[Intro]
Where I wanna be
Yeah
Uh
Wait, turn my headphones up a lil' bit
Uh, uh, uh, ayy, I say
Where I (Where I wanna be)
[Chorus]
All that I wanted
Work hard for it
Late night, morning
I'm on it 'til I'm (Where I wanna be)
Wanna be (Wanna be), wanna be (Wanna be)
Wanna be (Uh), wanna, uh (Ayy)
[Verse 1]
In the city of queens where kings made
Ain't shit sweet, niggas need cream
I ain't talkin' 'bout the flame when I say that they fiends
I ain't talkin' 'bout Hakeem, niggas blockin' they dreams
I was on Kenneth McGriff time, sellin' Supreme at seventeen
Tryna make income off streams, pape' off looseleaf
Just to get y'all to wake up, I lose sleep
Shit, I ain't even woke, but they say I'm too deep
And how when I'm scratchin' the surface?
Carry more verses than the women that's in the churches
But I ain't preachin' to you, I'm far from perfect
Heal like Seal but show off the scars, they worth it, uh
I was travelin' through turbulence, through terminals
To plane, know the rain is just God affirmin' you
Walk by faith, not sight, it's gon' work for you
You think that it's hurtin' you, it's takin' you (Where I wanna be)
It's just food for thought for you to digest
My OG Emory told me trust the process
[Chorus]
All that I wanted
Work hard for it
Late night, morning
I'm on it 'til I'm (Where I wanna be)
Wanna be (Wanna be), wanna be (Wanna be)
Wanna be (Wanna be), wanna, uh
[Verse 2]
Niggas wanna be famous
Shit, I just wanna shine in this game that I reign in
I wanna be wealthy, don't wanna live dangerous
Totin' the stainless just to kill niggas brainless
Don't wanna be aimless, I wanna be shameless on my Frank shit
Gettin' big, married to faith, livin' on prayers
Jon Bon Jovi, makin' bands with the homies
'Til life sweet as Zack and Cody
Wanna be inside my Maybach bumpin' oldies or maybe Hovi
Baby, takin' my time, but no ticks on the Rollie
I wanna be an example of what they owe me as a child
'Cause there wasn't no one around to show me
And it's too many wannabes
But I just wanna be me only, doin' it by my lonely
And sometimes it's gon' take leavin' home
When I'm roamin', they ask me where I'm goin' (Where I wanna be)
Well, they try to tell me I can't, but they don't know me
Keep talkin' about it, nigga, then show me
[Chorus]
All that I wanted
Work hard for it
Late night, morning
I'm on it 'til I'm (Where I wanna be)
Wanna be (Wanna be), wanna be (Wanna be)
Wanna be (Wanna be), wanna, uh
[Outro]
Where I wanna be
