One Below - Domo Genesis

When I talk about my son

I get overjoyed with emotion

But I feel empowered

Because, I tell you

When I first looked into his eyes

I knew he would be something special

He was so bright and so funny at the same time

I said there would be a day

When I would share him with the world

I just didn’t know when

And that day has come, it’s now

And I couldn’t be more happy for him

I’m so proud

He’s something special and I’m glad

He’s getting a chance to show you what he is

Because I saw it a long time ago

I got you, no matter what

I’m there for you

And, no matter what obstacles come your way

Always remember that you are gonna be you

And no one else can take that away from you

Remember that the stars and the sky is the limit

And once you reach those, you keep going

Just keep going and never look back

Because it belongs to you, it’s your time

And I would always say that to you

Just always reach for the stars

So, I want you to know that I’m always gonna be

The wind underneath your wings

I’m gonna be the water underneath your bridge

I’m gonna be the bullet in your Glock

If you know what I mean

That means that I just got you, no matter what

So reach for the stars, as I always tell you

Spread your wings and sore

Bye-bye baby boy, time for lift off

Still floating through the city like my uncle’s ghost

Give him a glimpse at who they love the most

I’m blunted, whoever they wanted, I ain’t running no from nothing

The blood that my heart is pumping is one below

Play this game, knowing it’s repercussions

Took some losses, see where I faulted

And learned some lessons from it

My momma say I must be blessed or something

The same gift that got me paper, I be stressing from it

Remember jumping in cribs, thinking what drawn in rims

It wasn’t all BT but this is just how I live

See, I’mma take all their mines, if they got nothing to give

The lack of inspiration had me chasing broken ideas

See, I was aggravated, blind, pacing

My mind unaware,

That being lost would be the place that I would find my ideas

I was a shoe fit, rude, lucrative, new little nigga

I been through the blues groove

What couldn’t you do to a nigga?

From what we had, this looks beautiful, nigga

If it had to end today, I’d ask Krit to save room for a nigga

My life story gotta be worth somebody’s time

This much weed, I need to breathe

Keeping my lungs on the line

Don’t kill the vibe, I just begun to unwind

If they don’t let me free my mind, then fuck it

I’ll be comfortable dying

This hustle, only thing I knew from the start

All alone, singing this song in my heart

I will survive

We are so far

We are so

We are so far to go

I feel so lost

We are so far to go

We are so far

I feel so lost

I feel so lost

And I wear my heart on my sleeves

It’s been a while since I felt like I was part of a team

Feeling so apart, just trying to stay a part of this league

You weather-heavy pressure, y’all fall apart, at the seems from

I see why my grandfather drinking that Seagram’s

'Cause life ain’t easy, remember momma had to scream it

And caught two buses to take her son

To get the teachers, then hopped on another to graduate

At some seeing some

House, still working job, fortunately we eating

So telling me I can’t?

Fuck him, I can’t believe it

'Cause I never thought a million years

Would bring us to this region

Lost a couple on the ride but my focus still on the leading

Never thought me finding me would distance me from the team, shit

And no matter what we grow through, I love you dudes

I mean it

Smoking on that green, 'cause the path ain’t always scenic

Learn from where I lack at, 'cause nobody’s a genius

It’s just some shit you gotta say, I’ll break your heart in pieces

Trying to bottle it, call my own path, I don’t follow shit

So far to go and feeling out of it

If this what comes from being lost, then I’m proud of it

Oh, oh

I feel so lost

Why we gotta go so far?

Why we gotta go so far?

Hey

Why we gotta go so far?

Oh, oh

Hey, hey, hey

Got so, got, got, got, got so far to go

Hey
