Wanna Be

I swear these niggas don't want shit with me I pull more strings Than a symphony Must be kin to uncle ben Cuz I heat up instantly In this world tryna find myself And tryna make it I hope my momma understand these chances that I'm taking When it's in your blood You can't choose not to chase it My friends mad Cuz they don't understand that Plus all these Spotify streams Don't always equal mad cash So I got this lil dollar and this dream I droppped outta school and And put lil Weezy on repeat See I'm gon fuck this world I hope she ready for me Mentality I need To face the shit I'm going thru You hating on me Now you ignoring you Cuz we just want our own little slice of the good life Because it's unfamiliar you infatuated with hood life I guess that's what these beats are for So fuck it we gon take advantage While they as me Hey my nigga What you wanna be A ball player or rapper Or a star on tv I say Anything but broke is cool If you ask me Ask me So they ask me Hey my nigga What you wanna be A ball player or rapper Or a star on tv I say Anything but broke is cool If you ask me Pocket full of reasons I can't be there for my teachers Please don't tell my momma I been skipping this week I been treating Monday thru Friday like it was the weekend And spending my weekends hanging with friends and barely thinking Cuz I been all alone so long So long Back when mom and dad split apart like wish bone Riding highway five to see my mommy on a Fridays I learned how to cope by talking to myself in driveways So now I understand why I'm so misunderstood They was tryna be hard I was tryna think good Happy thoughts happy thoughts Is what I told myself All the way through adolescence Now I'm grown as fuck And find myself asking more questions Like Do the girl I love Really love me? Do the niggas that big me up Wish they was me? If I get rich as fuck And pick me and my niggas up Will they still work the same As they did when nobody bumped me? And lately happiness has been just like some bleachers closing Cuz it go up and up and up Till I can't reach or hold it But my spirit stay stronger than Niggas lifting boulders Lord take some stress off of my shoulders While they ask me Hey my nigga What you wanna be A ball player star Or a nigga on tv I say Anything but broke is cool If you ask me So they ask me Hey my nigga What you wanna be A ball player or rapper Or a star on tv I say Anything but broke is cool If you ask me Ask me So they ask me Hey my nigga What you wanna be So they ask me Hey my nigga What you wanna be So they ask me Hey my nigga What you wanna be So they ask me Hey my nigga What you wanna be I just wanna be me Say: I just wanna be free Say: I just wanna stay though Say: I just wanna lay low Say: I just wanna be me Say: I just wanna be free Say: I just wanna stay though Say: I just wanna lay low
