Passion Lyrics

When I look back at it, guess I've lived a life to lead

Did everything I should have done, and tried to do some righteous deeds

Fostered lots of wholesome growth but know I didn't plant the seeds

If I'm being honest, there were times I even watered weeds

Look at me, talking like I'm on my deathbed

But just think, how else would you want me to look straight ahead

I talk like it's happened cause in my mind I got it planned out

Mapped out, schemed out, I like to say dreamed out

That's the stuff I dream bout, it's focused on me

Me me, man how selfish can one human being be

It's so tragic, I thought all this greatness appeared like some magic

Set me back a couple years, so now I'm talking bout some practice

Do you remember how I'd cry talking bout hard work, painstaking hard work

Kept my parents happy when the birds chirped

Felt they never knew how hard that I work

Wanted validation for a second but I guess that ain't how that work

Now I live for me and only me, is that what I should say

Disregard my peoples feelings even on a rainy day

When they ain't got a thing to say, and I'm left picking up the pieces

Of the puzzle, looking at em got me puzzled

And disgruntled, should've known that my friends hated me

Should've known that no one ever willingly could stay with me

Should've known their dreams cannot come true because they wait for me

Yeah they wait for me

Yeah they wait for me

And they hating me

Steady hating me

Thank God I still got my grandma and she pray for me

Lost her husband and she sick but she still pray for me

I'm annoying and she still won't go berating me

So I wonder can I keep it up

Will I keep it tut

Will I stay ten toes down in the mud

Or will I give it up

Admit I can't hang with the best of em

And I could only stay one step ahead of the rest of em

And so I move against the wind

I fight against the sands

The waves steady my hands

The flames are calling out my name

When lightning strikes again

It's my blood it will tame
