Thoughts from a Balcony

[Intro]

It was all about a dream

Turned into reality, double-cup of lean

Uh

[Verse 1]

Let me get a one-way ticket, haven't picked a destination

I'm just tryna catch the train before it has to leave the station

Packin' no bags, nothin' but the clothes on my back

With a Cognac, let me sip it, tryin' to relax

Red wine up in my glass, plus Filet Mignon

I got a army right up under me, I'm Genghis Khan

Yeah, it's me against the world, I guess I'll take them on

I might stop and see my girl, but I ain't stayin' long

What if I'm gone, what the fuck you gon' think then?

I told my story, put my life inside this ink pen

Said I'll make it big when everybody know me

Well, I made it big and everybody phony, ha

So could you pour me? I need a cup

No, none of that liquor, mix in purple stuff

I could talk my pain, but would it hurt too much?

Go 'head, judge me, hate cost money, but this love free

[Chorus]

They just dreams, turn 'em to reality

Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony

Lookin' at the sky, thinkin' it could all be mine

All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?

They just dreams, turn 'em to reality

Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony

Lookin' at the street, thinkin' it could all be mine

All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?

[Post-Chorus]

What the, what the fuck is time? (Heh)

Ask 'em, what the fuck is time? (I don't know)

What the fuck is time?

I ask 'em, what the fuck is time?

[Verse 2]

What do you do when you think you could be a icon?

'Cause all these people get to screamin' when the lights on

Like they just seen a ghost, earn my stripes, zebra coat

Racin' to the gate, but my flight gone

And now these writers takin' shots without a Nikon

But I don't fight though, figure it's a typo

Seems we in some shit now, gonna be alright though

Potion in my Sprite, then my night slows down, down (Aha)

See, that's exactly what I need, my khaki's filled with cheese

My homie Sap is on the beat, like it was "Donald Trump"

A fuckin' hit, but I just call it luck

They throw it on when I'm walkin' in the club

Hey, this some 'Burgh shit, I don't deserve this

Well, I don't think you lookin' far beyond the surface

Learn quick, now I'm big time

Fill your cup up, and I'ma sip mine

[Chorus]

Fill it up with dreams, turn 'em to reality

Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony

Lookin' at the sky, thinkin' it could all be mine

All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?

They just dreams, turn 'em to reality

Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony

Lookin' at the street, thinkin' it could all be mine

All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?

[Post-Chorus]

What the, what the fuck is time? (Heh)

Ask 'em, what the fuck is time? (I don't know)

What the fuck is time?

I ask 'em, what the fuck is time?

[Outro]

A'ight
