GLASS CEILINGS

Lyrics

The summer of 2011, I lost everything and I witnessed the drought
 Totaled my vehicle out on the road
 I barely could breathe when they mentioned amounts
 Look to the sky, know I need help
 Look for the sun, all I get is the clouds
 Called up my sister when I hit the campus
 she answered the phone and hit the account
 Now I'm back up
 Looked at my plan and adjust
 It got so harder to trust
 Cancel my friends after the graduation
 Cause when you a giver, it's never enough
 I had nothin' to say
 Slept in a garden of snakes
 Far from me playin' it safe
 I was runnin' from God, His plan and His call
 I didn't even know He was keepin' me safe
 I hit the bottom, I called up my mama
 She gave me the truth and was prayin' for me
 Life aint game, but you in the circle
 Runnin' from purpose and playin' for keeps
 They scream "YOLO", I went solo
 That same night, I went and dropped to my knees
 The weight of the world I kept on my shoulders
 For all of my life, was traded for peace
 Ahem
 Yeah, cool
 Yeah, uh
 The game getting pressed like articles
 Yeah, out for delivery, take it where Martians go
 They want to limit me, I'm where the ceiling be
 He been toe-tagging all of my enemies
 I've been body bagging up the energy
 I'm in the streets like a city with Mardi Gras, uh, yeah, huh
 Out in the crowd, ain't no more turning it down, huh, yeah, huh
 You not a king, I don't see the thorns in your crown, huh, yeah, huh
 It ain't a show when the troops come to your town, huh, yeah, huh
 A new Heaven and Earth
 I'm gon' live life in the clouds, yeah, yeah
 But anyway, I reach for a mic and dinner plate
 Heaven my home and the house so big
 I'ma need a tour like I'm selling dates (Hoo, woah, woah)
 Hold that thought, I meditate
 Lost my way in 2013
 Got the key of life, that's a better place (Yeah)
 I'm really from that bottom
 I ain't have a dad with the richest rags, so I focus on what matters
 And my coach put me in
 Now I'm on the field and I got 'em
 Well, I guess it's safe to say
 It's really about to be a problem
 Uh, yeah
