High Speed

I was born up in the hills
Then was brought right back to earth
Family jumpin home to home
But still we always made it work
And I know so many really had it bad
So I’m blessed to say that as a kid I always had a chance
My parents gave me all the tools
And said you gotta run with them
They always told me to provide
And show them you’re your fathers son
What can I say, one mistake gets me feelin so ashamed
Gotta get this check I guess that that’s the only way
Lately swear the only pace I ever go is high speed
Days are flashing by I need the time please
On my way to places only I see
Signs up on the road that’s all that I need
Lately swear the only pace I ever go is high speed
Days are flashing by I need the time please
On my way to places only I see
Signs up on the road that’s all that I need
Know I spent to much time
Sittin thinkin bout the past
When I’m lookin at it now I was just scared of livin fast
Cause I could see the ones around me
Always working it would show
By them putting stress on others
The effects a domino
But ima get my stack right
Ima do it my way
Hope it’s not to late to pull ahead up on this highway
They saw me head down from the jump
Now all that ground that I had lost it seems I’m finally catching up
I make 3 incomes from a mic
I’ll show you what my mind can do
Causing shock on all their faces
You would think I’m picachu
I’m doin things I thought I’d never be
I’m up on stages hittin melodies
Then I hit the road takin knowledge that they’re telling me
They’re tellin me
Swear you’ll be fine when you fallback
Cause it all takes time
Well I’m going for it now
You catch me jumping out the window
When you see me land then you might think I’m crazy but
Lately swear the only pace I ever go is high speed
Days are flashing by I need the time please
On my way to places only I see
Signs up on the road that’s all that I need
Lately swear the only pace I ever go is high speed
Days are flashing by I need the time please
On my way to places only I see
Signs up on the road that’s all that I need
