Pookie told my booby, "Ain't got common sense"
So I told Pookie, "Watch and you'll see just what time it is"
Bitch, listen
They don't want no fire with Young Smokey
Grip on this shit, no pliers, this Young Smokey
Consider work for hire with Young Smokey
On my mama, I hustled all them niggas
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Your dreams ain't waiting on you (You, you)
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Whatever we say we gon' do (Do, do)
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Nigga, what you got to lose? (Don't wait)
Don't wait, let's shake it like this
Some people wish upon a star for the life they want
Some stars burn out, some cars need oil
And some of us don't need people
Pulling us, telling us how to do things
I sprint a 5K with no shoestrings
I spin around about while counting back down from a hundred
And still make thousands out of your
Loose change, flip it like Bruce Wayne
Some people wait for shallow waves to step out the boat
Some boats just sail, some sails catch wind, and some wind broke
Investing in theyself before they ever made it
Haters are alligators, I guess I'm Everglading
Vegas is where she take us to front like we ain't faded
And do things we regret and act like we ain't never made it
Made it like animals, you know?
Some niggas fuck over they bread tryna impress hoes
These hoes ain't loyal, these niggas still
Want 'em, I guess we should've told 'em
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Your dreams ain't waiting on you
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Your dreams ain't waiting on you
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Your dreams ain't waiting on you (Don't wait)
Don't wait
Your dreams ain't waiting, gotta be ready to weather the storm
And stop sucking the Earth oxygen up and causing global warming
Stop hesitating and flicking, procrastinating and playing hooky
I was so busy, I didn't even have time to eat a fortune cookie
I remember grinding, selling that swivel, recounting real men
Back before I was rapping, before any concert promoters'd book me
Reminiscing about my shoebox full of that fetty, that skrilla
When I was a young hyena, wouldn't hesitate to kill you
A closed mouth don't get fed and a lazy hustler don't get bread
You can be hard-headed if you want to and don't listen what I said
Some of my guys is dead, some of 'em up in the feds
Some of 'em came home early 'cause they contracted that COVID
If you in a halfway house on parole to another state
Might wanna stay where you at 'cause karma awaits
Pursue your dreams and start all over 'cause brothers die in they city
We're smurkish and greedy, the shady don't show no pity, bitch
Procrastination is the thief of time
Some niggas mark they schedule out for reefer time
Some niggas lose they rhythm, be a beat behind
Some niggas follow trends, look like repeat designs
Did you know you beautiful like Lupita Nyong'o?
Fearless and talented, ain't no place you won't go
When life in the balance, you still a sexy so-and-so
A toast to your greatness, how the bartender pour 'em mo', 'cause
(Sometimes) Sometimes you need to ease
Your mind just to soothe your soul
Your soul is warm, but warmth is vital, but you can ask your idols
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Your dreams ain't waiting on you
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Your dreams ain't waiting on you
(Dreams aren't waiting)
Your dreams ain't waiting on you (Don't wait)
Don't wait
