May the optimism of tomorrow be your foundation for today
[Chorus:]
The spotlight on my fans,
Sunshine, I can't tell a lie.
Want me to say what they just wanna hear now,
Want me to say what they just wanna hear now.
I can't lie, I feel quite phenomenal today, baby, yeah!
That new black soul shit.
[Verse 1:]
I was in the business when you was chasin' the bitches,
Now I got the dollars, I'm tryin' get my position,
Couple bad decisions, I got some character issues,
Although I'm never slippin' like student parent permission.
Yes, I am aware that America tryna get me,
So I let my friends carry paraphernalia.
‘Fore I love an industry girl, I'll marry civilian,
Picture a young, rich woman takin' me serious.
Although I hit my stride, ain't even in prime,
Singles in the chart make a broad lose top these days,
You ain't gotta do nothing to pop these days,
Instagram is runnin' they thoughts these days.
62 joint got me dougin' on ‘em,
Humbled, got my ass dropped, now I'm stuntin' on ‘em,
You better know that you overdo for some better endings,
That's who whoever develop second guessing, they blessin'.
[Chorus:]
The spotlight on my fans,
Sunshine, I can't tell a lie.
Want me to say what they just wanna hear now,
Want me to say what they just wanna hear now.
I just need you to vibe with me real quick,
We came from nothing.
[Verse 2:]
I don't like to boast but they ain't touchin' the flow,
Fuck a therapist, I put everything in this cone,
My only fear is marriage, she scared of bein' alone,
She settle for this bread so therein should be a trophy.
I'ma prolly marry somebody already familiar,
VH1 Ten and I'm not thinkin' about these bitches,
Can do without opinions,
Another brother caught up in the business,
Had that lock since I lost my scholarship.
I been gettin' it to my old coach and ballin',
Rose gold was forty, dopest nigga recordin',
Make hoes sprint the 40.
See me I thought money would change it, it got worse,
But it's a lot better than screamin', “Who got work?”
From openin' up for Back to packin' out 9:30,
I never sold crack when crack rappin' was workin',
With that fact it's backpackin' and murkin',
Gettin' that Bobby Heenan while you Mr. Perfect.
[Chorus]
