Shoot 4 The Sky

[Intro]
Don't know where I'm at
I'm standing at the back
And I'm tired of waiting
Waiting here in line
Hoping that I find
What I've been chasing

[Verse 1 : Doms Gauge]
I'm in the back of line and I'm patient
But I'm really getting tired of waiting
My mind has been racing
'Cause what I have been chasing
Is finally mine for the taking
But every time that I aim for the sky
I just end up right back here
In the same place that I was last year
I just wanna make change like a cashier
But they're saying that's weird
Change, we don't need that
My old friends all wanna hold me back
Back in the day it was "listen to the homie rap"
Now its "oh Doms he's whack"
Give me fake handshakes and phony daps
Then they go on facebook and they find me and add me
They pretend that they're fine and they're happy
But really in the end they're just trying to drag me (down)
They want me to be stuck on the ground
So they can laugh at me like crusty the clown
But I've been thru the ups and the downs
And I've had enough of it now
I ain't fucking around
I'ma blow everything up in this town
Till its ashes and dust
See I've had to adjust
To the lack of the trust in this world
The passion and lust for these girls
Trapped in a rut
Doing what I gotta do to survive
So I see thru the truth and the lies
Don't know where I'm headed but I'm soon to arrive
I'ma give it all I got never losing my pride
I ain't gonna let em chew me alive
Shove me to the back and then move me aside
They want me on the bottom but I'm choosing to fly
So I aim for the stars and I shoot for the sky

[Hook]
I shot for the sky
I'm stuck on the ground
So why do I try
I know I'm gonna fall down
I thought I could fly
So why did I drown
Never know why it's coming down, down, down

[Verse 2 : Doms Gauge]
Down I fall but my skull isn't cracked
I take two steps forward and they pulling me back
I'm tryna make the cut but my knife's dull and its flat
So they picking on the kid like a bully in class
They can't fully adapt
So they say that its hopeless
And I'll never see the day it approaches
But I got my head up in the game and I'm focused
Shooting for the sky and I pray that I don't miss
Yeah the sky is the limit
But they tell you otherwise and advise you to listen
I don't wanna be the same I decide to be different
So the people say I'm bugging like a fly in the kitchen
Who knows how long that my time will be ticking
But as long as I'm alive and I'm kicking
You ain't blinding my vision
My eyes on the prize and the ribbon
So I'm given my all in the lines that I've written (down)
Still I'm down in the drain
With some bad habits that are drowning my pain
Tryna rise up to clouds I'ma aim
But my feet feel stuck so the ground I remain
Wow what a shame
It's falling apart
But all of my heart
Gets involved in my art
I ain't gonna curl up and die or crawl to the dark
I was told to stand tall from the start
So I try to keep positive
Even though this pit we in seems bottomless
It's all gone to shit
I lost my grip
Of the wheel and mind went along with it
But I'm confident
I got a lot to give
I can taste it, I've waited so long for this
So I went up to the edge of the tallest cliff
Looked up to the sky and then shot for it

[Hook]

[Bridge : Doms Gauge]
I'm losing my mind
I've been running in place
I'm gonna shoot for the sky
Take me up and away x2

[Verse 3 : Doms Gauge]
If life gives you a hand then play your cards right
It can get hectic up in a second like a bar fight
And it might leave a bigger wound than a shark bite
Tryna shine like a bright star on a dark night
Never coming down , I'ma stand so tall
Head up in the clouds, hoping that I don't fall
But if I leave and you never get a phone call
Shit, it was to nice know y'all
