[Intro]
Muhuhaha!
[Verse 1]
Sometimes life gets me in a headlock (Headlock)
So I relieve myself on black and white keys (Keys)
No incest but I'm sure you can relate
When you sometimes wonder
And get lost in your mind
Like; a lot has changed since you saw me back then (Ah!)
Been reminiscing with my brother about what was;
And what's about to begin (Alright)
With the end in mind
Will I get signed?
How long will it take me?
Where will this world rate me? (Ah ha)
He's telling me that I've got as much time as I'm alive (Wooh!)
Telling me don't worry you will arrive
Just stay focused; keep your eyes on the prize
Trust me!
My spectacle is all that I visualize
[Pre-Chorus]
I got big dreams
Nothings gonna stop me
But please please please
God allow me
Chasing my dreams
Selfishly
I'm not self-centred
But ah yeah ah yeah
I'm doing this for me
I got big dreams
Nothings gonna stop me
But please please please
God allow me (Yeah)
This is who I'm becoming
Ah yeah
That's right I'm gonna fight
Till the d**h of me
(Muffled Vocals)
[Hook 1]
Nobody wakes up to fail
But somebody failed to wake up
Wake Up, wake up, wake up!
Tomorrow's not guaranteed
Let's make these moments last forever
What are they going to remember?
Remember, remember, remember!
Tomorrow's not guaranteed
(Now an exclusive)
[Verse 2]
I apologize for all you hear is this pessimist
I just hope from now on I'm forgiven for what might seem as arrogance (Huh)
(Huh) Made social reject (Huh)
(Huh) Yeah a part of me wanted to fit in (Yeah)
But that just made me realize
I was born to be outstanding
Ah! big better best (Best)
Belief is all I've got though I'm destined for greatness (Greatness)
The sky is the limit
Stop with the limits
I know I'm driven by negativity
But this is slowing me down (Ah)
I'm trynna be better
I'm gonna be better (Wooh!)
But I never want to change
I'll be that change I want to see
The way people view me
And my reflection are not the same
So this is just an insight of who I am and who I am becoming
Where there's no doors of opportunity
I will break walls
I will find loop holes
I'll be on my Santa Clause
You just scratching the surface
Where there's a world there's a way
Till I'm living everyday like its Christmas haa!
[Pre-Chorus]
I got big dreams
Nothings gonna stop me
But please please please
God allow me
Chasing my dreams
Selfishly
I'm not self-centred
But ah yeah ah yeah
I'm doing this for me
I got big dreams
Nothings gonna stop me
But please please please
God allow me (Yeah)
This is who I'm becoming
Ah yeah
That's right I'm gonna fight
Till the d**h of me
(Muffled Vocals)
[Hook 2]
Nobody wakes up to fail
But somebody failed to wake up
Wake Up, wake up, wake up! (Failed to wake up)
Tomorrow's not guaranteed
Let's make these moments last forever (Ah haa ha ha)
What are they going to remember?
Remember, remember, remember!
Tomorrow's not guaranteed
Nobody wakes up to fail
(I got big dreams, nothings gonna stop me)
But somebody failed to wake up
(But please please please God allow me)
Wake Up, wake up, wake up!
(Chasing after my dreams, selfishly)
Tomorrow's not guaranteed
(I'm not self-centred, but ah yeah ah yeah I'm doing this for me)
Let's make these moments last forever
(I've got big dreams, nothings gonna stop me)
What are they going to remember?
(But please please please God allow me)
Remember, remember, remember!
(Yeah)
Tomorrow is not guaranteed
[Outro]
The last words I heard just before I left my high school (ah ha ha ha)
Said I wouldn't go back till I was living the high life
The words I hold on to when the highway tries to ruin my drive
Christopher told me that one day he wants to see me on TV
Your belief in me
That kid inspires me
So I'ma keep looking forward
One day little bro
I'll be back for you
I hope one day you look up to me
Joshua wait and see
For you I'ma do it big
They will forget we African
