[Intro: Sam Austins]
Yeah, yeah, look
[Chorus: Sam Austins & Black Milk]
They told me shootin' for the stars was the answer
Yeah, I took a trip to the stars, no rocket fuel, no NASA
Black astronaut, tell me, what more could you ask for?
The path wasn’t never there
It's one my niggas had to build everywhere, look
They told me shootin' for the stars was the answer
Yeah, I took a trip to the stars, no rocket fuel, no NASA
Black astronaut, tell me, what more could you ask for?
The path wasn’t never there
It's one my niggas had to build everywhere (Yeah, yeah)
[Verse 1: Black Milk]
Why you still mad at your boy? (Boy)
Yeah, I hustle 'cause I had no choice
They rather that I had no voice, voice, but instead
My parents held perspective for the mislead
Cigarettes and baby mama's that sip Henn
While the weight of the world gets heavier
Borders where they try and build barriers
Talkin' here, buildin' hysteria
That's why my young niggas don't care enough
We’d rather rock diamond wristwear and a pair of Buffs
They’d rather have us locked down in a pair of cuffs
Unfair fair enough
I wonder why you never see no peace
Why my outfit's not low-key
Treat foreign whips like trophies
Belong in this world
But we have to make our own in this world
[Chorus: Sam Austins & Black Milk]
They told me shootin’ for the stars was the answer
Yeah, I took a trip to the stars, no rocket fuel, no NASA
Black astronaut, tell me, what more could you ask for?
The path wasn't never there
It's one my niggas had to build everywhere, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2: Black Milk]
Those days that'll make you wanna shout
Thirteen, had to be the man of the house
Man or a mouse? Money was the path we was after
Things took a pass, had to grow a little faster now
Cold-hearted was the outcome, middle finger to ones
Pointin’ fingers that never been where I'm from
We was all trapped in, shit
Why you think we was all strapped then?
Head in the clouds, yeah, you deserve it
You would proably see a star if you looked a little further
Life's like a jump off the edge
Hope my wings form 'fore this fall ends
[Chorus: Sam Austins]
They told me shootin' for the stars was the answer
Yeah, I took a trip to the stars, no rocket fuel, no NASA
Black astronaut, tell me, what more could you ask for?
The path wasn't never there
It's one my niggas had to build everywhere, look
They told me shootin' for the stars was the answer
Yeah, I took a trip to the stars, no rocket fuel, no NASA
Black astronaut, tell me, what more could you ask for?
The path wasn't never there
It's one my niggas had to build everywhere
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
