Artist Aspirations Lyrics by Afro Dope

#SafeKeeping2

2020

[Hook]
Knew I would be a star / I could see from afar / I just had to go hard / Poker face with my cards
Started off was subpar / Now I ball like mon star / I don't need no gun bar / I signal like sonar
[Verse 1]
Artist aspirations, it started as conversation I wanted to be the greatest, embracing like all the hating / The fall off it had em waiting, they starting to get impatient, my privacy they invading, situation escalating
1 in a million chance that I would make it out / So many discouraged me and said just take a different route / But I still stayed in the lane ain't no swerving out / So when I arrive at success want me to turn around
That's rhetorical / Your mindset is horrible /
I copy wrote this game, so no it ain't portable /
Don't try me cause these lawsuits affordable / Sugar mamas always say that I'm adorable
Jump start investment / Never been arrested
During high school I was battle rap tested
Hip hop infected I got it congested / Gift when I show up my presence a present
[Hook]
Knew I would be a star / I could see from afar / I just had to go hard / Poker face with my cards
Started off was subpar / Now I ball like mon star / I don't need no gun bar / I signal like sonar
[Verse 2]
Artist aspirations, wanna grammy nomination, I'm leading a generation cause it is an obligation / Surpass internet sensation, real life entertainment / Never forced from the jump but I still have awakened/
It shows you ain't neva skid bled on the pavement/ Lesson from the pain that's equivalent exchanging / Mumble rap craze sometimes it gets draining / Soul is in these raps and im only maintaining/ Only time I get to vent this my safe haven / Fans don't judge me when it get ugly / Criticizing roughly as if they are above me / At the end of the day I can say I'm lucky
I know I'm blessed don't confuse it with the stress / When it's not enough after putting forth your best and you vexed / Assuming that it's a hex / You said that you got next / I don't take you as a threat / Coming right out the west side
[Hook]
Knew I would be a star / I could see from afar / I just had to go hard / Poker face with my cards
Started off was subpar / Now I ball like mon star / I don't need no gun bar / I signal like sonar
