[Intro]
Mmmm
Ooooh yeahhh
Oooooooooh
Jre Riley, Denny Lanez, lets pray
[Verse1: Denny Lanez]
These are the ambitions of a 6 year old
Learning things about a father that I didn't know
Fast forward now feeling like I'm getting old
Cause my peers love to party while I sit at home
I can only be myself When I sit alone
Write a song now Im back feeling like before
I could always get a job & clock in right at 4
But that ain't gonna get my mama that new Michael Kors
Yeah, My mother birth me in October
This was '96 & when the oxygen stopped flowin
Coulda died in that hospital but I'm not goin
& I even learn that about that shit till i got older
& now I'm focused on my lifes purpose
Im putting it in these verses
& mama makin me nervous she barely scratchin the surface
They look at me like a circus
But I signed up for it
& Ima soak it in till my times up boy
[Hook: Denny Lanez]
No I don't forget so please don't make assumptions
People pray for fame but we just pray for comfort, ....
We just pray for comfort, Yeah...
Toast to the day now that we finally function, Live without a budget
We just prayed for comfort
We just pray for comfort .... We jus, we jus ...
[Verse2: Denny Lanez]
Hearing other kids talkin bout what they did over the summer
& it was just me & my mother
Never been to disneyland , never seem to understand why we wasn't in discussions
This the mind of a youngin
Out at recess
Writing rhymes to relieve stress
Battling my friends who ain't peek yet
But seeing where they at in life funny cause it makes sense
Before u ride a wave ya gotta get ya feet wet, look
I knew I was built different, & mama I dont expect this all to make sense
But i ain't Giving up a dream working for a nigga who chased his
Ain't been the same since i told myself
To give my mama company I wanna clone myself
Sometimes i ain't home enough
Its The ones that shine bright have the darkest thoughts
Its The ones that talk alot have the smallest barks
[Bridge: Denny Lanez]
Got too much shit on the line
I just work on these songs while I'm sitting inside
& I'm sitting beside myself
I tend to do better when im by myself
Had to find myself
Had to make thru life never had friends
& my cousin had to out run a mac-10
Track meets everyday over black tims, bang bang bang bang bang
