Progression ’16 Lyrics by Roo Nostalgia

2016

[Verse 1]
I'm hoping for the moments that come
I'm aiming straight for the sun
That means I'm tryna shine, I will and I gotta grind
For me and myself, my family and they health
The people watching me grow
They know I'm close to the wealth, I can taste it
Swear to God I been pacing, but I dont feel like I'm chasing
I feel like I'm winning, niggas playing pole position
Selling they souls for hoes and hit records
I just need a rider, some shows, and more blessings
I'm real
At least the realest you'll find
You out here wasting your time if you been looking for it
That's another story
I been chasing glory and taking shots, Robert Horry
I seen the top from a scope
I hope they throw out a rope for brothas like me
Brothas like us, dreaming on the bank
Yeah I seen satan, nigga strapped but he shooting blanks
I never ducked on an empty shell
Won't you tell him "hi" on your highway to hell..
[Bridge]
Cause I'm up
I been up
Its been us
So just trust me, And I'll trust you
[Verse 2]
It's never greener grass once you let the seasons pass
All lawns got snakes in em, spraying venom
No metaphor where that came from
Tired of playing dumb
I just hope my plane comes so I can get back to the slums
Back to the ground I was birthed
Took a trip 'round the Earth just to see what it's like
Just to see what it's worth
I'm tryna give me life, that's why I put in this work
No more L's, just album sales and fairytales
Stories to tell when I'm up speaking getting my awards
Like we was scheming on the floors, now we in the stores
Bumping in the speakers of a world tryna prosper
I spit what's on my dome, and it's glowing like a chakra
I've grown since the start, imma shoot for the stars
Like they said when we was young
And now they treat us like we dumb
Because we got goals and dreams
I sold mines for C.R.E.A.M
This whole time we been digging graves not gold mines nigga
Digging graves not gold mines nigga
Graves not gold mines nigga
[Interlude]
So what happens when the sun don't shine no more
So what happens when the world ain't mine no more
So what happens when I can't find my own soul..
(Repeat 1x)
