Wale - Bittersweet lyrics

This is a symphony The bittersweet of life, of life Walk on with your scars, don't turn around Run utill you see light, till you see light Yeah. Uh The long road to success is dangerous That's why I never claimed I was the best I want to be their breath Don't want to be the king Ain't tryin to be your god, just want to live my dreams Put it on everything, history I'mma make Typically, those great have predetermined faith Mostly cause n***as hate you, tryin to fill up your plate n***a's carnivore when there's so much at steak Ain't tryin to fight no war against my brother But I'm a man first and I demand my respect from all 'em Success sweet, nucka, is why I keep lookin' But every other bite it slightly needs suga Like whenever I look up, I'm expecting the light I'm abusing the sunshine so I'm technically blind Translation cause my life is too sweet I can always go home and look down my street (It's bittersweet) This is a symphony The bittersweet of life, of life Walk on with your scars, don't turn around Run utill you see light, till you see light This is a bittersweet life (life) (X2) Uh, this bittersweetness of this artform n***as will find a way to tweak it till the art's gone Understand every imperfection I just embrace it and take it in within my essence With little effort, soon they will all respect it I am the smelling-salt to whom soever narcoleptic Success is what I work for, and when them dudes hate They make it worth more Chris Wallace said the sky was the limit And only make news when your quarters are in it So I'mma push it to the end and take quarters on shots If im in gin till I win it Or pain k** it, cause I ain't tryin to feel it See I'm just tryin to fill up banks like Hilla- Read all about me, believe that without me There is truth in these lies and they bleed on without me This is a symphony The bittersweet of life, of life Walk on with your scars, don't turn around Run utill you see light, till you see light This is a bittersweet life (life) (X2)
