[00:15.21]	Road Runner how we chasing the dream
[00:17.25]	Started from the bottom, niggas was honestly just tryna make it to see
[00:21.04]	A better life, better than 9-5, how do I make it make sense to a team?
[00:24.71]	Or make it make sense to my mom and my father, like "Boy better get a degree."
[00:28.34]	I'm just tryna make them all see
[00:30.58]	That we ain't gotta slave over stoves, no we ain't gotta be in the kitchen
[00:33.34]	Like we ain't gotta work 12 hours regretting decisions
[00:35.99]	We could be true to our wishes
[00:37.31]	We can be frolicking children and put all our trust in our feelings
[00:39.96]	Living in Hell wasn't choice but making it heaven is vision
[00:43.09]	And realization is chilling
[00:45.69]	Been trying to read more often
[00:47.47]	I want to see me blossom
[00:49.11]	Gotta protect my mind
[00:51.24]	Gotta be so awesome
[00:52.89]	I gotta be this for my sisters and that for my brothers
[00:56.05]	I gotta be real for myself and real for the others
[00:58.95]	Do for a generation
[01:00.94]	Do for a better nation
[01:02.31]	Do for the future children
[01:03.61]	Do for the ****ing planet
[01:06.81]	How the **** I'ma manage?
[01:08.09]	How the **** I'ma make it?
[01:09.41]	Need to have better patience
[01:10.78]	Need to have dedication
[01:12.18]	Need to make my decision
[01:14.21]	Tell me how you've been living x6
[02:12.17]	Aye you don’t really smile like you used to

[02:17.37]	Figured I lost myself in the work like way back
[02:20.86]	What the **** make you say that?
[02:22.33]	Privacy we get way less
[02:24.02]	And I'm still focused on pay back
[02:25.65]	Like Alot of shit you could of said I, but imma get it anyway I
[02:29.30]	Told my niggas be patient, did that yeah they stayed down
[02:32.79]	Now get the **** up out the way, I know you wished you would’ve stayed cause we living great
[02:36.41]	The Bad decisions we done made, been molding us into the greats we go till we break I know
