B.A.L.L. Lyrics by Read Richarts

0

[Verse 1]
Unh
All alone in this room countin’ seconds
According to the reverend, I should be countin’ my blessings
According to America’s standards these college lessons
Are the keys to success, if that’s true then my profession is
Who you view on the tube as just another failure
‘Cause I never walked across that stage for graduation
But I still got my paper
Document my lifestyle, everything I write down, killing everything else
Right now’s my time, won’t let nobody stop me
Not even myself, as if I’m out of body
Walkin’ ‘round wit they hands out, coming out of pocket
To deposit they two cents, as if I lost my wallet
So I can’t agree with Wallace, more money, more problems
‘Cause it’s hell on Earth, I was cursed on arrival
False prophets out to profit on your knowledge of the Bible
While you out here tryna hustle for survival

[Chorus]
Like I’m just tryna get it, I’m just tryna get it
I’m just tryna ball for it’s all said and finished
Back against the wall, if I fall, then I’m landing
Further than the point that I was when I was standing
Like I’m just tryna get it, I’m just tryna get it
I’m just tryna ball for it’s all said and finished
Knowing that tomorrow’s not promised, so I’m livin
Like any minute could be my last ‘fore I pass

[Hook]
I wanna be a livin’ legend
I wanna be a livin’ legend
Like, I just wanna ball (I just wanna ball)
I just wanna ball (I just wanna ball)
I wanna be a livin’ legend
I wanna be a livin’ legend
Like, I just wanna ball (I just wanna ball)
I just wanna ball (I just wanna ball)

[Verse 2]
Yeah
Lord forgive me for my brash delivery
But I remember vividly what these streets did to he
Consumed by the rules of the streets like
Cash rules everything around me, gotta get this cream
As I grew older, hunger grew stronger
Nuts got bigger, so my heart got colder
Sack full of stones weigh heavy on my shoulders
Backbone strong enough to carry a couple cultures but
But that don’t mean shit if you ain’t focused
On a direction even if your drive has motion
And this is how it looks when you know you got it
Feel it in your heart that you the best, but you know they doubt it
From a city where everybody’s a nobody
Til somebody kills you, niggas don’t feel you
Peers become your idols, your idols become your rivals
But you know you gotta murk ‘em for survival

[Chorus]
