My World Is Trife (Big L Mix)
[Verse 1: Graph]
Yo, sometimes I wake up still dreaming, staring at the ceiling, my mind scheming through another world I see myself be in
Reality is misleading, yo all I think about is succeeding but at times I find myself trapped in my own feelings
I'm lifeless, ain't no bright future for me like this
Snakes got me vicegripped, throwing shade on me I can't even see where the light is
Hiding their true faces, they don't wanna see me release tracks
They'd rather see me crack
But I plan to fill suitcases, no longer Eastpacks
Classes didn't do much for me but bury me slowly so I dropped out, fuck a bachelor if I can have a master in ceremony
Squeezing the mic is the only dream I'm keeping in sight, and damn right I'm gonna live it, the hell with these critics enforcing me their meaning of life
'Cus I ain't trynna live a life of 9 to 5, I wanna flash ice and rides, never wear the same clothes twice
My world is trife
[Hook: Big L 2x]
''It's time to make power moves and get the cheddar
And buy the real nice things that makes live better
No foolish acts, moves must be clever
I'm down for whatever
I gotta blow son it's now or never''
[Verse 2: Graph]
And ever since I was young I dreamed of being a star son, labeled king poet in pre-school that's where my love begun
Fast forward to 21, it's time for me to get me some
I'm clinged on making it happen, hoping this rapping can bring me some sort of income, I want it all
Ain't no life for me working eight hours a day for a foul pay from some motherfucker who'll just pile me away
I wanna go my own route and break through, but in this world it's kinda hard to stay you when you're stuck with people that don't share the same view
All I tried to do was do well, but Hip-Hop is the only thing I've always felt, and if that's wrong, I'm already destined for hell
I want the rags and riches (riches)
Stack them digits (digits)
Mack them bitches (bitches)
But so far everything is still blank, just wishes
So no more sweetness jack I'm aiming fat, and don't even think of stopping me, you might as well lay on the train tracks
'Cus I ain't trynna live a life of 9 to 5, I wanna flash ice and rides, never wear the same clothes twice
My world is trife

[Verse 3: Graph]
So untill the day I'm where I wanna be at, I won't relax but keep my focus set on blowing my name on the map till my voice starts spreading
Expect me to rip songs to fragments, I was born a no one but imma be gone a legend so beware
I'm smashing all those who dragged me under, for too long I gave y'all the satisfaction of seeing me suffer
Plus God's test and plans backfired me, now I'm firing back with raps of lead 'cus I ain't trynna go back to feeling fucking depressed again
I know Pun and L live in every sentence I move, and since I touched the emblem on DeShaun's grave, I got something to proof
So this goes out to all my family, my enemies, whoever thought that quiet, shy kid would grow up and leave mics in agony
As long as I'm doing what's meant to be, I won't work a day in my life. So best believe that till the death of me imma be slaying the mic, word up
'Cus I ain't trynna live a life of 9 to 5, I wanna flash ice and rides, never wear the same clothes twice
My world is trife

[Outro: Graph]
Yo word up, it's time to make power moves and get the cheddar
It's time to stop dreaming, I cannot be dreaming forever
It's time I get up and make shit happen
You know, how can I trust my heart to beat for me at night, and not trust it when it tries to guide me somewhere, tries to guide me to my dreams you know what I'm saying? I want it all baby, it's now or never
