Peace world (humbling, shows how peaceful he is)
New day, new mission (every day he is striving for greatness)
Go for yours (sending a message to his fans to follow their dreams)
Good morning, where the breakfast at, I’m starving
Pour me up a glass of simply orange, you know the routine
I only vibe to the classics, they marvel
That’s how I get the day started (he starts his day with old classics and orange juice)
Finish up this food, open up the blinds in my bedroom
And let the sunlight shine through
Playing for the homies ‘cause I understand you gotta climb,
fool
I’m 100% behind you, (he is 100% behind someone putting effort into their future)
we do this for a higher purpose
we do this for a higher purpose
The lower homie say he tired of working
Soon it will pay off, it’s all worth it
Just need that positive push, (his friend said he is tired of working but all he really needs is a push in the right direction because it will all pay off soon)
going to jail is a horrible look
going to jail is a horrible look
Stuck in the game, stay surrounded by crooks (going to jail is quite obviously a bad thing, 'stuck in the game' referring to the drug game as once you get in; 'start doing/selling drugs' its hard to get out which is why you'll end up surrounded by crooks.)
Don’t watch the news, it keeps me stressing and depressed
Sad news hurts my soul like a lump in my chest
Don’t get discouraged lil’ homie, we blessed
Everything you going through now, it’s only a test
See, I’m just tryna make today
Better than yesterday
Better than yesterday
Let’s make today
Better than yesterday
Better than yesterday
Let’s make today
Better than yesterday
Better than yesterday
Let’s make today
Better than yesterday
Better than yesterday
(chorus; repeating the fact that he is just trying to make a positive change)
Every time I’m chilling with pop Dukes I get inspired by his
stories (his grandfathers stories are inspiring)
Peace to all the fallen soldiers that came before me (R.I.P to all of the gang members and his friends that grew up in the 'struggle')
He always say it was the good old days, this four beers
kinda remind you of Frankie and Maze
The grey hair represents wisdom, we living
The world is yours, son, and can’t nobody tell you different (his grandfather giving him positive words)
Soaking up the game like a sponge, can’t forget my day one (remembering every word his grandfather is telling him and remembering every day of his early rap career)
This is where I came from, they told me I was special
My brother used to hustle sun up to sun down and said I
better not get you
Look me in the eye, said this ain’t for you, find something
better to do
Like focus on your future
I represent the people, I’m coming with an army
Forget what they saying ‘cause your comments will never harm
me
I would’ve been saying something if I needed your help
But everything you niggas offering, I do for myself (he is independent and works for everything he wants/needs)
Try to make a strong connection so my presence is felt (through his lyrics he is trying to make a connection with his fans so his positive message is absorbed effectively)
My mentality is get it yourself
Fresh daily, salvage denim with the cuff and my runaway
chucks
Just to show it off in public, it’s a must, we live it up (buys new shoes and clothes just to show it off in public 'we live it up' living a good life)
Fast bucks, stack it up, share the wealth with the team,
living the African American dream (living the African American dream which is usually to make it out of the 'ghetto' and make a good honest living)
Gotta stay on point and keep your game intact (telling you that you have to stay focused and keep your life on the right path)
Sometimes it could be your own people holding you back
Or maybe it’s you, I mean maybe it’s you (sometimes your friends or the people you associate yourself are the ones holding you back, OR maybe you are the only one holding yourself back from your dreams)
I say you gotta stay on point and keep your game intact
Sometimes it could be your own people holding you back
Or maybe it’s you, I said maybe it’s you
I say you gotta stay on point and keep your game intact
Sometimes it could be your own people holding you back
See, we’re just tryna make today
Better than yesterday
Better than yesterday
Let’s make today
Better than yesterday
Better than yesterday
Let’s make today
Better than yesterday
Better than yesterday
Let’s make today
Better than yesterday
Better than yesterday
