- Intro -
Ladies an gentleman...
Everybody please put your hands in the air
Wave em' around like you just dont care, haha
Umm... don't get too crazy now that ladies pregnant right there
But please put your hands together
For the amazing Bra- eh who am I kidding
Welcome to the show
- Verse 1 -
Yo, yo, yo, uh, Imagination's running wild
I've dreamed of doing this ever since I was a child
Writing down the lyrics from my head here on this notepad
Taking pics and send them to my friends, I call that Kodak
It's too bad that I will probably never make it big
I always spend countless weeks just tryna find a gig
Some of you fucking rappers don't have a single clue
If I ever make it big, I got one thing to ask of you
- Hook -
Clap for me, clap for me, I'm on the rise
Bottom to the top like eyes for the morning sky
Couldn't drop from this height even if I tried
Elevated mindset is resting at immortal highs
Even so, I'm tied to these warning signs
Fighting vertigo as I guide through a war inside
Clap for me, clap for me, motherfucker
Haha, yeah, I'm on the rise
- Verse 2 -
One day, I wanna own a Lamborghini
Cruise around town all day and smoke the best weed
Smoke out my place until I can't see a damn thing
That's the future for me, that's what I foresee
And another thing, my girl should live like a queen
I want her to be happy and to have no worries
Even though we argue, my Mom should be happy
Pay her back for all the long years that she raised me
So everybody listening, just feel the vibe
Put your lighters in the sky, light a blunt, and get high
A year ago I never thought that I would follow my dream
Still trying to be cooler than a tub of ice cream
But I realize that I don't ever have to change
Just wanna appeal to the kids so I make it in the game
I may not have the look of all these others rappers
But if I got the skill then why does that really matter?
- Bridge 1 -
I just wanna be a success
I wanna live life good, no stress
I don't wanna be depressed
I wanna live life good, no stress
So would ya?
- Hook -
Clap for me, clap for me, I'm on the rise
Bottom to the top like eyes for the morning sky
Couldn't drop from this height even if I tried
Elevated mindset is resting at immortal highs
Even so, I'm tied to these warning signs
Fighting vertigo as I guide through a war inside
Clap for me, clap for me, motherfucker
Haha, yeah, I'm on the rise
- Verse 3 -
Where I'm from it's hard to make a name for yourself
Especially when you can't get any sort of help
A lot of you rappers have some sort of connection
And I'm just showing this microphone some aggression
And no I'm not jealous, I'm just a little pissed off
Cause all I do is work while you make a quick buck
You and your whole crew look like a bunch of asses
Why don't you dudes just fucking go back to Kansas
- Bridge 2 -
Anyways, I just wanna get drunk and get high
Have a good time, fine wine, fuck a price
Anything you ever wanted I'd go out and buy
Pay my rent for the whole entire year twice
Drive around the world, see the big city lights
Make strides and create a couple allies
Sleeping all day and staying up all night
Gonna keep doing that till the day I die
- Verse 4 -
Maybe one day that's the life I will live
Been dreaming bout that ever since I was a kid
Every hater tells me that I really don't belong
But I don't give a damn so they can get fucked
Fuck a 9 to 5, I already work everyday
Cause when my pen hits the pad I'ma get paid
As of right now that's just a fantasy
I'm just in a state of plain ecstasy
So now everybody knows the kid from the lac
Used to treat me bad cause I was an outcast
But now you all love me just because I can rap
Not sure who to trust and that makes me kinda sad
I don't know my direction so I think I need a map
Cause I haven't changed much so what did I lack?
Anyways, that's a wrap
Once again, all I ask is for you to clap
