[Intro]
(Today I let my fears go)
Yeah
Turn me up a little bit more
(Lettin’ all of my fears go)
Aight i’m ready
[Verse 1]
First of all being second's out of the question
Get the cream like Wu Tang yeah that’s the method man for some elation
Cause where I’m from we never felt it
Trynna stay afloat like Phelps
I spit the truth just like the Celtic
Bitch I’m living with anxiety, one side of me know better days are comin’
Next day the other side say no better days are comin’
Both days I try my best to do my best
We some pawns in this game trynna be kings this is chess
Will I will I get out the hood and live out my dreams?
Things ain’t always what they seem
Just cause it glitter don’t mean that it’s gold
Fuck it as long as the grass is green
And by grass I mean all the money I’ll be touchin’
Used to be the one they diss now I’m the topic of discussion
What a life, tables turn dog yeah that’s word to Phife
I was the joke, now they want no smoke like they was out the cyph
They felt that line like it was in braille
Like respiration we in hell
But I could never fold I would I would never
Fold no
[Chorus]
Today’s the day I (I)
Spread my wings I (I)
Let go let go let go let go of (let go)
These fears that hold me back
Won’t hold me back no more
[Verse 2]
Fuck you think I rap for? To push a fucking RAV4
Dreams too big I need to be on a rap tour
But need no birds around me cause I’m chasing this bread
Don’t give me headaches bitch I just want some head in a Wraith
Then I’m goin’ ghost Hamlet, dammit! I been on
A mission trynna go soo far it got me so far gone
Stress is in my brain, tryin’ hard to stay sane
I’m goin’ to the max daily just so ya could feel the pain see I
Had hoop dreams that never unfolded it turned me the coldest and made me focus
Hiphop, you saved my life, I saw the light, all through the plight see I would write, and that’ll make everything right
Couldn’t be Jordan, but I know I could ball with the mic
What if I ball and fall for the hype?
Probly get jaded, I’ll try to evade it by trynna get faded, I’m all in my feels
Want a mill, want a deal
But when things get blurry I just hope that Jesus grab the wheel
And my last wish I hope I never lose touch of what’s real yeah
[Chorus]
Today’s the day I (I)
Spread my wings I (I)
Let go let go let go let go of (let go)
These fears that hold me back
Won’t hold me back no more
[verse 3]
As I write this rhyme I’m asking God for a sign
And I’m praying for my niggas on the corner dishing dimes like they
Running the point, but, they ain’t really hoopin’ we livin’ in destitution
Living with poor conditions that make us make poor decisions and lead to more convictions
Niggas blind got no vision
I’m in the cut like incision just
Dreamin’ on the low (dreamin’ on the low)
Schemin’ on the low (schemin’ on the low)
Prayin’ for my city (prayin’ prayin’)
Feel I gotta go
I’m thirsty for something that’s deeper than power and pussy and weed
Media portray it like it’s all we need then it’s all we dream about
I’m a victim too, I’m addicted to, blue faces, new places, never high enough (damn), go hard but never try enough (damn)
It’s never enough but it’s all in my mind
I’m feeling confined
Thinking if I’m gonna shine, thinking if I’m gonna climb
Na, I’m gonna climb! This shit is all in my mind, this shit is all in my this shit is all in my
Vick told me keep on going that the stars align
That we could skate up out the hood but it’s all in the grind yeah
