DE'WAYNE - Ok Not To Be Ok lyrics
[DE'WAYNE - Ok Not To Be Ok lyrics]
I really wish they told me how this life was
Out In Hollywood they getting
Lost in these nightclubs
My team keep me in the
Stu working day and night
I notice when you chasing a
Dream people a leave
Ya side if it ain't going
Right but I'll be alright
I still got my brothers back
Yo that shit for life
And if it wasn't for this pen
Wonder would I be me
Because this art really set us
Free mentally and physically
In 5 years who will I
Be hopefully not stranded
Tryna crawl back to the sea
I only pray you see
The bigger picture I'm not just
A nigga more like Basquiat
On this canvas now listen to my scriptures
I give you real shit I know you feel this
I'm not a artist tryna catch the
Wave on yo field trip
Nah De'Wayne Jackson up in my own lane
These stories is my pain art is no game look
Starting off what you gotta do to fit in
Take 5 years for your peers just to listen
Went from doing talent shows
Vids in the kitchen
Never thought I leave Spring and
Texas not to mention
Had to leave my love also leave my mother
8 siblings to my name looking
Up to they brother
No pressure cause you got it all you hearing
The kid that never had a chance to ball
So if I slip that's our
Chance but I never fall
Pigeon toed and all I really
Do it all my nigga
Against the odds or whatever in
This space all alone
With blind faith and these notes that
I write up in my phone
Yo this shit gone be presidential
Uh cause I'm tired
Of Hearing the word potential cause
I don't fear no man
When I'm on these instrumentals no killer
But I'm a criminal with a
Fucking pencil Save IT LOOK
Setting the standard right I'm
Tryna raise the bar
I hear you talking flashy cars
But yo who are you
I can tell you a star look
At they how they follow you
You my brother I don't want this
Game to really swallow you
This from the 19 year old
Hear to impact the world
And save the art I'm a hero really
Because I use to be a zero and now I'm on 10
Tryna put my city on the map
And let the world in it's
Wavy yeah that was art
Out In Hollywood they getting
Lost in these nightclubs
My team keep me in the
Stu working day and night
I notice when you chasing a
Dream people a leave
Ya side if it ain't going
Right but I'll be alright
I still got my brothers back
Yo that shit for life
And if it wasn't for this pen
Wonder would I be me
Because this art really set us
Free mentally and physically
In 5 years who will I
Be hopefully not stranded
Tryna crawl back to the sea
I only pray you see
The bigger picture I'm not just
A nigga more like Basquiat
On this canvas now listen to my scriptures
I give you real shit I know you feel this
I'm not a artist tryna catch the
