Nights On Fire - Solo Star

This gotta be the realest shit I ever said

Gotta make sure my roots are better fed

Ever since I put my name atop a letterhead

Been seeing situations like I read ahead

Half of me can sit and marvel at the majesty

The other half only fathoming the tragedy

Grabbing focus like I need it to survive

But even a heartbeat doesn’t mean you’re alive

Got a proposition to give up the greed or the prid

I told em give me a minut, took my leave in disguise

Drugs got they brains gone, running round wit chains on

It’s the same song, we ended up in East Side High

But these niggas couldn’t pass one test

So I know what it’s like to look around and be the last one left

Standing up on crazy joe

So they don’t wanna play me on the radio

But I mean, look how hard it made me go?

Welcome to my soul

You get the grand tour

What’s inside of me and what I stand for

No grandeur I just demand more

Because with everything I am, I know I am more

I went looking for myself and found a stranger in my place

I don’t know who sent him but they gave him my face

I see him try to mimic all the things that I say

I see him running after all the things that I chase

Standing in perpetual motion, I know perplexing

I took this shit too far for your perception to go

But stay with me baby I need you like a sexual potion

My addiction to marijuana only second to notes

They said «we drowning in the river that you sold us down

You made us dream, you gotta stay around to show us how»

They always tell me hold it down

I always say it ain’t enough to go around

So, future first born, hope your listening

There is no better trait than initiative

Life is beautiful so try to find a shit to give

But never take ya eyes off what the mission is

Welcome to my soul

You get the grand tour

What’s inside of me and what I stand for

No grandeur I just demand more

Because with everything I am, I know I am more

Welcome to my soul

You get the grand tour

What’s inside of me and what I stand for

No grandeur I just demand more

Because with everything I am, I know I am more
