Small town kid with some big time dreams
Praying for a chance to live off these things
Prayin' for a change
When nothing's what it seems
Small town kid with some big time dreams
One day
I won't live on a floor
One day
I won't have to walk to work
One day
I'll really have it all
And I'll really really ball
And wonder where the time blurred, uh
'Cause the journey is everything
I want it all
But the journey is a better thing
I'm gonna go far
'Cause I am never settling
I'll do what I love
On my life til the death of me
Yeah
Just a notebook and a dream
And a kid who's got a team
Trynna prove that he can be
Anything he wants to be
With a plan to change the world
Through the music he creates
And to better everything
Now I'm changing my life
I'm makin' it work
And I'm paving my own lane
'Cause I've been drivin' through the dirt
Proving to myself
That I'm more than what they serve
Showin' all the doubters
That I know what I'm worth
Yeah
Just a notebook and a dream
Just a kid with some esteem
Just a darkness with a beam
Just a lyric and a dream
I started with a broken heart
But I turned into a spark
Then it turned into a light
Now it's getting really bright
And I'm burning through the dark
Living in a mood, setting me apart
Chasing down a dream
With no one but my heart
Nobody to guide me
In this room that's full of dark
But I got God and my team
I plan on going far
I'll give this passion what's left of me
I'll give myself all the rest of me
Just prayin' that I'm prepped to be
Everything I'm goin' for
I'm dreamin' so desperately
I'm feelin' so stuck
Like I've been inside this rut
Wearin' the same chucks I walked to work in
Life is tough
I used to put 3 bucks of gas inside my truck
Just so I could make it home
And write down all of this stuff
Stayin' up til 3 'cause music never sleeps
Stayin' up til 4 because the Lord is testin' me
Wakin' up early to record another song
And just hope it gets attention
As I read the recipe
Take a seat
And then I just repeat
Now I've changed a couple lives
I guess I'm blessed to be
On these tracks
The train can finally leave
And to think it all started
With a lyric and a dream
