Flashback to Stardom
[Intro - Raw Poetic]
This is the rebirth of cool right here
Raheem DeVaughn, Panacea
In my lifetime, in my lifetime

[Hook x2 - Raheem DeVaughn]
It's where I've been
It's where I'm going
Take a look at me now
Take a look at me now

[Verse 1 - Raw Poetic]
My child ways used to control my days
Thoughts soft like sounds of Saint-Tropez
Back before a man wasn't too far from clay
My city was a world that's too big for me
History shaping me to what I was best to be
Lessons (?) learned from life never was stressin' me
Cloudy days left to me, when viewed respectfully
Let me be limitless, no need for boundaries
It's a natural high for a natural guy
Or, uh, tired when I was dragged from being outside
I was the Adam and Eve, innocence or survive
The thing we're born with that's beginning the lies
Before the color divide made the action the pride of me
The first step to show that I'm gonna rise
Life don't understand but it make no sense
I tried to sign a house that ain't got no fence
[Hook x2]

[Verse 2 - Raw Poetic]
I need a fence to hide behind to make my life so easy
(?) counting on to lead me
Adventure in my world pumpin' characters gonna greet me
Passin' me the marijuana high 'cause life was easy
Give me back before travels doctor's gonna treat me
Watching out for certain drugs that fuck up how I be
Escape reality through music and my poetry
And speed-dial my grandma, that's my Giving Tree
Taking up the sky flying
That's the old time I keep just like a goldmine
Funny rhyming of life, that's a slow time
Bring a tear to a grown man's eye in no time
Hidden in the warmth of my heart, 2Pac the co-times
From G.I. Joe to Barbie playing a hoe
I knew war and women would play the part in where I would go

[Hook x4]

[Outro - Raheem DeVaughn]
Sky high is the limit
Sky high is the limit
You wanna be a doctor, you can do it too
Wanna be a b-ball player, do it too
Wanna be a teacher, you can do it too
Wanna be a rapper, you can do it too
Wanna be a dancer, you can do it too
Wanna be a leader, you can do it too
Wanna be a lawyer, you can do it too
Wanna be a dreamer, you can do it too
Ain't no limit (ain't no limits)
Ain't no limit (ain't no limits)
Ain't no limit (ain't no limits)
Ain't no limit (look at me now, look at us now)
Ain't no limit
Ain't no limit
