BRIDGE : derrick! + Krugar Gush
If a never music
Mih woulda dead a suicide ting’
Mih prolly wouldn’t lef’ my scheme
And all who use to doubt now wanna be mih friend dem
From dem fucking picture my dream
Music make me feel like king
Mih coulda never cool like breeze
All ah mih sweet memories come from music
Plus dawg, this is my biz
VERSE ONE : BRAM
Imagination of the future got me working on a new life
So I had to make arrangements, apprehending how I’ll be like
Focus never mutual working hard became habitual
Contemplating on benefits of making success a ritual
Listen to yourself, inner voice is all I’m saying
Not only be a believer but also you keep on praying
They’ll judge you by the rest if you’ll insist on complaining
Better identify your strength if you want blessings to flow in
Rolling with unheavenly faith
Turned spiritual then moment I noticed I was blessed
God’s son, gift was musical
Showcasing his strength
Believe the invisible and anything you want you can get
I had to change the way I read them up, hit them
No compromise on unity, cause I don’t wanna divide
Succeeding without enemies, I had to kick them out
In the route of attaining excellence, I made them proud…
CHORUS : Krugar Gush, derrick!
If a never music
Mih woulda dead a suicide ting’
Mih probably wouldn’t lef’ my scheme
And all who use to doubt now wanna be mih friend dem
From dem fucking picture my dream
Music make me feel like king
Mih coulda never cool like breeze
All ah mih sweet memories come from music
Plus dawg, this is my biz
VERSE TWO : derrick!
Have you ever had a source of pain that scourges you from within?
A passion so deep at the bottom of it, a molten desire bubbling
From the pits of your stomach, and guts telling you that your journey is only but starting
Understand this (understand this…)
I’m closing my eyes, I picture me on stages (stages)
I believe in this so much, the horse on the track I put a bet on me— (seabiscuit)
I did relax, something pull me back
Knock me out, telling me I am the greatest— and then I woke to
Chasing pleasures, women— neglecting my purpose
And when it dawned on me, it was a new day
I moved forward precautious
Outspokenly told them I needed to take that risk
They shot me down from the heights I put myself on
Now I’m clingin’ on, hopes and dream
This is the ground I fall on
Waxing my wings
They tell me I never learn; “how many times will you fall?”
The damage is done; as many as I get back up to my feet— til I don’t fall no more
Until the last man standing is I
They called my dreams madness, bullshit, a fantasy
Broke my heart doing love gymnastics
Mind was messy, detached from my body—
I had to go plug out
For a minute, I lost sight of my path
I got it!— (I got it now)
Running out the door screaming, “it’s alive!”
I swore to never shut my dream out for nobodii
I showed them how big I are, too big to shoot them down
I bulletproof, I am the armor
ALL DREAM LIVES MATTER… BECAUSE (ALL DREAM LIVES MATTER. ALL DREAM LIVES MATTER)
HOOK : Krugar Gush, derrick!
If a never music
Mih woulda dead a suicide ting’
Mih probably wouldn’t lef’ my scheme
And all who use to doubt now wanna be mih friend dem
From dem fucking picture my dream
Music make me feel like king
Mih coulda never cool like breeze
All ah mih sweet memories come from music
Plus dawg, this is my biz
