Summers over summer over the kids are heading to cla** While im sitting on this couch just watching the time pa** 9 to 5 just wasn't for me That school work I done did it On the outside looking in seems nowheres where im headed I remember every summer buddy walk up the block Dribbling basketballs pivot pantomiming the rock Some n***as use to laugh at him praying that he would flop Cause they could never touch the sky too many rocks in they socks They told him to stop (did he?) Hm probably not he coulda been a bad boy but opportunity knocked Opened the door on the floor now is where you can watch Its either whip or your drive I'm trying to get off the lot You ask him what drive worth he prolly tell you alot When he finally left from college got called to the draft stage Held his jersey to crowd I wonder what he'd say every night for he slept he told me that he prayed (Chourus Portugal. The Man) I just wanna sleep forever (Sleep Forever) Never see tomorrow (see tomorrow) Or lead or follow (need or borrow) Its Lower cases with capital behind bars like animals Stick you up for that green thats cactus they'll split ya cantalope Greed became a sickness but more moneys the antidote Lion about dollars will leave you losing thats antelopes Its a jungle a junkie a pastor preaching bout funding is equally and amazingly condescendingly cunning So to the alter were running instead of learning were hunting instead of saving a soul hes more so focused on stunting I remember convos with my parents bout buying jays Getting jumped for the jumpman I jump back to them days Where they wouldn't let me cop em that very reason afraid Mighty funny I got older copped em when I got paid Not a slave to that thinking atleast thats what I would say Though ironic when I got it it all got taken away Fore I lay my head to sleep and kneel on the floor to pray I just look up toward the ceiling and this is what I say (Chorus)
