I got my eyes on the sky
I see my future in golden lights
I'm never gonna give up
Stomping like thunder in the sky, I'll be here 'till the day I die
About my business, so I studied like a Harvard student
And when I'm writing lyrics, always put my heart into it
Got verses fluent in the ways of making party music
With songs deep enough to elevate or spark a movement
I had to do it, it's all part of me
Puffing drough, politics, the world economy
Survival of the fittest, keep the pigs up off of me
Still doing drugs and tryna get a bitch on top of me
Independent living, always had our own vision
Loyal to the soil, focus on the whole mission
I should be sitting in the prison for the shit I've witnessed
I could be dead, but I'm living out my dreams and wishes
Listen close, every time I speak, I drop a gem
Give me the mic with any crowd that I'm rocking in
So if you call my celly, nigga best be talking bread
And tune in, I party hard, like I'm walking dead
I got my eyes on the sky
I see my future in golden lights
I'm never gonna give up
Stomping like thunder in the sky, I'll be here 'till the day I die
I had a dream, making it big from a small town
Nobody thought that it could happen, but look at me now
These major labels chew you up and then they spit you out
I love the underground, I never stop, we put it down
No doubt, I'm making them freeze when they hear me
Clearly the freshest, all the people gon' feel me
Time is of the essence, I'm blessed to stay in the present
Independent with the rap fetish, ain't no pretending
When I'm killing the microphone, there ain't no feeling better
I never let up, I keep my head up, staying front and center
I'm always on a mission, I'm living, fuck repetition
Me and my team don't play around, there ain't no competition
So when you see me at the show, just know we paid our dues
Fuck being normal, stepping out the box and breaking rules
They try to stop me, cross a hater, always shake them fools
And when you're doing what you love, there ain't no way to lose
I got my eyes on the sky
I see my future in golden lights
I'm never gonna give up
Stomping like thunder in the sky, I'll be here 'till the day I die
So I've been told I been livin' on the edge
Almost given up so many times, I can't comprehend
Where I will be in the end, but without my friends
I can't even go nowhere at all, I need to make amends
Rappers nowadays, message that they send
Make the younger generation feel like they can't defend
Themselves without a gimmick that they mimmick
Tryna make a living, wanna make it big, I start to feel sick
This game is nasty, I wanna lay it past me
But when I blast the music that's just magic
I feel I need to have it, but when I grab it
It's slipping through my fingers, all the time - damn it
The underground is where I need to be
It's where I feel free, fuck a major label, independent's real
So I'm just being me, what you get is what you see
Nothing that is worth anything comes easy
I got my eyes on the sky
I see my future in golden lights
I'm never gonna give up
Stomping like thunder in the sky, I'll be here 'till the day I die
