Dreamville, Omen - Ballin In Newport lyrics
[Dreamville, Omen - Ballin In Newport lyrics]
Whether it's 23, 24, 6, 8, 30
It's all destined for the Hall of Fame
Been together since age nine
The brothers I never had
Times forever last inside my paragraphs
Ballin' in Newport
Was barely aware in class
I'm tryna hoop
My mind stuck in this hourglass
None of us had our dad, I had my step-pops
Didn't know what I had
He never flip-flopped
On giving me what I lacked
When I hit pit stops my family always there
Studying hip-hop upstairs in my granny pad
I got a new love and
This ain't ain't heaven's dance
Feeling this avalanche taming in wonderland
Music's in my blood
The flow is genetic thin
Poppa was a Mo-Town singin'
Heartbreaker from the Chi
Soon to be shot on stage when
I was five or six
Survived it, saw a bright light in silence
To this day he vividly describes it
How could I be godless? My
Mother is a goddess
Went away to college, now I'm my own pilot
Brothers that I never had
Went to different schools
Now when I feel the blues don't
Know who to talk to
Life never came with a
Walkthrough strategy guide
Moved out to New York with no family ties
I'm on my own, no time to watch Family Guy
I'm tryna blow, exactly how my sanity died
Tryna get known, thirsting for approval
It's usual
My pen touch your heart like voodoo
She said I was boring but
The feeling was mutual
Turn down King
Give a fuck what you're used to
Never ever felt so free
Never ever felt so me
(Gangsta Grillz)
Never ever felt so free
Never ever felt so me
Shit, we ballin' in Newport, free at last
Omen, talk to 'em, yeah
They say my ambiance is way too nonchalant
Faced all kinds of times
They thinkin' like dinosaurs
Loud as tyrannosaurus
Can't see how I got this far
Who's the model or prototype
I should source?
Nobody perfect here, what's on the surface?
Just some shit you work to
Build but I been searching
For what's been underneath my shield
Can't keep worshipping niggas
That's unhappy
Even if they got athlete
I always wanted to be even
If they'd out-rap me
More dollar signs, more bitches
I can't exactly
Follow what you say like
It's all satisfactory
Plus the rich and famous seem
To have the most tragedies
So what's the strategy for happiness now?
Need the master key
Somebody bring Khaled around
Fuck the past
Only focus on what's happenin' now
Unless what's happenin' now has got
You in debt and doubt
Know you chasing some dreams but
What you chasin' 'em for?
Every time you remember why you
Can't take yourself forward
I've connected with something deeper so
Now I need more
Give me peace, give me calm
And a Bentley Azure
Need a car as classic as these bars
From afar everything is a star
Gotta see with your heart
These bars cross you over like number 3
Never ever felt so free
Never ever felt so me
Dominate the whole game like KD
Make it look flawless like Kyrie
Never ever felt so free
Never ever felt so me
Welcome to the dynasty
