Back to earth

I picture Signing my first deal would be so unreal Can't believe someone believed in me Enough to make my dream real Hours in the studio writing recording its unbelievable Thinking back when I was a kid I break my back for this rap Thats why I got compressed discs The cd player on non skip Cuz I scratch and claw my way through it Now I neeed some tape cuz sets (cassette) break Put a pencil through it and circle back they still couldn't round it up to beat me in a rap Now I have a chance to live it all out No stress on a check No payments on a house Thats what true freedom is all about Don't gotta break my back anymore for low wage Shooting for the stars but kept falling short No matter the climb I couldn't get to the Top I kept going if it was the last thing I do Because this world is better off with and not without you Pick your head up and shoot for the moon Dont have to do it alone Ill do it with you Because if you don't take a shot you'll miss I know God has better plans than this 9 to 5 bullshit just can't be it I know I was made for the lights and the stage I wasn't made to finish at minum wage So here I am putting all my trust and my faith Into a dream thats so crazy to chase But I'll prevail and catch it if its the last thing I do Cuz I can't give up gotta do it for me and do it for you Preparing to tour the world Different states different countries A lot on my plate but still staying hungry Homage to all those that paved the way before me Get to do this for a living because they created something And get to put Long island back on the map Shout out to LL and Rakim for doing that If I keep it going maybe I could be one of the greats Grew up on an era of heavy weights with a list so obvious but I'll drop on a later day Slim shady in my head ready to hit the stage Light in my face as I begin to rap my song Looking out seeing thousands sing along Can't believe how far I've come Lord grant me the strength that I need to succeed If you're listening please just help I know cant do this by myself I just need some courage to keep on going Sometimes I want to give up so I just a little something I know God has better plans than this 9 to 5 bullshit just can't be it I know I was made for the lights and the stage I wasn't made to finish at minum wage So here I am putting all my trust and my faith Into a dream thats so crazy to chase But I'll prevail and catch it if its the last thing I do Cuz I can't give up gotta do it for me and do it for you Now Closing out the show The croud chants more they don't want me to go They want to keep going they keep chanting my name Its insane to think I'm someone who people look to day to day for an escape So they turn to my music to play So I know I have to lay The best shit I can and give it my all every fucking second Can't have bad days just have to push through I got fans I can't let down they stick with me like glue So I give em an encore and finally close out Jump into the crowd Signing everything and just bro-ing out Can't believe this all came to fruition Had a clear vision to solve all my problems like a mathematician Man I felt so alive How did I get to this point where I don't just work to survive Alarm going off Fuck, I was dreaming and still have my 9 to 5 But Maybe one day I'll wake up and it won't be a lie Maybe I will get signed and have a crowd come out to see to me live Maybe I won't have to break my back for a dead end job And everything will come together for my family to thrive Not worrying about bills piling up stressing month to month Won't worry about putting my head to this gun Hiding behind a smile but not Wanting not to wake up Have a clear consence and a clear mind Until then I'll keep dreaming and stay on the grind I have to if I don't want to get left behind People did it before so why not me? To everyone trying to be something dont quit, try and fail but don't live in regret, chin up chest out and fucking go after it.
