Expectations lyrics
by DC3
[Intro]
You've heard it multiple times
Be a doctor, this they weren't expecting
I'm telling mumzy bout my passion
There's no time for resting
Yo whats the word up in my lane was near to curbs
They tried to aim for man but
I ain't into chat
I learned to keep it stepping
Seen guys gain their strength from another man's weakness
That can't run J-U double G, jugging every week
Bread up on my mind since I was young
I was greedy for seconds
Nowadays it's seconds on my plate to see my people eat
[Verse 1]
Reason to why I grind
Everyday I'm tryna see loads
Seen bare potential and waste it
That's how it be bro
Put that on gang
Aim is to get out go ask Jordan Peele
Us never them ignore their nopes I had to reload
Still I got one shot like it's a free throw
A menace on the flow
I feel like Denis you would've thought I'm linked with Beano
Ain't to good at mathematics
Still I don't need no number line to get back to a ten when I be feeling I'm on zero
Tell my people dem don't struggle nah
Cos I'm still
Paving a lane for my name
I can't sleep I love hustle hard
Still I'm shining through the dark
I sympathise to Tony Stark
We've both got holes to fill that's empty
Trying just to heal my heart, it's crazy
Used to think if I weren't one of them that I can't run with them
See I weren't moving smart
Began a new wave
Tell me why would I now leave a pool
I couldn't manage her (manager) I'm out the field call me Steven Gerrard
[Verse 2]
Nah what do you expect from me
A real battle giving love in a world that's filled with hate and loads of jealousy
I try minimising enemies
Avoiding life's cycle
If I'm trapped and I get caught it's wraps cos that's the end of me
Heart is racing rapidly
I know I've got a point to prove
I'll keep it real
If all you do is talking what's your point of view
Was like a coyote chasing my goal while they gave me a bruise
Animal cruelty, couldn't jack it (jacket) like Canada Goose
Done it before now I'm supposed to do it for the generations
No relations
Making my own plans, hows that for segregation
Kinda really hard to hold it down with all these expectations on me
(Kno-Kno-Knockzz turn it up)
[Outro]
Cos still I'm tryna be better
Cos better is what they want from me
This that path that you're choosing
Well you're losing, that's their honesty
Is it really destined for me
Come to pass like it's prophecies
Cut me off the harness, set me free
There's nothing that's stopping me
