Don't Look Back

It was never like "When I grow up I'mma be a rapper Make hits for new school and backpackers Get chicks and rap magazine covers Sell out shows, the whole scene love us" It was more like Good grades, hoopin' Free time out in the driveway shootin' Live for the summertime Wake up, nothing to do? Go to sleep, do it another time But time moved on and we reminisced Like "remember that?" or "remember this?" Living in the past wasn't cutting it Saw it coming and I had to get in front of it Committed to the task now Built it from the ground up Took a leap of faith, never lookin' back down Fought it everyday, still do Scared of what'll happen if this shit fall through All my dreams could be gone in an instant How did I let it all slip away? Hell no Oh my damn, this that shit Don't look back, I don't miss that shit Oh my damn, this that shit Don't look back, I don't miss that shit Oh my damn, this that shit Don't look back, I don't miss that shit Oh my damn, this that shit Don't look back It's not easy, nobody believe me I said I would drive, nobody gave the keys to me Push, everybody got two pennies though Every rapper got a Bentley and a centerfold Crib down in South Beach, hundred thousand dollar chain I just wanna eat good, I just wanna rock J's They don't hear me though, let me say it loud "Look, Mom, Dad, I'm a rapper, aren't you proud?" I'mma break the mold though Childhood gang name, same damn logo we started with Look where we are with it I pack everything I own in my car and split They can talk but they can't say shit to me, that shit don't get to me Need this pen that I write with to get me the right side of history Ain't no way we fallin' off now Put your hands in the sky tonight Ain't no way we fallin' off now Say the word and we ride tonight Ain't no way we fallin' off now Put your hands in the sky tonight Ain't no way we fallin' off now Say the word and we ride tonight Don't look back, don't look back Oh my damn, this that shit Don't look back, I don't miss that shit Oh my damn, this that shit Don't look back, I don't miss that shit Oh my damn, this that shit Don't look back, I don't miss that shit Oh my damn, this that shit Don't look back
