gon spit it right back at em, let your defenses down, then go attack at em, send one to hell, send another ten back with him, karmas a you know, and you know we'll laugh at em, if it comes around, it goes around, that's basic, now lets slow it down

Red noses on the clowns that ever doubted you, prove em wrong, your 100,000th reason for your parents to be proud of you, we movin on, movin strong, pitstop for a happy dance, we knew this all would happen, we only needed our chances, damn

[Chorus: jules]

Cause I've been waitin' for my time to shine
And now that it's here, I wanna make it mine
You never used to give me a second glance
Now you can't take your eyes off of me as I rise
Yeah, this is my chance

[Verse 3: jules]

I see you there lookin’ up at me
Front row, screamin’ like you ‘bout to attack me
But I’mma keep on looking right through you like glass
Tried to throw me off, try harder next time, you could kiss my …

Cause I been waiting for this all my life
Said I couldn’t do it, but I knew they weren’t right
I see them now, they doubted me in the past
But this is where I’m meant to be, yeah, I’m home at last
Oh, I’m takin' my chance
