Ace Hood
Mind of a Visionary

(T-Rob Beatz)
(I really healed, I really)

[Pre hook]
From the time that I was younger
Big dreams and full of hunger
It was rough inside that jungle
I fight to fulfill a promise
My pops wasn't around so you know I cherished my momma
Them cold nights in Broward like genocide in Rwanda (Woah)

Thank you lord
For all these years
I know the devil working he can’t interfere

I shedded blood
I cried tears
From Starvation to Hood Nation now we finally here

[Chorus 1]
And they said I couldn't
And they said I wouldn't
I kept my head to the sky and thank God I rose above it

I made some tough decisions
Some things I have to live with
I trusted my intuition
That’s the Mindset of a Visionary
[Verse 1]
No pot to piss in
Porches get jumped off
Sixteen I envisioned big dreams
Imma be big dawg

Hard head make her soft ass
Momma was ticked off
Granny praying day in day out
And now we here now

Me and Pete was really like brothers hate how that went down
Put in all that work just to separate was a let down
Really had us seeking us found from tending new town
Jumpin' out that Bentley Bentayga I'm breaking new ground

I done did the most simple phases back from my rebounds
I'm piling up that paper
My kids'll get them acres
They tried to give me labels
I broke free from all them cables
Integrity on my table
It ain't no seats for none of you takers

I'm rewarded for my patience
Came to path with all my prayers
I'm mastering myself
But yes I yield into my nature
My rich spirit nowadays attract me to that paper
Path to least resistance
I rock chains like I’m in prison (Yeah)
[Chorus 1]
And they said I couldn’t
And they said I wouldn't
I kept my head to the sky and thank God I rose above it

I made some tough decisions
Some things I have to live with
I trusted my intuition
That’s the Mindset of a Visionary

[Chorus 2]
And they said I couldn't
They said I wouldn't
I kept my head to the sky
I trusted my intuition

I made some tough decisions
I trusted know that I'm gifted
Internally was afflicted
But that’s the Life of a Visionary

[Verse 2]
Really stood on business
N***as caught up in they feelings
Shot up through the roof
Folks thought I hit my sentence
Legend in my trenches
I was raised in them conditions
Know she love me now
But I got parts that made us vicious

Money gon' unfold
Whenever they gon' with they intentions
Weapons will form
But I got time when it's extended
How he back and better
This is not what they intended
I leveled up my life and now I'm in the best position

I been too strong
For far too long
I been in my zone
I always knew I'd be here
But it took time to ascend the throne

I'm from a dark past
I was labeled an outcast
But I knew I'd outlast
It was time and time again
I put the work in just so I can get past

I thank God just that I'm gifted
My spirits been uplifted
My views they been shifted
Cuz I learned from my decisions

I'm at a new high
That made me realize
Just where the truth lies
I'm a visionary so there's every really only one thing that's on my mind (I'm gone)

[Bridge]
Really healed
Killing off those herbs that no longer serve me purpose
This is not drill
Really tired of being humble
I sit back whenever I stumble
It was God's will

[Chorus 1]
And they said I couldn't
And they said I wouldn't
I kept my head to the sky and thank God I rose above it

I made some tough decisions
Some things I have to live with
I trusted my intuition
That's the Mindset of a Visionary
