lyrics

[Intro]
Said all white drank, all black shades...I don't even...

[Verse 1]
Said all black shades
Not literally, but the fact that I can't see negativity is the reason that I am paid
'Cause success is my wage, wait-a-wait a minute,
Yo, fresh to dreams, my nigga I'll be bathing in my vision
Keeping belief in those dreams and my faith is my religion
I do it for the record like a tape after it's filmed
And you can have anything you ask as long as it's not solicit
Lot's of shit that I've been through, lot's of shit that we go through
The reason some niggas go postal on careful approximation
I'm facing saiyans like Goku, therefore so what do I say
Mufasa's Scar was Simba's Kovu and all the people they close to
Dodgin' the little eye of the ghetto bird in South Central
Not me, but all the people that I'm close to that they close to
Ridin' in Nella's Altima, pulled over by the Liquor Bank
Officers givin' petty seatbelt tickets for a total...
What?
So now it's just me and my ignant angels
Wrekless but not in danger, that truthful shit seems endagered
Like retro, I make the transition despite the changes
Team Wrekless is who I came with, so just put me in the game and I'm gon'

[Hook]
Go so hard, five six but I dream so tall
They say the sky's the limit, but I'm livin' in the clouds
If I ever touch down, I don't need no ball
But baby Imma ball 'Cause I'm in the zone
Jesus is who I came with, so everywhere is my home
I got things to get off my chest, let my freedom ring, where's the phone
I got reasons why Imma get it, the same reason that I'm livin', I'm on (3x)

[Verse 2]
Clack, Clack, Clack, shooting blanks like Crash
Daddy of the Persian lady, tell me have you heard him lately?
Jet...Two point 0, yeah this version's crazy
Ah, not too much can change me
Only one can tame me...
Married to my music, honey moons, me and my lady
Can I get it baby? Some are moody, some are May...
June, July... all the way through August, I'll be sowing seeds I harvest at that time
Like apartments in the projects, you can find...
That whole section ate (8) where you die just (digest) to your confinements
In the hood where we make it our Suburbs
From all the images we post, a three dimensional Tumblr
About ten miles from the coast
Get reminded it's rough over here, for that simple reason, it's us over fear
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
I feel that Imma build it... doubted in the beginning,
But now I've come to conceal that thing they call dreams,
All mine from the city of Dr. Dre, NWA
From the Jays all the way to way on the east-side, the Cali-maze I'm gon'

[Hook]
Go so hard, five six but I dream so tall
They say the sky's the limit, but I'm livin' in the clouds
If I ever touch down, I don't need no ball
But baby Imma ball 'Cause I'm in the zone
Jesus is who I came with, so everywhere is my home
I got things to get off my chest, let my freedom ring, where's the phone
I got reasons why Imma get it, the same reason that I'm livin', I'm on (3x)

[Verse 3]
Uh...Uh...Yeah
We 'bout that...
Ever since Wrekless been on the scene,
The crew is multiplying, two finger count that
Bunch of various artists on their grind, it's like a soundtrack,
Bunch of young niggas tryin' to ball, we call that bounce back
From the city where niggas do everything to get that kitty cat
Word to BeeGee and his mental city map
Even if I'm 'sleep, I'm probably working for that title,
So I'm never ever idle in my mind, so critics, give me dap
Yeah, we're ahead of the circle that we could never fit in
The story's told where the terminal has become the mission
And inner vision is intermission through all dimensions
So my nigga, this Wrekless, don't you forget to mention

[Hook]
Go so hard, five six but I dream so tall
They say the sky's the limit, but I'm livin' in the clouds
If I ever touch down, I don't need no ball
But baby Imma ball 'Cause I'm in the zone
Jesus is who I came with, so everywhere is my home
I got things to get off my chest, let my freedom ring, where's the phone
I got reasons why Imma get it, the same reason that I'm livin', I'm on (3x)
