[Intro]
Again
This couldn’t happen again
This is that once in a lifetime
But never never
[Verse 1]
Look
I pray to God if that’s what it takes
You ain’t got no dreams? Damn what a waste
I need just a taste
Struggling to run the race
I don’t plan on dying yet but I’ma hustle just in case
That’s why I give it the most
Speed it up, I got Ritalin flows
Witcha bitch then I hit it and go
Heart cold like Michigan snow
It’s crunch time now, cinnamon toast, whoa
I used to roll up mad blunts
Went to college for a year but didn’t go to class once
I was in my dorm making beats through the night
Writing rhymes burning trees through the pipe
Had these dreams in my sights
Dreams of headline acts
Dreams of “don’t blink twice if I spend five racks”
If I don’t take a chance I’ll regret my past
But if I waste 10 years I can’t get time back, that’s facts
That’s a lot to take in
Had a lot of long nights with a lot of straight gin
Met a lot of fake people with a lot of fake grins
Took a lot of wrong turns now I wish I stayed in
And wrote a little more
I burned enough bridges now I’m opening some doors
If I got a new chick then I hope it isn’t forced
If I got a new whip then I’m hopin’ it’s a Porsche
I’d go straight to the fast lane
Hit the gas give my ass whiplash pain
Women in my future doing bad thangs
While women from my past change last names, damn
This that once in a lifetime though
Real talk like a Lifetime show
Flip the script I’ma write my own
You can’t bite my flow
True story this the life I chose
[Outro]
What you ain’t got dreams homie?
You ain’t got dreams?
You ain’t got dreams homie?
