Chasing My Dream
Hoodie Allen
Yeah,
And I swear to never let this moment pass me
I give it my all on these tracks like an athlete
Made it to the pros and they salary capped me
Mum said I should've stayed in school - Degrassi
Sorry Drizzy I just made it to the college path
But things ain't even adding up like it was college math
So gimme a minute to figure and I holla back
Where the non-believers, f*ck 'em, I never acknowledge that.
Knocking on the door. Jehovah's my witness.
And I'm forever gone so Hova will witness
I'm over my business, I'm entrepreneur-sh*t
'Cause she's my investment and damnit it's gorgeous
Can't get caught up in this world but I love it
A lot of people throwing in their hands like they puppets
All that sh*t change when the drum kicks
Shia labeouf transforming what we do into dumb hits
You know that I gotta go chasing my dream
Been doing it big since I was a teen
Moving too fast for y'all to stop me
Oh not me. Oh oh not me.
You know that I gotta go chasing my dream
Been doing it big since I was a teen
Moving too fast for y'all to stop me
Oh not me. Oh oh not me.
I never can say goodbye
Know know know know why
I never can say goodbye
Look I'm being honest sometimes it's easy to burn out
When you don't really know how the future will turn out
I been in school so they one thing that I learned now
Is that all the work I'm putting in will equal what I earn out
And that's just economics in the perfect universe
A place where every girl I meet is saying you the first
And the crowd is singing with me like they knew the verse
Thank the lord for gravity - it's grabbing me into the Earth
So even though I wanna be a star sun
I can never leave my town like a pardon
Because it made me who I am - Bar none
Tell Long Island I'm a burn it down like arson
So we can raise it back up like it's our son
Make 'em play our song every day like it's parson
Came a long way but I still feel far
I hope they understand how real we are.
You know that I gotta go chasing my dream
Been doing it big since I was a teen
Moving too fast for y'all to stop me
Oh not me. Oh oh not me.
You know that I gotta go chasing my dream
Been doing it big since I was a teen
Moving too fast for y'all to stop me
Oh not me. Oh oh not me.
I never can say goodbye
Know know know know why
I never can say goodbye
Uh You know the feeling when the buzz on vibrate
Spanish girls say I'm one fine hombre
What could be better than this? Baby 'cause I'm great.
Take 'em out to dinner - it didn't matter if I'm late
'Cause you'll wait. I don't even play son
Ain't no competition - I got the race won
Haters want to shoot me down with they ray guns
I pull out the ray-bans - you ain't gonna say nuh'in.
You know that I gotta go chasing my dream
Been doing it big since I was a teen
Moving too fast for y'all to stop me
Oh not me. Oh oh not me.
You know that I gotta go chasing my dream
Been doing it big since I was a teen
Moving too fast for y'all to stop me
Oh not me. Oh oh not me.
I never can say goodbye
Know know know know why
I never can say goodbye
