Limelight (Official Lyric Video)

Lyrics:
Don’t you think it’s crazy how the time flies,
Feel like I’ve spent my life scrolling down the timeline,
I thought I would be working in a high rise,
Life gave me lemons but I want the limelight,
Know I’ve grown a lot since school days,
Getting nervous auditioning for school plays,
I swung and I missed with a few babes,
But now I bat it out the park like the Blue Jays,
I been an underdog like the raptors,
It seems to be the same in every chapter,
When you get to know me I’m quick with the banter,
I got the energy like nuclear reactors,
I know I get to work when it’s go time,
I know I gotta grind wanna change my life,
But I taken advice from forest hills drive,
And I know that, No life’s better than mine.
Yeah I’m picking up the pen again,
Nah I ain’t settling for second best,
I got my own setlist,
I don’t ever take requests,
I’m getting dressed,
Coming uninvited like a wedding guest,
Tell me that I’m smelling sweet,
Tell em that it’s heaven scent,
Never rest,
Always on the sideline with a yellow vest,
Tryna keep a level head,
Can’t come on and get a red.
I’m steps ahead,
You’re just playing checkers and I’m playing chess,
Can’t believe they second guessed,
I’m the one they bet against,
It’s cool with me,
Just make sure you leave me out the foolery,
When I fix my issues I don’t need to have a tool with me,
Usually,
I’d concern myself with all your scrutiny,
I don’t care if you agree,
I’ll be the best one day you’ll see,
Brutally,
Honest is what I have been and I will be,
Thankful I got my degree,
Ain’t used it surprisingly
Driving me,
I got all this passion deep inside of me,
Christ he keeps on guiding me,
Nothing ever frightens me
For years I been on my own wave no cap,
Just me in the studio man you know that,
Bangers after banger til I blow, no gaps,
Find my own way to the top, no maps.
It’s a been a couple months since I been outside,
It’s a been a couple months since I been southside,
But they’re saying I’m the best, that sounds about right,
You know I say it with chest you can’t knock pride
This is where all defeat ends
They thought I folded but they were watching me bend,
Stick me in a shootout, man I take a mean pen,
Boots are covered all in mud, you know I never clean them,
Tryna make it out the mud, just wanna make my parents proud,
Hope I make make them happy, man there’s happiness when they’re around,
Working every second man, it’s clear that I’m my parents child,
Moved out of the council flat and moved into a terraced house,
In the middle of my Jordan year,
Next year be my kobe one,
I can’t wait on fortune cookies,
Use the force like Obi Wan,
Making all the noise like wookies,
Flying on my Solo Han,
Empires fall over here,
Tell them that the rebels one,
I ain’t got nothing to fear,
Shout out to the Holy One,
Can’t tamper this like buccaneers,
Safety like it’s cover one
Passing but can’t intefere,
TD I’ve scored another one,
I know that I’m the shortest here,
Still conquer like napoleon,
Tryna run my own race,
Jogging at my own pace,
Don’t care about comparison, I’m tryna make my own name,
I’m taking the long way,
It’s better than the wrong way
One day I’m gonna be out of here and I’ll leave no trace,
Working out my bedroom,
Tryna write my next tune,
You dunno my next move, Don’t know the heights I’ll get to,
Never run out of head room,
Know that I am blessed to,
Be doing what I’m meant to,
I do this cos he said to.
