Lyrics
Arguing with my mother on how she think I should be,
Expressing disagreement with mother's expectations on how he should be.
It made me feel like I wasn’t worthy of chasing dreams,
Feeling unworthy of pursuing dreams due to disagreements with his mother.
She worried bout my future say I should be more like Flvm3,
Mother concerned about the future, suggests emulating someone in the military.
Cause he went to the military and took care family,
Referring to Flvm3, who went to the military and took care of family.
See I was tryna find my way hard knock life,
Struggling through a difficult life, searching for direction.
Lucky it’s not a phone call from a cell block,
Avoiding a negative call from prison, grateful for not being in that situation.
Young niggas toating glocks all I need was a couple milli,
Desiring financial success despite challenges and risks in the environment.
But the older that you get the more they negate yo feelings,
As one ages, others tend to dismiss or invalidate one's emotions.
Move with precision and understand that they won’t see the vision,
Emphasizing the importance of precision and understanding in pursuing goals.
You feel un sturdy with obstacles make a pivot young nigga,
Encouraging adaptability when faced with obstacles.
Time flies like you lookin up when and taking a test,
Time passes quickly, comparing life to taking a test.
And the assessment is making it through life without death,
Life's assessment is navigating it without succumbing to death.
I pray to god when I feel like I’m battling self no response but the feelings was there,
Praying during internal battles, seeking guidance from a higher power.
I hope you hear,
Expressing hope that the message is heard.
When I tell you that it’s all love,
Assuring that love is the driving force behind actions.
They jaws drop when they seeing that you came up but not us,
Noting the surprise of others when witnessing success.
Friends got lost and the brand got stronger weaving through the nonsense with the world on my shoulders,
Overcoming challenges and negativity, strengthening personal brand.
Some won’t me to fail but I still prevail this is the cycle of finding out your purpose yoself,
Highlighting the recurring cycle of discovering one's purpose amidst challenges.
Young black man focus on just bettering self,
Encouraging self-improvement for young black men.
Feelings on top shelf,
Emphasizing the significance of emotions and self-awareness.
Mane I ain’t even talk to family at times veah know,
Isolating from family at times, possibly due to disagreements or personal reasons.
Chasity dropped gems when she was thirteen years old,
Chasity's wise advice at a young age to be truthful in music.
She told me not to lie onna track and just speak the truth,
Feelings are genuine and raw when expressing oneself in the recording booth.
That’s why feelings ooze whenever I’m in the booth,
Encouraging perseverance, as the sky is just the beginning of possibilities.
Head up nigga the sky ain’t the limit it’s the first stop,
Emphasizing the importance of a successful plan in life.
And if you had a plot just make sure it Neva flop,
A reminder to ensure that plans are executed successfully.
The people onna outside can’t tell what’s in,
People can't see one's true self, and seeking answers requires personal introspection.
And yes the knowledge that you seek they can’t answer my friend,
Knowledge sought is beyond what others can provide.
Plot twist now the block flip,
A change in circumstances leads to a new opportunity.
Cause you ain’t figured how you finna get some profit,
Failure to plan for profit leads to setbacks.
You not shit what tell you if you not rich,
Reflection on societal values and the importance placed on wealth.
Inside a cycle you can’t beat use yo mind jit,
Advising to use intellect within the cyclical nature of life.
And take yo time with yo passion for you drop it,
Encouraging patience and careful consideration of one's passions.
No comparison just focus on assignments,
Emphasizing the uniqueness of individual assignments and tasks.
And everything else reveal itself time shid,
Time reveals the significance of everything, be patient.
I seal the letter then I send another kite in
Sending messages, possibly metaphorical, to connect with others.
Friends got lost and the brand got stronger weaving through the nonsense with the world on my shoulders,
Reiterating the strengthening of personal brand amidst challenges.
Some won’t me to fail but I still prevail this is the cycle of finding out your purpose yoself,
Reflecting on the continuous cycle of self-discovery and purpose.
Young black man focus on just bettering self,
Encouraging young black men to focus on self-improvement.
