Passports Lyrics by Buddy Ryan

Drifts EP

2016

[Intro: Les Brown]
I don’t know what that dream is that you have
I don’t care how disappointing it might have been
As you have been working toward that dream
That that dream that you are holding in your mind
That it’s possible

[Verse 1]
I see my passport more than I see my past friends
Will the love still flow when the cash ends?
Guess it's true, you could really touch dreams
People ask how you do it, I tell 'em I'm trustin' myself
I keep an angel on my shoulder
Candles for the mood, sit the Henny on the coaster
Took an empty bottle, wrote a message I could float ya'
If you're speakin' for your culture, even your haters quote ya'
The sheep might GOAT ya'
All in due timin', sublime rhymin'
With that guy Buddy Ryan
Spit shinin', help you see the silver linin'
You could have the talent, ain't shit without the timin'
And I don't read from no spiritual book
I write a spiritual hook, I'm a lyrical cook
Figured I should make you jam, instead of making a jux
Wear my crown in my eyes, you can see when I look (look)
Tally marks and battle scars and bruises
I beat odds, split cigars to ruins
I lost fam, I made fans my choosin'
Success came, but it's love I keep losin'
Ironic, 'cause I could tell you 'bout them nights
That we didn't have lights
No wind to fly my kite
No air to ride my bike
No role models in sight
Just gold bottoms and ice
We struggled and that was life
But God blessed my heart
Let it show in my art
Poetry to lift pain, medicine for the madness
No matter who prove rank
No matter who stack bank
In a all black beamer bumpin' Coldplay or Chinx
That's length for my Cuban link
'Cause you can get rich off the type of shit you think
And life move fast, it can change in a blink
Had a devil on my shoulder, I replaced it with a mink
