"Sell My Dreams"

Look, where I'm from you either running routes or you running bases
Or you stepping back like James Harden with the hesitation
Just because you gifted don't really mean that you gon' make it
Gotta make time this hard work and dedication
Everybody want the sauce but don't wanna follow the recipe
When I'm in the kitchen cooking up the vision
Put my foot up in it they like how he did it
Gotta make it happen can't just say you will
I get straight to action like I'm rollin' film
I can't get distracted this is more than passion this was meant to be
Got me pouring out 'till I'm empty
You could try to tell me who I'll never be
But I'm limit-free, I can't limit me
I got more inside like a limousine
People try to talk I don't hear a thing
'Cause they can't explain what they never seen
I can't let myself get in the way

No, I can't sell my dreams, nah
Know who I'm meant to be, yah
As long as I still believe, yah
There's more to life than what we see yeah, yeah
No, I can't sell my dreams, nah
Know who I'm meant to be, yah
As long as I still believe, yah
There's more to life than what we see yeah, yeah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah
I can't take no L's

Bounce back like oh well
Back up like who fell?
Where I'm from you either off to college or you at the crib
And your people telling you to study what's gon' bring the money in
There's more to life than stacking m's
But you don't know what it is
We was taught to get it how we live get the bag and spend again
Everybody tryna flex I'm tryna invest and flip that
Sit back, Abba he tell me the moves I sprint that
Not the cellular but whenever I leave him a message he hit back
He told me don't chase cash 'cause the gift that he gave me is more than I need
Only rats chase cheese
I'm sorry, no I am not chasing the cheddar
Told my homies to get up
We here for a purpose our lives could be better
And stop spraying barettas
I remember when I used to be a finesser
'Till I switched up my mental and I realised my father he own everything
I stopped blowing the trees 'cause there's things you don't do when you move like a king
I do elegant things before I get in the sheets I'ma buy her a ring
Gotta stick to the mission
I know who I am, I'ma follow the vision
Used to give up the quickest
'Till I opened my eyes started paying attention
Everybody want the sauce but don't wanna follow the recipe
When I'm in the kitchen put my foot in it
I gotta give it my everything
Ain't no way you could take this from me
I don't care how much you paying me

No, I can't sell my dreams, nah
Know who I'm meant to be, yah
As long as I still believe, yah
There's more to life than what we see yeah, yeah
No, I can't sell my dreams, nah
Know who I'm meant to be, yah
As long as I still believe, yah
There's more to life than what we see yeah, yeah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah
I can't take no L's
