i miss my treehouse

Used to chill up in my treehouse
High above the clouds, inside a world, I couldn't be found
I was doing me, all by myself and staying positive
Fall asleep and wake up, had a dream about accomplishments
Ima do It all
As long I can stay committed
I don't want a 9:00 to 5:00
Cuz I'm too high above the city
Know my mom is getting worried,
Promised I would make her proud, but
Then they cut my treehouse down

Flash forward twenty years
Group work, twenty peers
Stuck in grad school
I'm mad cool, but that don't matter here

Had to sacrifice my goals cuz now I got a family
No more music, no more lyrics, no more dreams of winning Grammys
Had to man up for my girl and drop my plan to change the world
Cuz they said that ain't realistic
Especially for misfits
Integrity was cut in half
Sit atop a lonely stump
Think about what could've been
I can't go back, but wе ain't done
We ain't done, yeah
We ain't done
We ain't done

Cuz I built my son a treehouse
And made it somеwhere he will always be found
He can be himself; Ima cherish his accomplishments
Got a new role, great man on my father shit

Ima tell him everything they never let me learn
And I'ma teach him how to swim in case the bridges ever burn
I know that one day, he gon' make it, and I'll see him at the top
Love my family forever, even after time stops
