First things first you are never alone
Whenever ya need me hit me up on headphones
And i'll be right there don't panic at all
I'm so off the hook i'll always answer your call
If you need company here's a familiar voice
If you need a bit of guidance pick your lyric of choice
I'll be ya bff that you can always turn to
Cuz this connection is forever these bars are eternal
So first do what you came here to do
You got plenty of time got plenty of youth
Just take it easy take a breather ain't no need for you to rush
It'll make its way through to take its course soon enough
You still young no need to grow up so quick
Put your thumbs up like you goin' to go hitch
And say it will work out all okay
And don't forget i'm just a headphone call away holla
- Chorus -
Pull up your sleeves
Hold your head believe
Set your heart to do something
It'll work out
The year is '04 i'm on the basement floor
I hit rock bottom man i'm facing the law
It's 20 below and i'm raking leaves
And all i can think about is how to bake weed
Believe me i've had my days
Like when i played the playa and i got played
I had one in brooklyn and one in queens
Then the one i fell for did the same thing
So many fails had to go through it
So to know wise had to know foolish
Just how pacquiao's our joe louis
Life is a struggle but a river flows through it
Music that's my salvation
Work back time me my pals wasted
Patience so hard to learn
But the best things in life are what's hard to earn
- Theresa -
Yo the harder it seems the harder i dream
I wanna touch the sky and every star in between
I wanna justify every heart that believed
I wanna just define what impossible means
It was all a dream i almost ignored it
An asian chick on a hip hop recording
They gave a warning said i was too foreign
They wanted that thing but i listened to lauryn
If jordan got cut from his varsity roster
Rowling got no's 8 times for harry potter
Hudson lost idol before she got an oscar
So it ain't over 'til the fat lady's opera
And it's the simplest thing
You got two choices you sink or you swim
You got one voice do you lip sync or sing?
So pick your poison give up or get in let's go
