a weekend in Vegas?
I'm living inside a moment,
not taking pictures to save it
I mean, how could I forget? My
memory's never faded
I can't relate to these haters,
my enemies never made it
I am
Still here with who I started with
The game needed life, I put my heart in it
I blew myself up,
I'm on some martyr shit
Carry the weight for my city
like a cargo ship, uh
I'm 23 with a money tree
Growing more too,
I just planted a hundred seeds
It's ironic 'cause my mother
was a florist
And that's how she met my pops
And now my garden is enormous
"It's happening, Penny Lane,
just like you said!"
I avoided the coke game
and went with Sprite instead
Uh huh, that's word to the millions
that they puttin' up
I'm trying to do better
than good enough
What am I afraid
of?
This is supposed to be what dreams
are made of
But people I don't have
the time to hang with
Always look at me and say the same shit
They say "you promised me
you would never change"
(Ah, oh, oh, ah, oh, oh, ah)
"You promised me you would nev
er change"
(Ah, oh, oh, ah, oh, oh, ah)
Uh Am I wrong
for making light
of my situation? Clap on?
When 40 got some shit for me to snap on,
now that I'm on
I don't really want to
worry about getting back on
I'm just trying to stay on,
get my fucking buffet on
I heard they just moved my grandmother
to a nursing home
And I be acting like I don't
know how to work a phone
But hit "redial", you'll see
that I just called
Some chick I met at the mall
that I barely know at all and
Plus this woman that I messed
with unprotected
Texted saying she wished
she would have kept it
The one that I'm lay ing next to
just looked over and read it
Man, I couldn't tell you where
the fuck my head is
I'm holding on by a thread
It's like I'm high right now,
the guy right now
And you could tell by looking
in my eyes right now
That nothing really comes
as a surprise right now
'Cause we just having the time
of our lives right now
What am I afraid of? This is supposed
to
be what dreams are made of
But people I don't have the time
to hang with
Always look at me and say
the same shit
They say "you promised me you would
never change"
(Ah, oh, oh, ah, oh, oh, ah)
"You promised me you would
never change"
(Ah, oh, oh, ah, oh, oh, ah)
Well alright
Uh
I live by some advice this girl
Lissa told me
The other day Lissa told me
that she missed the old me
Which made me question when I
went missing
And when I started treating
my friends different
Maybe it was the fast paced switch up
Or the two guns in my
face during the stick up
Maybe 'cause a girl I
thought I trusted
Was who set the whole shit up
But in fact I haven't seen them
since they locked Big Rich up
I know
But same time I'm quick to forget
I'm 'bout to roll me up a
blunt with my list of regrets
Burn it all, burn it all,
I'm starting it fresh
'Cause half the time I got
it right I probably guessed
Did I just trade free time
for camera time?
Will I blow all of this money baby,
hammer time?
Yeah, I just need some closure
Ain't no turning back for me, I'm
in it 'til it's over
