"Chasing" lyrics
Starlito & Bandplay Lyrics
I'm chasing wisdom
I'm chasing light
Walking through the shadows
'Til the stars ignite
Can't tell the dark from the bright
Pour out my heart on the mic
You in the army or the band?
Look how we march, but don't fight
How you a star with no stripes?
All bark, with no bite
Gotta charge interest, with the price
I'ma go Bart Simpson with the ice
Nah, left Guitar Center got to writing
Grind hard, fuckin' right
Staying up 'til the sun rise
But it ain't happen overnight
Ridin' 'round catchin' bites
Flighting bumping 'Gangsta Muzik'
Under the influence, told me 'Do it Big'
Might not lead the league in scoring
But yeah, for sure I got a few assists
Fuck all that beef shit
If it's money to get, we can coexist
Black sheep, this is leadership
We don't even know what freedom is
Keep us stupid, we gon' keep 'em rich
Keep 'em rich
Keep us stupid, we gon' keep 'em rich
I'm chasing wisdom
And I'm chasing light
Walking through the shadows
'Til the stars ignite
Lito
It's only bad news on the news
Smut and gossip on the web
I been droppin' subtle clues
I guess they left me on "Read"
Could've left it unsaid
You ain't gotta listen, too proud to beg
Figured I could learn a lot from a fool
Broke people too
If you ain't got the bread
What I gotta do or what not to?
Soon as I get it
End up losin'
First thing first
I'm makin' excuses
Next, learn from it
Then improve it
Everything I do
I put it in my music
Now I got a kid
Know that it's confusing
People see me out
She say, 'Who was that?'
I say, 'I don't know'
But they really knew me
Hope they see I grew, constant evolution
Re-up and repeat, call that repetition
Earned my reputation
Workin' like a slave, where the reparations?
That or restitution
We don't need no education
At least not from institutions
Few degrees school of hard knocks
Believe it or not, I'm still a student
I'm chasing wisdom
I'm chasing light
Walking through the shadows
'Til the stars ignite
I'm chasing light
Walking through the shadows
'Til the stars ignite
Can't tell the dark from the bright
Pour out my heart on the mic
You in the army or the band?
Look how we march, but don't fight
How you a star with no stripes?
All bark, with no bite
Gotta charge interest, with the price
I'ma go Bart Simpson with the ice
Nah, left Guitar Center got to writing
Grind hard, fuckin' right
Staying up 'til the sun rise
But it ain't happen overnight
Ridin' 'round catchin' bites
Flighting bumping 'Gangsta Muzik'
Under the influence, told me 'Do it Big'

But yeah, for sure I got a few assists
Fuck all that beef shit
If it's money to get, we can coexist
Black sheep, this is leadership
We don't even know what freedom is
Keep us stupid, we gon' keep 'em rich
Keep 'em rich
Keep us stupid, we gon' keep 'em rich
I'm chasing wisdom
And I'm chasing light
Walking through the shadows
