COLLEGE KID

Lyrics

I stick my foot in the crack, you ain't closing these doors
I worked too hard for that, forget these personal wars
Dig deep at the bottom, stand on top of these chords
You can have all my money for all these hits I stored
Be on top of the world and win all the awards
Be a star, all the women, everything could be yours
Encourage hope, positive life restored
Perseverance is everything, not a trip to the morgue


It took me quite some time to get back
And I was lost, and I ain't want to deal with those facts
And of course, you know you can't force me to rap
I shrug it off, cause I'm one of the best at that
I felt soft, kind of like I lost my attack
And I'm a boss, they don't need to see what I lack
I come across a lot of enemies I don't even be strapped
But I'm loved by so many, so it's hard to just crack
I take it there, and you don't have to draw me no map
The only story I tell is my son bed time nap,
Yeah, I try to relax, but my brain just goes
Think about all my problems and my pain just grows
Lucky they can't see inside, they just be watching my clothes
(My dude, what up son?) It's like no one knows
Man, I gotta be a hard rock when I'm leaving those gates
Females can't tell, all they know is that I got good taste
And see the money, another fly woman, but that ain't the case
My smarts come from making a bunch of mistakes
It's the jungle and the cloud that got me pumping my brakes
Always do what it takes to fill my fridge and crib
Living from check to check like a freshman college kid
Go 'round, go 'round and go
I stick my foot in the crack, you ain't closing these doors
I worked too hard for that, forget these personal wars
Dig deep at the bottom, stand on top of these chords
You can have all my money for all these hits I stored
Be on top of the world and win all the awards
Be a star, all the women, everything could be yours
Encourage hope, positive life restored
Perseverance is everything, not a trip to the morgue

They say you can't prosper with your name in the dirt
(RIP, love and miss you) Got your name on their shirts
Man, I'm alive, keep doing this till I make this work
And now I'm your main man cause my pockets burst
They don't give a dam about you, that's what they said first
Get killed out a movie theater, or sitting in church
They send you home with bullet wounds like your mom's a nurse
You'll be a vegetable or paralyzed, ain't no miracle doctors
Don't know if you're coming or going like some heavyweight boxers
Got cops with bad hangers taped inside of their lockers
Nowadays it don't shock us cause the killings get petty
Everybody go strap up, get their guns and get ready
Emotions built up, full of feelings and better
Unless they moms and pops, the only time they regret it
The only one that do the least want to take all the credit
A close friend talking junk, never admit that they said it
Your expression speak value, heard you loud and clear
And if I was to say something, it'll get loud in here not today
Don't matter where you at, ain't no living in peace
Somebody close or a stranger want that personal beef
Eliminate the competition make it hard to compete
get that

I'm scared)ain't know place they don't say my name on the streets

I stick my foot in the crack, you ain't closing these doors
I worked too hard for that, forget these personal wars
Dig deep at the bottom, stand on top of these chords
You can have all my money for all these hits I stored
Be on top of the world and win all the awards
Be a star, all the women, everything could be yours
Encourage hope, positive life restored
Perseverance is everything, not a trip to the morgue
