Oh right, oh

Oh why na-da-da-da

I keep my head high

I got my wings to carry me

I don't know freedom

I want my dreams to rescue me

I keep my faith strong

I ask the Lord to follow me

I've been unfaithful

I don't know why you call on me

This is my canvas

I'ma paint it how I want it baby, oh I

This is my canvas

I'ma paint it, paint it, paint it, how I want it nigga

Fuck you 'cause there

There is no right or wrong

Only a song

I like to write alone

Be in my zone

Think back to Forest Hills, no perfect home

But the only thing like home I've ever known

Until they snatched it from my mama

And foreclosed her on the loan

I'm so sorry that I left you there to deal with that alone

I was up in New York City chasin' panties, gettin' dome

Had no clue what you was goin' through

How could you be so strong?

And how could I be so selfish, I know I can be so selfish

I could tell by how I treat you with my girl

Damn she so selfless, but she put up with my way

Because she loves me like you do

And though it do not always show

I love her just like I love you

And I need to treat you better

Wish you could live forever

So we could spend more time together

I love you mama

I keep my head high

I got my wings to carry me

I don't know freedom

I want my dreams to rescue me

I keep my faith strong

I ask the Lord to follow me

I've been unfaithful

I don't know why you call on me

Apparently, you believe in me

You believe in me

Apparently, you believe in me

And I thank you for it, oh, I

Another day another rhyme hoe

Another day another time zone

Today I woke up feelin' horny so it's only right

I got two bitches playin' on my trumbone

Keep up, never sure where the words would take me

Niggas eat 'em up, and regurgitate me

Shit jumped tight never slurred or lazy

Give a virgin the urge to rape me

Nigga please

Best friends really make great for enemies

My watch came niggas can't wait for one of these

I see you nigga, this ain't no Rolex, it's a AP nigga

I'm hot, dog, catch up to me nigga

Uh, couldn't resist

Aimed for the stars and I shouldn't have missed

But I was ridin' on fumes so I stopped by the moon

Now I'm sittin' on the hood of this bitch

Like thanks for the view

Waitin' on thanks from a few 'cause without me you wouldn't exist

You know that shit gave you the blueprint don't forget

Cole is your phone on zero percent

Going off, now niggas showin' off

Niggas swear they hard but they flowin' soft

I'm taking off like boing on a big ass Boeing

Gettin' head like a coin toss

Too easy

I keep my head high

I got my wings to carry me

I don't know freedom

I want my dreams to rescue me

I keep my faith strong

I ask the Lord to follow me

I've been unfaithful

I don't know why you call on me

Apparently, you believe in me

You believe in me

Apparently, you believe in me

And I thank you for it, oh, I
