If you look to the stars, you'll find that your not far from me And if you follow your heart, you'll find that you'll be one of them And not long And not long And not long And not long And not long Long days half sober nights Unsigned performing at every open mic God is all I needed to believe in me Haters I tuned them out they were on another frequency My momma never winded my decision And all the bright lights never blinded out my vision Music was my passion and my first crush I'm just tryna ride the waves baby surfs up When I'm down music gets me worked up Plus in all my shows it gets womans to pull they skirts up What can I say I'm turnt up I'm on fire these other rappers is burnt up If you look to the stars, you'll find that your not far from me And if you follow your heart, you'll find that you'll be one of them And not long And not long And not long And not long And not long Yeah what an imagination I'm a dreamer losing my concentration Head in the clouds to trace my observations Just connect the dots to all of the constellations Looking for signs that's astrological And I don't dream big my dreams are astronomical So when critics write articles of my chronicles I wonder if my hunger is felt in they abdominals Hiding from life daily distractions Where thoughs become things from the power of attraction And I'm attracted to money and beautiful woman Ha and toasting to new beginnings, yeah If you look to the stars, you'll find that your not far from me And if you follow your heart, you'll find that you'll be one of them And not long And not long And not long And not long And not long Look its not long til the fights over The turbulence is non stop till the flights over So when passengers panic just stay silent And realize its never too late to become the pilot I fly higher take control of my destiny The first step I needed me to invest in me Its still an every day struggle for wealth I'd rather struggle to working for me than working for someone else And I'm steady tryna ease the stress So I open up all the doors with the key to success If it hasn't been done then I'mma do it first Cuz I'm the master of the Ludaverse If you look to the stars, you'll find that your not far from me And if you follow your heart, you'll find that you'll be one of them And not long And not long And not long And not long And not long
