You know they always told em, that America is the land of opportunity
You know? But around my way, it seems that the only opportunities there was to get shot or arrested, right?
But then a [?] thing happened and, a black man elected president, and a puerto rican chick is up in the court
And [?], I'm a make a huge change for our people
[Verse 1:JayHoj]
See I'm a young n***a, but still a good n***a
Around the corner were hood n***as and drug dealers
I never let it describe me cause we divided
Parents kept me away from that made me open my eyelids
We all are not perfect, half of us ain't even worth it
Want all the money in the world, but don't deserve it
We [?] yes we are, but I feel like the star
But I'm only a human that's no different from you all
Like I said I ain't perfect, maybe not even worth it
Maybe in due time they'll leave me stranded deserted
I'm certain, yeah I'm certain
Certain that I can change, gave up on a few things
I'm still me, still the same
Still the same young n***a that was ballin' with my spalding
Basketball dreams had me feeling like Jordan
But like both Michael's everything must end
23's on my feet, moonwalk when we dance
[Hook: Cano]
I just want the world (8x)
I just want the world to understand that I'm a man
I am not perfect but my flaws I comprehend
I dedicate the song to anyone who understands
I just want the world, I just want the world
I just want the
[Verse 2: Moi]
Mom better watch out daddy better watch out
This boy just got good
If they needed my left limb they know that I would
f** it, runnin' around tracks like a sprinter don't matter
If I'm looking at your girl I'm trying to be in that
If I'm talking 'bout smacking I ain't talking 'bout bats
Shawty you could bring your girl I think I'm into all that
That's the liquor talking I know cause I do know you
And when you're usually around I can't get through to you
But since you sittin' here, I'm a be all in your ear
You like when I call you dear...
Hey this is beautiful, listen Imma be true with you
The world is such an ugly place and
Sometimes it is cruel to you
Know you be fronting and
Acting like it don't get to you
But if get too much just hit me up
You know I'm here for you
I know you like it
I'm rapping I got these big dreams
Talking with two girls
If he get on I'm on his damn team
And keep talking pretty lady I keep listening
Watch me get the world and
Get you everything you wish you [?]
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Cano]
I just want the world
To know the kids I represent
They just want love, admiration and respect
And I swear I swear I swear I swear
My mind is f**ing lost I'm trying to do my f**ing best
The best I'll ever be, cause what? Ain't never see?
They always talk about some sh** they won't achieve
I just want the world, f** I want it all
f** I want to see what is behind the other wall
f** I want the b**hes, beamers, bentley's all the malls
They ask me if I f** with them and I'm like not at all
I know I'm not perfect, I got a lot of flaws
But I'm a keep it real even after I am gone
You see I'm around the corner from adulthood
Corner from success
Corner from failure but, nevertheless
I keep trying trying trying
My mind gets caught in the world
I might not know much but
I do know that I want the world...
