Doubtful
It's not called me being absorbed with myself
It's having confidence in ME first before anybody else
Cause nobody else is there when it all falls down
But when life is looking up every body comes right back around
U go from debated on and hated on
They had your number stored but not your name in the phone
From being adored to the one they are waiting on
And people say you have changed
That's cause when things change only the people who don't grow are
the ones who stay the same
People so comfortable being germane and inane
Then they mad at me for not viewing myself the same
But I don't really care that's why I'm taking it here
Naysayers and negativity I don't fear
I've heard my whole life that I wouldn't make it
Now that I've made it of course I'm a little jaded
I'm the product of what "doubt" and "hate"
created
Because they hated without a doubt any product I created
Now I create hate with my success
Didn't do it on my own Lord knows I'm blessed
And I'm blessed enough to know the difference from the real and
the rest
And I'm really interested in what's up next
I can forgive but I don't forget- not even one name or situation
Feet up at my destination as my destiny is waiting
I've Got Dreams
I've got dreams
Similar to the one Martin Luther's seen
Into the future of being
Bright
Successful
Despite nights
That get so stressful
Like Mike
To be special
In place of likes
To eventually grow
I've got dreams to beam in this glory
This is my story
With a happy ending
Tired of pretending
I've got dreams that I'm gonna be different
I've got dreams that I can make it
I've got dreams that they can never take it
Or turn it into a nightmare
Cause in my dreams the haters aren't there
And I really don't care
In the midst of doubt I stare
With No Fear
Not speaking of clothes
But dreams you know I've got those
I've got dreams that they'll get my message
I've got dreams that I'll get connected
Be respected and protected
But the people that have disrespected I've disinfected
But my dreams often get neglected
And dissected
I've got dreams that there's no fights
No wrongs or rights
And I don't really care because I'm the one that's dreaming
tonight
Clouds
Cloudy Vision
I've been in a daze these days
Been past the rage
As they say
What's meant to be will be
But if that rings true to me
Then Its meant for me to be
In a place of solitude
Exposing my feelings - nude
Keeping it real at all times - rude
Coming to terms with myself
That I owe it to myself
And nobody else
But we living to hear other people's opinions that don't matter
We living for material things that don't matter
We living for who's pockets, girls backside or guys front side is
fatter
At the top of the ladder
So of course you look down
You appreciate it that much more when you started from the ground
Perfect Stranger
She was such a distant fantasy
The type that u would only see in your fantasies
So pure so beautiful so elegant
So smart so sweet so heaven sent
So classy not trashy
Finer than wine
And in these fantasies of mind she was always mine
But in reality she was just a stranger just a memory
Not even a friend a to me
And in that moment of a glance I wondered if it was all meant to
be
In her eyes I saw mine
It was like the stop of time
And nothing else mattered
But she didn't even know it
We barely know each other and I can't even show it
Impulsive love is playing with fire-I know the danger
And in her eyes I was inspired - that perfect stranger
Inner Voice
They say I'm arrogant as hell.
I say it's that type of confidence that helped me prevail.
They say I think too highly of myself. I say well if u don't how can u earn the respect of someone else?
They said all I do is boast and brag and show off. I say I keep it real this isn't a show I never turn on or off.
They say I'm selfish I care for no one else . I just laugh at that because I'm usually the first to help.
They say I don't have feelings I think it's a game. I say bad times are a part of life we should enjoy times when we don't endure pain.
They said I act negative and I can be a hater. That's pretty funny because optimism is a part of nature.
They say I'm a player and I'm a ladies man . I just say I'm looking for the right lady man .
They said I couldn't do it they said I couldn't make it they said that I was nothing they said that I was fakin. They said I didn't have it said it couldn't be done , they fed everybody at the table and when it was my turn they gave me none. They looked down at me said I was just like the others . They said I wouldn't amount to anything I was just another "brother."
I said they can look down but I'm gonna climb on up, I said I hope they can fight forever because I won't give up. I said I wouldn't take being an average man , so I got credentials and certifications- that's not average man.
They said I was destined to lose not win. I said it's a good thing I didn't listen to them.
