Be Great Lyrics by AlphaPatron

0

Verse 1:

And I be working late nights on my laptop
I'm trying to innovate the game it's my blacktop
I got the city right behind me like a backdrop
Cause I be grinding and shining behind the back lot
They told me to me that my music wasn't good enough
I used to live for their approval when I had enough
Now it's fuel to the fire for me to light it up
Because whatever they say, it's not stopping me
They proud of me
It's ought to be
The God in me
I wasn't ever nominee
Got enemies, they try to stop my legacy
They envy me
Their friends but they pretend to be
I can't sleep until my music makes it number one
They said I'm odd, cause it's odd to be number one
I got to shoot my shot like if it's one on one
I ain't celebrating nothing until the deal is done

Chorus:
I got to get it for real, won't stop until I got it
When you go get it it's real
I had to take it on the road
Had to take it on the road
Hit the gas on the floor
Can't go with the motions, Got to keep it going
I gotta go, that's no cap


Verse 2:
If you got a dream, then you gotta keep it
Sometimes your dream is better left a secret
For me they probably still won't ever want to see a
Black boy king of Seattle, you know I'm trying to be it
I'm grinding everyday nonstop
I'm chasing the dream, like it's my full time job
Yeah I drop track, drop school but it's for a purpose
I'm so determined and focus to be the best for certain
Slept in the car, I couldn't get a motel
I'd rather have a pen than a pastel
Oh well, ring the bell, time will tell
I'll rather be in a jail cell, then rot in hell
Unpredictable moves just like a boxer
I'm protecting my goal as if I'm playing soccer
Is hip hop alive? I think it needs a doctor
Cause all these rappers be acting, trying to get an Oscar
