[Verse 1: Jimmy Nice]
Tryna make some history
Picture me up in the stands where they're waving hands
Little me'd look at me now like 'You've made it, man'
It's funny, in front of strangers I feel at home
This here is the only thing that I really own
Really though, NY bound, I'm on the red eye
Mind playin' tricks on the kid like Jedi
Will I reach these heights, be everything I said I would?
I touch down like the engine that could
I'm in the Mecca, the hood, this ain't my neck of the woods
But I'm a man with a dream that's as grand as the scheme
Cue the scene, gutter full of steam
And big brother be telling me where he was as a teen
And each word remains in my brain's hall of fame
See you and I we're kinda like the same
We'll probably always ride the back car of the first train
'Cause the heroes in our lives know us by our first names'
That's game, no... that's James
[Chorus: Solo & Joyride]
Best laid plans
I'ma be the man some day, one day
Best laid plans
I'ma be the man some day, one day
Best laid plans
I'ma be the man some day, one day
Best laid plans
I'ma be the man some day, one day
