Wale - Ambition lyrics

[Intro: Wale] The time is now, on everything Took my heart away from money I ain't interested in fame And I pray that never change Ambition is priceless It’s something that’s in your veins And I put that on my name [Verse 1: Meek Mill] Uh, only hope I had was selling dope Was on my grind cause times was harder than a cellar floor My momma taught me never steal and never tell on folks I grew up looking up to n***as that was selling coke Oh, I was raised by the stop sign No religion I was getting saved by the Glock nine By the minute I was getting paid like a hot line Servin' raw and, fiends was calling, we was dot com Well connected, well respected and well protected Ain't get accepted, was rejected and now they regret it Ain't get my message, was no signal when I was texting The n***as I was calling was fraud and I learned my lesson Now I move with aggression, use my mind as a weapon Cause chances are never given they tooken like interceptions So throw that pa**, I’ll be the cornerback Me and Folarin MMG gon' bring that Warner back [Hook: Wale] For my ambition Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it They gon' love me for my Ambition Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it They gon' love me for my Ambition Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it Look, they gon' love me for my ambition Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my vision [Interlude: Rick Ross] It speaks for itself Define ambition for me [Verse 2: Rick Ross] My ambition to win, just to get me some ends Help me pay my little rent, maybe sit in a Benz I saw momma praying as she wait on results It was hot in the kitchen can I wait on the porch My father was missing, War Lord Oliver North Life was diggin’ me deeper, I kept on coming up short Breaking so many laws, waking up in the dark Who cut my power off? it’s time to move that powder soft Not too many options when you coming from the projects Sittin’ in the trap now you moving Cyndi Lauper Girls wanna have fun, and a n***a with some change And I doubt that ever change Ambition is priceless that’s something that's in your veins And I doubt that ever change Ambition is my sh** and I put that on my name And I doubt that ever change [Hook] [Verse 3: Wale] Well wishes to my opposition You n***as probably cop a plea before you cop a pistol I got nothing against them, they got f**ing potential But every n***a who can read gotta get his issue Subscribe, n***as reside where all the lions and k**ers be And I ain't spend a minute up in the streets But I’m limitless mentally, I’m lyrically ZMT Lebron sh**, I was in that 6 after 23 And family is everything, and money is less important Long as your mama love you, don’t ever love a woman I got a lot of b**hes, they got a lot of feelings But I got that green on my eyes And that ain’t no Donnie Simpson I retire you n***as: f** you and your position! They placeholding so slippery n***as can’t even kick it Y’all rambling, talking sh** to these b**hes You know you real you don’t say it You know you real, we gon feel it Ralph! [Outro: Wale] Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my vision They gon love me for my ambition Easy to dream a dream, but much harder to live it Look, they gon love me for my ambition Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my vision They gon love me for my ambition
