Travius Keandric - Greatness Lyrics

Hey, hey
Hey, hey! How did my life get here
So many sticks and stones
They want me to disappear
Hey, hey! They want my life unknown
I will not fade away
Ooohhh I can't wait
Don't you hate on my greatness
Don't you wait til I make it (don't you hate)
Don't you hate on my greatness
Don't you wait til I make it (don't you)
Hey, hey
I know I was a broken child
I just need a opportune
Something to smile about
Something to heal my wound
I done been let down, I done been profiled
Looked at me as not a man
I am not a thing, I am not a noun
I'm a diamond in the ruff
You might find me in the lost and found (Hey)
They expect a bullet in my head
Instead I got a cop and gown (No way)
Can't wait to see look up on they face when I let the window down
Reaching out for handshakes
Ooohhh don't touch the fake (nah)
Man I swear I'm gone evade (where)
This a way, that away (Ya)
Gotta hit em the shakes, LBJLA (boom)
And they sending secret threats, it ain't April yet fool no way
I can't focus on the hate (Uh-Uh), not a real nigga trait.
Genetically DNA I got a list
Power ghetto violence coexist
If they wanna kill me, I'll assist
Suicidal door, I slit my wrist
Chinatown to have a culture shock
Life was dead, I needed several watts
Jumped me off the block to better space
Turnt around I had mo life to save (HEY)
Hey, hey! How did my life get here
So many sticks and stones
They want me to disappear
Hey, hey! They want my life unknown
I will not fade away
Ooohhh I can't wait
Don't you hate on my greatness
Don't you wait til I make it (don't you hate)
Don't you hate on my greatness
Don't you wait til I make it (don't you)
(Hey hey) Have you ever had a dream
And plus no self esteem
Cause nobody wouldn't believe
Nobody wouldn't stream your MP3s or cop CDS
Half off want it free, got me feeling so beat
Got me feeling so cheap
When I was down to my last
Ain't nobody helped me up they kag
Down and out they spit on me and laughed
I convert my hurt into a bag
Could've turnt my hurt into a flag, but
Ghetto nigga on escape
Uncharted Nate Drake
And I cannot leave a trace
Evidence to where I lay
Know how niggas operate
How did my heart get cold
How did my heart get froze
Tried to warm me up, I remain a popsicle
But I won't explode, gotta self control
Live to see another day you know (pain pain)
Everyone ain't have a easy path
Tuberculosis epidemic staff
See that's what put my city on the map
I just want a different path to pave
Tired of open case and closing graves
Autograph in Tokyo today
Hello momma I am on my way
Hey, hey! How did my life get here
So many sticks and stones
They want me to disappear
Hey, hey! They want my life unknown
I will not fade away
Ooohhh I can't wait
Don't you hate on my greatness
Don't you wait til I make it (don't you hate)
Don't you hate on my greatness
Don't you wait til I make it (don't you)
Hey, hey
