Big Sean
Head To The Sky (Freestyle)
[Intro: Chorus from Sounds of Blackness–Optimistic]

[Verse 1: Big Sean]
Straight up out the blackness
Untouched like Cassius
New stage of my life
Fresh out of backstage passes
Meaning everybody can't have all that access
Can't half step if you ain't choreograph it
My face in the clouds
Everything else on the floor
Nothing in between where I'm at
And where I'm tryna go
New contract, name next to the X
And its worth a lot of O's
But it still ain't what I'm owed
So I touch down
Get the cake it's already baking
Stood tall through it all
Nothing short of amazing
I know life is give and take
You make it or break it
See the magic in mistakes
And start to embrace it
How you tell someone that's been everywhere
That they're going places
And how you shake hands with that man
When you know he racist?
Suited for this shit
I even sat through the court cases
Cartier buffs with the Gucci and North Faces
Bad bitch; before we fade away
Let's get more faded
Keep underrating me
It's keeping me motivated
See light in the dark and
Start making the correlation
No handouts, just
Hand-eye coordination
I probably could've made more though
But, I never snaked 'em
I guess to me a real bond
Always was more sacred
Could give a fuck about a bank statement
I'm more of a statement
Sometimes the world will make
You feel like you ain't enough
It's hard being the 'U' in the middle of 'Trust'
Police lineup how these boys sus
One shot to pop
Rich Paul, I'm Klutch
Look
[Bridge]
My grandma first job in Monroe
Was pickin' out cotton
My momma last job gon' be
Pickin' out houses
That right there should let you know
What I'm really about
Bitch!
Look, aye
I'm still shinin'
I'm still on timin'
They steady tryna knock me off
I'm still climbin'
Had to cut them old patterns
Re-design 'em

[Chorus: Sounds of Blackness]
As long as you keep
Your head to the sky

[Verse 2: Big Sean]
Yea
Babygirl askin' why I'm busy
Can't reply
She asked me what I'm doing
Like it isn't 'do or die'
Even if it's looking down
Keep your head up to the sky
[Chorus: Sounds of Blackness]
As long as you keep
Your head to the sky

[Refrain: Big Sean]
Keep your head up to the sky
Keep your head up to the sky
Even if it's looking down
Keep your head to the sky

[Verse 3: Big Sean]
Count a million cash
Throw the bread up to the sky
For my dawgs who ain't with us and
Their bed up in the sky, yea

[Outro: Big Sean]
Just keep your head up, man
Know what I'm sayin'
It get hectic out here, I know
Shit get heavy out here, man
Just know you ain't alone in this Bitch
I swear to God
Yea
