American Cotton
(专辑: Kaleidoscope - 2014)
I'm about that progress I'm about that progress Never look back, naw, that's Full of mall rats I'm appalled at Full of all whack shit I'm beyond like an action Figure in a
pixar flick from the
past I'm addict To betterment like a
bubblegum package I'm like the
kid doing crack in the
back Of his stepdad's attic, too young to be into that shit, gotta be active Gotta go outside, and I'm yelling why I'm trynna build a
motherfucking empire So what that I
miss a
couple calls It's been a
couple months and I
said it'd be tomorrow My brother tells me that I
gotta call mom And I
tell 'em that I
will when I
get a
new home for her And I
get dad in a
brand new porche And I
get me living in New York In a
flat with a
view of the
park And chick with an ass like a
peach from my orchard in Florida That'll be a
minute And I'll see you then and When I
do, you'll give thanks like I'm deity So leave me be I'm cooler than a
blank TV screen Or a
pool up in jamaica, feet up You're telling me it's dog eat dog, yea, I
eat 'em You're telling me to go out, you're telling me to meet up I'm telling' you no and I
got my reasons I've got shit to do and what I'm living through Is yeah, a
little bit like a
prison, dude But that's what it is, you become what you give If you give your all, than you gain all of it, yeah I've been working for a
while The
sun was burning bright, now it's behind the
moon I
wonder what tomorrow holds I'll make it out here, I
promise you I've been working for a
while The
sun was burning bright, now it's behind the
moon I
wonder what tomorrow holds I'll make it out here, I
promise you You're about that progress I
was about that progress You're about that progress I
was about that progress You gotta stop that young gun You gotta go see your mom some You can dream, don't stop them But don't go picking all their cotton Said my grandpa to me I
said, naw, who we Gonna be if we don't get our hands all dirty I'ma work hard, even if it hurts, sorry I'ma keep it going 'till I
get a
ferrari And I
can't slow like I'm on speed in a
bus On an earth spinning around like me when I'm drunk And I'm feinding to fuck, so Get out of my way I
can't afford to lose an hour a
day, I
don't Got time for Dumb shit, I
don't Got time for Friendship, I
don't Got time For first kisses 'Cause if I
see opportunity than I'll miss it See, I'm bleeding for this shit It's me with a
vision It's me with a
pot cooking crack in the
kitchen I'ma stop when the
cops shoot the
back of my spine Or shoot the
side of my eyes and hit the
nerves behind 'em Or I'm murdered, I'm not stoppable So I'll probably come back as some type of ghoul And keep going as a
poltergeist, I'm a
fool I
guess, for working for something that might not come true But that's what it's all about Some want love, some want keys to house As big as a
mountain, living amounts to How you spend your milliseconds and your minutes and hours I've been working for a
while The
sun was burning bright, now it's behind the
moon I
wonder what tomorrow holds I'll make it out here, I
promise you I've been working for a
while The
sun was burning bright, now it's behind the
moon I
wonder what tomorrow holds I'll make it out here, I
promise you
