Lyrics
I been goin' through the toughest times of my life
Even though I feel like givin' up I gotta fight
Batter up, I'm ready to hit it outta the park
No strikes, make it fly like a kite, get lost in the sky
Then come back down like a meteorite
And when the sun comes down you know I'm doin' you right
I wanna love you tonight
I'll sing a song like Akon then later maybe we could get it on
Get a reservation, just us two
I hope you like this little poem that I wrote you
Baby you're a shootin' star, dream come true
And I'm so thankful that I met you, I really respect you
That makes me think about the way that we take for granted what we don't realize
Don't wanna realize it too late, I don't wanna be locked outside the gates
I don't wanna get lost in the maze
Cuz I'm already lost in some days
I need to get beyond the limits that they settin' for me
Cuz I was meant to be everything I wanna be
And that's everything
It's funny when they think they hurtin' me
Cuz I been gettin' too tired of the bulls
It's like some people just don't know when to quit
You only hit me up when you need somethin'
And when I need you I don't hear nothin'
That's why I had to learn how to depend on myself
No more askin' for help
Let the questions pile up on the shelf
They come and go like a conveyor belt
Oh well, I wish 'em well but I could never tell
So Ima say farewell, knowin' you has been so swell
No honey don't take it personal
What goes around comes back around and 'round like a roller coaster
Never gonna be over, get it together and brush it off of your shoulders
Aim to do better whenever wherever the road is takin' me
Maintaining my course, shine my light so that I can see
I don't wanna get lost in the maze
Cuz I'm already lost in some days
I need to get beyond the limits that they settin' for me
Cuz I was meant to be everything I wanna be
And that's everything
It's funny when they think they hurtin' me
I never really get to say what I wanna say
Cuz I think about it too late
I don't wanna be old later down the road regrettin' chances I didn't take
There's always gonna be another path to pave
Another route to take, another will to a way
So I can't look away or I'll miss what is made
And I fight till the day everything starts to fade
I could feel my pain surround me like rain
I could see the day when everything changed
I believe in you believing in me will be everything I need to maintain
I've had to fight for things they never gave
So I learned to be strong, not to ask for a thing
When I missed my mom I cried myself to sleep
Another new place that I knew we couldn't keep
Never had a room till I was 13
But I learned to deal and not to complain
Didn't have an iPhone, tablet, laptop, GoPro, new clothes
I just used old hand me downs
I never stuck around cuz we didn't had enough for one place
Growin' up deprived of so many things is what makes me fight for everything
So I'ma keep fightin', yea Ima keep fightin'
Growin' up deprived of so many things is what makes you fight for everything
So just keep fightin', yea keep on fightin'
I don't wanna get lost in the maze
Cuz I'm already lost in some days
I need to get beyond the limits that they settin' for me
Cuz I was meant to be everything I wanna be
And that's everything
It's funny when they think they hurtin' me
