started out with a dream, i can picture the scene
i was just a young kid thinking of schemes
my lifes goals ahead, it wasn't accidental
that i spoke on everything, never kept it instrumental
the path kept changing, every couple years
switch life, switch wife switch both of my careers
thought i'd play for the bulls, then maybe the lakers
like kobe and shaq back when they were my favorite
then i moved to the east cost and i couldn't help it
fell in love with the sox, patriots and the celtics
put my skateboard away, and I switched to the snow
i instantly froze when the winter was cold
still i kept playing ball, every minute i had
indoor, outdoor no limit to that
pick up in the summer, mini metro for fall
school team, AAU, man i went to it all

Started out ninth grade in school as the new kid
Skipped math one didn't know how to do it
Just pretended I knew so I that could get through
But i till got an A I was that kind of student
and kept playing some ball, point guard on the school team
Mostly rode the bench I had given up fools dreams
Of making it pro, I was taking it slow
Deciding what was next knew my fate would just grow
The more that I knew and the better I was rated
So I always studied hard for the letters that were graded
I still liked to learn  but I was waiting my turn
To find the kind of passion that's making you burn
With ambition to succeed and desire to start fast
Shouldn't have been surprised that it happened in art class
the first time I was proud of the work that I made
Then I showed it to my teachers didn't hurt that they raved

Sittin my room looking out at the sunset
Thinking bout life and the things i aint done yet
I wanna be a rapper and industrial designer
I wanna find a girl that I can love without the finer
Print about her needyness don't want to sound so greedy it's
Simply what I'm looking for, I'd probably like to cook some more
and travel round the world a couple times when we book the tour
I don't want the fame don't who you think you took me for
but I've already traveled and I'm always in the kitchen
With a girl that makes me feel like there is nothing that is missing
And when I'm not in studio working on designs
I'm in the other studio murdering these rhymes
Honestly I'm living in the moment I've been waiting for
So i think that what comes next is to own it and then take it forward
look at whats ahead of me without all of the stress
and try not to forget that I'm lucky and im blessed
