Perspective

"What you do up front will surely show up on the back end child..."

But mama, I'm too fire, I would never black and mild.

"Cause we have all lost before.

Death's so unforgiving.

Plus I feel bad for hurting, too.

'Cause I'm not underprivileged.

My insecurities all come and go like perennials.

And they messed up the world and said, "let's blame it on millennials."

You gone get sick from Luke warm, there's no semi-cold.

Whether all caps, or no cap, there's still no semi-bold.

Lean gone make you italicize,

Addiction is like being paralyzed,

But dreams will help you to realize,

Breaking moments can make you a stand-up guy.

Or girl, that is...

The loneliness,

Is still a gift.

The promise is,

His promises,

Are just as strong as his dominance.

Sacks and stresses are the same as bags and blessings.

It's all perspective.

Iconic

I have a renewed view of impossible,

I'll admit that views are volatile.

Just because choices are optional, doesn't mean they're all logical.

Parents sacrificed a lot, I know they hope their son ain't prodigal.

I don't worry if my profits show.

I do hope I make a profit though.

I invested in some property, bet my pen thinks I am Socrates.

Misfit in my generation, I'm at a gala rocking soccer cleats.

This must be how Ali felt, before he won each title belt.

I found gold around my heart, just like Olympic Michael Phelps.

If you don't have $2Gs to spare, then maybe Gucci ain't for you.

I took a shot at skipping steps, God moved my target and threw back truth.

I can't excel, until Excel is taught until all of the black youth.

We know that seeds can produce leaves, but there's no fruit without the roots.

Turn on the news, see red and blue, cartoons that can't be honest.

We're forced to pick a favorite between Mario and Sonic.

If you have humility, some will claim that you're too modest.

If you're confident then all the others will act astonished.

Be iconic.

Dream Stretch

Shorty, you're so...

...agile and fragile.

Don't you know

that squeezing into those small places

is gonna hurt you.

Patience is a virtue,

but waiting sometimes hurts, too.

Dream big enough for the both of us.

How hypocritical of me not to dream, too.

Knowing full well what these dreams can do.

Stretch...
