[Verse]
I don't wanna waste you time, I understand that you mess up, yes I do too
I just want to forget all these lies (forget about 'em)
We gotta keep moving forward all because, girl I love ya
But my best friend keeps on tugging my ear
Saying you gotta be kidding dude
This gotta be the fifteenth breakup fool
No worries, we're meant for each other
I'm about to propose to my lover
I'm just here tryna' rescue you
Her response is not gon' really be that cool
Whatever, baby will you marry me
(Boy bye, you ain't got no money. Ha! I tried to tell ya)
[Pre-Hook]
Well I was warned about her, friends screamed and shouted
Telling me all that she wanted was the dollar
Using me up girl, draining my wallet, money's like a bad drummer, can't stay in the pocket
She left for a superstar no doubt about it
I think this dude plays basketball for the Rockets (Are you serious? Yeah dog that's kinda messed up)
Well this is how it all begins at the bottom
[HOOK]
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
[Verse 2]
I can see myself, day to day, about ten years away from here
Providing for my family, doing what I love not taking it for granted
Cuz' sometimes I get a afraid don't take the steps to make my dreams align with me
Gotta force fear into silence, quitting I straight up denied it
Cuz' I never know who I can affect, can't focus on myself, all the time
Try to focus on my neighbor, show em love regardless of the flesh
Shaded in many colors but I choose to be blind to the exterior of the character
The heart's what I examine, tryna stray from them carriers
You know them carriers who find a way in yo' book bag, whatever you're carrying
The goal is to carry it off, no explaining kid (That's how it always starts)
[Pre-Hook]
Hey young scholar, let me hold a dollar, got some news that'll make you wanna holla'
Forget your problems cuz son they ain't nodda' (Wait a minute, dude took my lava lamp man)
Broke man tryna give another broke man advice, on how to service his own solution, like you got it alright
Man look here, here's a dollar for believing your knowledge is power (Dialogue)
Yo I just asked for a dollar
Well this is how it looks when you start from the bottom//
[HOOK]
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Ooh it's signing day, it's signing day, this is the day I might sign my whole life away
This is the day I might sign my eyesight away, every moral deplorable and the power to make a difference
Defending men and women with purpose with demons lurking
Tryna live right but dang, shawty here twerkin'
Temptation never sleeps like a heart full of life
It's hard to keep that thang' on a leash, won't go down without a fight
Can't own this soul ain't your property (no)
I rather go broke than live silently
Fast money is ash money, I ain't tryna look bummy
It would be funny like trying to tease a vicious Pooh with honey
Sell the soul for a mill', lets make a deal partner, I can help you pay some bills
Wait, that's all I'm really worth to you suckers
I got homies out on the street to show love to (And here's a major part)
God's who I follow, can't start without Him
If I ain't makin' progress I don't front about it
Grinding hard, gotta pay the bills, make the profit
I'm trying to make these moves lets get it poppin'
Good God almighty, I get so excited to share with the people so ready to get to vibin'
I will never ever forget where I came from
To get to the top gotta start from the bottom
(HOOK)
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wanana
