Van Gogh

No apologies live life with no regrets
I'm so over the circle no more pirouettes
Looking in my rearview I see the silhouette
Young kid chasing money diamonds and bagettes
1-8-0 I had to turn back
I'm from a hood where you played ball or slang crack
And when the dreams gone then the schemes on
Cause we didn't have no dad that we could lean on
So get your black mask get out and get cash
And never pay attention when your mama say you're moving fast
15 seeing rims on nice cars
Just the glamorous life of young trapstars
At a young age inherited peer pressure
So we walking the hallways and skip lectures
I was an A and B student focused prudent
But life was a nuisance
Yeah, so here's my two cents
That grass look greener over that new fence
I was a poor little rich kid
But I wanted what the rich young poor did
Young (and) morbid chasing that dream
All to find out it ain't all what it seems
So we spend our whole lives just to chase for
That green and I ain't talking bout Al Gore
Fame and power power and fame
The appetites of our hearts we can never attain
It's a shame how that money make us scheme
Got us chasing after things so we miss out on the King
I see the struggle in my own life
Got me riding through affluent neighborhoods
Thinking this must be the good life
Then it's back to reality I wanna be a man of Calvary
But lust is my fallacy
If we can paint our life on canvas like Vincent
Would it consist of fame big houses and reminiscent
Of a rich man this way of thinking's like a ditch and
We bury our treasures beneath the sand
Serving all is how you be great
So I paint through microphones with wisdom
And charisma when I create
You are listening to the sounds of a dreamer
Rocking shows on earth but heaven is my arena
All I wanna do is follow Christ
So I study His word like its the only way for me to live life
And that's the price that we pay for the Truth
The road that we travel is the proof
Vincent Van Gogh
