Things are looking up right now for the kid
So imma live life right now while I can
I'm used to people not wantin' to see me win
So I'm dream big right here where I stand
Things are looking up right now for the kid
So imma live life right now while I can
I'm used to people not wantin' to see me win
So I'm dream big right here where I stand
See things have changed since I've been in the game
I'm not feelin' the same
I got people who came for hip-hop
No problem 8 years later I'm still writing
They got no flow
How does it feel to be at the bottom
They got no soul
Push 'em to the side like a snowblower
Hold on just let me put my coat on then i'll be over
You thought the world was cold it's gettin' colder
Didn't notice it but now i'm older
The things in life you take for granted are the most important
And you only get a sample in them college courses
I dropped out along with a lot of poor choices
Just to go pursue my dreams write a song and then record it
Get on stage and then perform it in that particular order
Seeing people in the crowd sing along to the chorus that's a different story
So let's vibe to the beat and keep living for these moments
Yeah it's fine with me 'cause
Things are looking up right now for the kid
So imma live life right now while I can
I'm used to people not wantin' to see me win
So I'm dream big right here where I stand
Things are looking up right now for the kid
So imma live life right now while I can
I'm used to people not wantin' to see me win
So I'm dream big right here where I stand
I'm used to people not wanting to see me win
So that's why they see this big grin
I'm smiling from ear to ear 'cause I'm lucky to be here
And I'm comfortable in my own skin
Things are looking up right now for this kid
And I don't plan on stopping soon so let's get down to biz
Got lots to handle i'm living life right now while I can
Tomorrows not promised for us man you never know when
Your time comes when you least expect it
That's why I have my dad's ashes in a glass pendant
See I put it on a chain and wore it as a necklace
And took it to a cubs game just to be there in the presence
Of the defending World Series champs
We got the tickets as a wedding present from a friend
They won 9 to 0 playing against the Reds
Shut 'em out like girls did me in high school
They couldn't be my wife if they tried to
Things are looking up right now for the kid
So imma live life right now while I can
I'm used to people not wantin' to see me win
So I'm dream big right here where I stand
Things are looking up right now for the kid
So imma live life right now while I can
I'm used to people not wantin' to see me win
So I'm dream big right here where I stand
