Optimist Lyrics by Banwo

2020

Hook (Banwo)

I done came up, fuc** the opposition
Remember I ain't had not Pot to piss in
Niggas looked at me like I was different
Had my name spelled wrong the whole semester
Now my name everywhere cause i'm an Optimist
On a Pi’erre beat, this shit hit different
Numbers going up, like a mathematician
And all my niggas, speak in pigeon

Verse 1 (Banwo)

Ay’
Mom made a man from a different cloth really
I ain't never stood around looking around for the Bit****
I was on my grind like a Tony Hawk picture
Tryna hit the mill ticket and go feed up all my family
Niggas got 5, I got like 10 senses
Red eyes, but the vision 20/20
When I walked by, she said I was quite sexy
Bought a bag nigga and we skirt off in a Bently
I ain’t got time, just got shit to say
On a rainy day, who had your back that day?
Couldn't walk in mile in the shoes I lace
I done put it on the line for some other folk sake
Tryna help out, I went and got betrayed
Now my heart cold, that’s what my girl be saying
Banwo, i'm just tryna be a savior
No one made me, I cannot blame me

Hook (Banwo)

I done came up, fuc** the opposition
Remember I ain't had not Pot to piss in
Niggas looked at me like I was different
Had my name spelled wrong the whole semester
Now my name everywhere cause i'm an Optimist
On a Pi’erre beat, this shit hit different
Numbers going up, like a mathematician
And all my niggas speak in pigeon

Verse 2 (Banwo)

I'm a champion, slash captain
When it comes to work, i'm the most active
When it comes to fye, i'm the one they asking
Anything you need, i'm the one, better tap in
Mastered this shit, but I just got my bachelors
Tryna touch your soul, why I stared rapping
Chains and cars, they come with the passion
Money and hoes, thats just for bragging
Never would I ever thought that I would make it this far
Something like the alchemist, the way I just explore
Do this with a passion, cause the music bring me joy
I was a hurt child, but I knew that I was more

Hook (Banwo)

I done came up, fuc** the opposition
Remember I ain't had not Pot to piss in
Niggas looked at me like I was different
Had my name spelled wrong the whole semester
Now my name everywhere cause i'm an Optimist
On a Pi’erre beat, this shit hit different
Numbers going up, like a mathematician
And all my niggas, speak in pigeon

Verse 3 (Banwo)

Pull up in a drop top car
You couldn't be my boy, unless you got me this far
Going straight to the top charts, yea too the top charts my nigga on God
Believe myself, I had the vision, Speak this shit into existence
Shot for the stars, and what came back, a star eclipse
Nigga, im on my way up, get piad up
Yea i'm on fire, looking for that shawty thats gone be my rider
I done gave them everything, I done went supplied them
Now it's just my turn to live this yeaaaa

Hook (Banwo)

I done came up, fuc** the opposition
Remember I ain't had not Pot to piss in
Niggas looked at me like I was different
Had my name spelled wrong the whole semester
Now my name everywhere cause i'm an Optimist
On a Pi’erre beat, this shit hit different
Numbers going up, like a mathematician
And all my niggas speak in pigeon
