Ab-Soul, JaVonté - Picture That lyrics

Shoot for the moon even if you miss
You'll be amongst the stars
Shoot for the moon even if you miss
You'll be amongst the stars
Shoot for the moon
Even if you miss, you'll be

If you ain't got a dollar to your name
Can you maintain? Are you lost
Are all your thoughts on the same train?
I been riding it out, despite the amount
I've yet to acquire in my checking account
They checking me out, they peeping my game
I paid my dues
I even kept my receipt and my change
My life is like a movie if
Siskel hate it then sue me fuck a Maybach
I'm straight in the back of this hooptie
It started out a hobby, became my life
Left my emotions, lonesome
Hence the pain I write
Some call it therapy, some call it rap music
I call it hip-hop, no, no, no trap music
You never seen me heat the
Pot to whip the rock
You never seen me creeping down
Your block with the Glock
You never seen no diamonds in my
Chain or in my watch
You never seen me in a G5 or
On a yacht but picture that

Picture this, picture being poor
Picture being rich
Picture having more, picture not having shit
Picture that, what a sight
To see, picture you, picture me
Picture us, picture we, together at the top
Where we should be

Speaking of being at the top, champagne
Bottoms up i take that back, cause matter of
Fact, this E and J, dollar shot
Is hitting the spot like a rave
My real niggas give me props
Cause I ain't afraid to say what I
Am and what I am not you had her not
I had like seven dollars knowin I'mma drop
Five on that session as soon as
A chizzle hit the block
Chocolate Swisher burn slow though I
Hope it never stop so I can get high forever
And accomplish my endeavors
Niggas pulling up in Benzes
Telling me that I'm the one
I'm guessing when my clock climaxes
Then my time'll come
I never shot a gun but I
Be killing all y'all raps
Cause all y'all wack
I be jogging on all y'all tracks
I mean so many lines that, I
Could call you all back, yeah
I could send you all a fax, with all facts
Budget tighter than my bitch's
All black bra strap
Grab a digital camera and picture that

Picture that picture this
Picture being poor, picture being rich
Picture having more, picture not having shit
Picture that, what a sight
To see, picture you, picture me
Picture us, picture we, together at the top
Where we should be

Shoot for the moon even if you miss
You'll be amongst the stars
(Know I'm trying to make it to the top baby)
Shoot for the moon (Top Dawg Entertainment)
Even if you miss
(Top notch) you'll be amongst the stars
(Soul) shoot for the moon
Even if you miss, you'll be

In the presence of my gifted ass
Incredible gift of gab
Don't have a cent to spare
But pull up a chair, i'll take you back
To where my Christmases was full of gifts
I surely had left Santa milk and cookies
We miss you Bernie Mac
Left him a letter and what do you know
He even wrote my back
I don't remember what it said
But the point is that
Soon as I had to take the
Role for my own acts it seemed as though
All my presents started gradually
Turning into coal, I graduated with a car
Four years later that mothafucka's
Stuck in park
I missed the days we cut through the
Alley to the Del Amo park
Or further than that, Nick at Nite
Are you Afraid of the Dark?
I keep these memories on my
Mind cause they define me
Like Dictionarycom, bliss kisses ignorance
Pay them unless your intelligent and her
Pussy be wet as shit
You would come in a flash
Please hold the flash, but picture that

Picture that picture this
Picture being poor, picture being rich
Picture having more, picture not having shit
Picture that, what a sight
To see, picture you, picture me
Picture us, picture we, together at the top
Where we should be

Photogenic I are, no need to be camera shy
Hand on the bible, I ain't telling a lie
We only got one, so I'm living my life
Photogenic I are, no need to be camera shy
Remember where I been, where I'm going
And I only got one, so I'm living my life
