City Lights

Got dreams of settlin down but the crown ain't on my head yet
No bed rest I've slept less then a recently sent home vet
On 4th of July with the bang in the sky.
My eyes on the prize of course I'm a ride.
When diamonds grip the wood it's understood how could you test my drive
Don't interrupt my motion with speed bumps I'm coasting
Of course I have dreams of a home that overlooks an ocean
But you can't see the sunset with clouded visions
Cruel intentions and no grit so let me continue with my motions
Ain't no slowing unless it's screwed don't fuck with me in this mood
I've courteously kept my cool so I'm cautiously warning you
Any attempt to prevent me from reaching my goal is a foolish move
I'm an underground king like Pimp C-ing me through

I'm up early not enough light in the daytime
Smoking a sweet while I'm rolling across the state line
Dream of settling down up on a countryside
But I end up getting swallowed by the city lights
The city lights the city lights
I'm gettin swallowed by the city lights
The city lights the city lights
I'm gettin swallowed by the city lights

We up early cause ain't enough light in the daytime
Smoked a sweet then we hightailed it to the state line
Got them dreams that big ol house out by the lake
But I'm an underground king until I see them pearly gates
Countryside by the plenty until we get to do the show
That interstate gonna break you or make you want it some more
A little change in my pocket ain't got no bills if I fold
I hear em say that they want it until they stuck on this road
Yea I don't think that I could leave it alone
Time to hit stage gotta get up there and sing a song
And then I stand in them lights until I make it back home
Cause baby one day your here then the next day you're gone

I'm up early not enough light in the daytime
Smoking a sweet while I'm rolling across the state line
Dream of settling down up on a countryside
But I end up getting swallowed by the city lights
The city lights the city lights
I'm gettin swallowed by the city lights
The city lights the city lights
I'm gettin swallowed by the city lights

Yea first thought let's make it clear
Pimp shit no sucka here
I'm all about dem duckets
Ain't got no time for dumb shit
I gotta keep it G fucked up now you missin me
Should of kept up on your toes oh now you feelin me fuck that
I'm tellin you now gotta show off in front of a crowd
Carry a frown round and round
Mufasa king who's rockin the crown
Neva a sound whenever I'm puttin it down
Nothin can phase me tryna play me
Maybe I gotta bump on the head and now they callin me crazy Hand me the gravy
And ring the alarm you bringing the smoke
I'm bringing the gar put it on up in the air
Movin on think that I care man I swear
You bitches is phony dealin wit you I'd rather be lonely
Chasin a bag even tho that its blowin
Den I kick back and smoke dro wit da homies

I'm up early not enough light in the daytime
Smoking a sweet while I'm rolling across the state line
Dream of settling down up on a countryside
But I end up getting swallowed by the city lights
The city lights the city lights
I'm gettin swallowed by the city lights
The city lights the city lights
I'm gettin swallowed by the city lights
