GIVE IT A SHOT
Verse 1
Everybody thought the plane crashed, let em know from the gate (gate) I just arrived a little late (wait)
I know what time it is, it's way past due
Never thought I left til I saw what I came back to
Been in the clouds tryna make it out this grey point of view
To see a brighter day and flip a coin into 2
Feeling like i'm wasting time, cause every time I think i'm at the finish line I wake up from that state of mind
Daydreaming back upon my grind
I just wanna touch the "paper" so it's only natural I "draw" this line
I had to break the rules
But god knows that i've payed for it every day on the way to paying deuce
So pay a lil respect and you might just get it back
Don't judge the book and overlook before you've read the facts
Just cause I ain't been around doesn't mean I slept
It only means that i've been down going through some sh**
Chorus
Some things might change, and, some things might not
One things for certain, you never know if you don't give it a shot
(u gotta give it a shot)
Some days it rains, til one, one day it i'll stop
Then u, gotta keep on searching, if you wanna find the way to the top
Gotta give it a shot
Verse 2
Somebody told me son don't jump if u can't see the bottom
f** it then i'm diving
I ain't tryna be the guy working a nine to five
And all I did before retiring was surviving
I had it up to here feeling like it's all a front
Stressing over some career that I don't probably even want
Watching all of my peers tryna cope with the pressure
Drowning under the surface hoping to find a treasure
Look at the sky every once in a while
Arms to short to box but i'm punching the clouds (wow)
And u ain't even gotta get the metaphor
To understand the message and recognize what i'm heading for
With a bag of experience and a stack of money
No matter what destinies planned for me, life's a journey
Like walking on railway tracks
Promise and swear to myself to never look back because
Chorus
Verse 3
Looking for that gold laying up in that pot
At least I can say that I gave it a shot
I made it this far why change it and stop?
Instead i'm picking up the pace while i'm racing the clock
Tic toc like my wrist watch conversating
Get gwop right quick fast, accelerating
That's just thoughts in my mind speaking out loud
If they've been trapped in the past i'm reaching out now
With no acting i'm reporting this live
Give u that feeling of being here, or just walking on by
Hope the camera don't die, battery low
It's just another day in the life, Reality Show!
