Focused

[Verse 1] When they're kicking down doors, I'm jumping out of windows I ain't never trust nobody like my kin folk I ain't never love no woman like mama I tell em' from the get-go, I ain't with the drama Try to live right, cause I ain't with the bad karma Past midnight, but I got the insomnia Thinking bout this chick from high school named Veronica Dominican with hazel eyes. Should have went to prom with her Pardon me, these are just my thoughts at 4 in the morning I ain't even close to yawning Almost gave up on balling When I realized I'd never be close to Jordan Nah, I ain't a quitter, had to change my game Big man learning how to go hard in the paint Far from a saint But I'm blessed with these bars I create Illustrating em' for y'all to relate [Hook] Focused on the prize Seem so close when I open up my eyes Dreams got me hoping for a better day I never say life is easy But it's all so simple, you gotta believe me [Verse 2] Now as my thoughts unravel Getting lost in my travels I surrender. Feel my knees being forced to the gravel Say a prayer for the roses growing out the concrete Touche. Get your girl a bouquet And watch her eyes water boy, no Boucher Tell the stress you gotta go today Kick push it to the curb if you know Lupe Got a brother losing hair, with no toupee Now asked Negrodamus why all black men are bald Cause society won't get up off the black man's balls Let that soak in I say "Black out." They say "Go in!" It's just Hip Hop, I ain't boasting I don't hear that tic toc, fix that broken Clock with no hands. Then you'll notice We're running out of time, so I must stay. Must stay... [Hook]
