[Intro: iEKNOWS]
Somewhere between living life chasing dreams
Somewhere between living life
Uh [Rick Ross grunt]
[Verse 1: iEKNOWS]
This for my niggas on the come up who grind to the sun up
I was 15 at the groove momma disapproved
But that didn't seem to stop the turn up
Every set back made me wanna turn up
So hot to the point Imma burn up
If it ain't about chasing dreams or innovative kingz
That shit don't concern us bitches try learn us
What mean the world to you
If you slept on a nigga nigga shame on you
Did what i said i came to do
When things go wrong they put the blame on you
I bet i can say a couple names or two
But what's that mean when you started from the bottom
And you learn money can't solve all of your problems
I planted money seeds and my money trees blossomed
Now I'm riding through my city reflecting on my past
Lately I've been busy I think I'm moving too fast
Told my team we could we be rich forever
Game winning shot i can feel the pressure
The same age Hov got his shit together
Trying to prove to you my beach is better
With determination dedication education
Niggas hating but to me that's
Motivation preparation inspiration
I'm close to greatness nigga face it
Right now i can't stop never running on E
Got me feelin like Pac all eyez on me
[Hook:iEKNOWS]
Somewhere between living life chasing dreams
Somewhere between living life chasing dreams
Somewhere between living life chasing dreams
Everything ain't what it seems but right now I'm in between

[Verse 2: iEKNOWS]
Bank account negative wish it was positive
Reaching out to relatives you know how it fucking is
You know how it fucking is like hoes know what fucking is
Too tall to belittle believe even got my name in the middle
I bounce right back off the floor like dribble
By the grace of God ain't shit coincidental
I've been up for some days time slipping away
Might light another jay let my mind float away
What we take for granted God always takes away
Tryna see hot 97 or sway what i got to do for my single to play
On the radio that would be crazy tho
Tryna get it down pat Tom Brady hoe
Like shady tho this is my shady flow
I've seen yeses turn into maybe so's like
Damn y'all forgot about me you unfollowed iE
Last night on twitter don't follow me nigga
That's fine by me but when I sign a deal
And this shit gets real you gonna feel how I felt times 3
Mother fucker
Ball so hard like I play at Rucker
Play at the Rucker play at the Rucker
J Boi knows I treat him like my brother
Yea that's my brother same mind different mother
Take a step back I'm doing the most
Make em Regret that they ain't respect that
Karma can be a bitch so you can expect that
[Hook:iEKNOWS]
Somewhere between living life chasing dreams
Somewhere between living life chasing dreams
Somewhere between living life chasing dreams
Everything a'int what it seems but right now I'm in between
