Thoughts from a Balcony

Lyrics

It was all about a dream
 Turned into reality, double-cup of lean
 Ugh
 Lemme get a one-way ticket, haven't picked a destination
 I'm just tryna catch the train before it has to leave the station
 Packin' no bags, nothin' but the clothes on my back
 With a Cognac, let me sip it, tryin' to relax
 Red wine up in my glass plus Filet Mignon
 I got army right up under me, I'm Genghis Khan
 Yeah, it's me against the world, I guess I'll take them on
 I might stop and see my girl, but I ain't stayin' long
 What if I'm gone, what the fuck you gon' think then?
 I told my story, put my life inside this ink pen
 Said I'll make it big when, everybody know me
 Well, I made it big and, everybody phony
 Haha, so could you pour me? I need a cup
 No, none of that liquor, mixin' purple stuff
 I could talk my pain, but would it hurt too much
 Go 'head, judge me, hate cost money, but this love free
 They just dreams, turn 'em to reality
 Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony
 Looking at the sky, thinkin' it could all be mine
 All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?
 They just dreams, turn 'em to reality
 Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony
 Looking at the street, thinkin' it could all be mine
 All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?
 What the-, what the fuck is time?
 Ask 'em, what the fuck is time? (I don't know)
 What the fuck is time?
 I ask 'em, what the fuck is time?
 What do you do when you think you could be an icon?
 Because all these people get to screamin' with the lights on
 Like they just seen a ghost, earn my stripes, zebra coat
 Racin' to the gate but my flight gone
 Now these writers taking shots without a Nikon
 But I don't fight though, figure it's a typo
 Seems we in some shit now, gonna be alright though
 Potion in my sprite, then my night slows, down, down
 See, that's exactly what I need
 My khaki's filled with cheese, my homie Sap is on the beat
 Like it was "Donald Trump", a fucking hit but I call it love
 They throw it on when I'm walking in the club
 Hey, this the 'Burgh shit, I don't deserve this
 Well, I don't think you lookin' far beyond the surface
 Learn quick, now I'm big time
 Fill your cup up, and I'ma sip mine
 Fill it up with dreams, turn 'em to reality
 Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony
 Looking at the sky, thinkin' it could all be mine
 All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?
 They just dreams, turn 'em to reality
 Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony
 Looking at the street, thinkin' it could all be mine
 All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?
 What the-, what the fuck is time?
 Ask 'em, what the fuck is time? (I don't know)
 What the fuck is time?
 I ask 'em, what the fuck is time? (A'ight)
