I know, I’m workin with a vision (I know)
And its about time to see fruition
And I gotta wake up, struggle to get this paper
By any means necessary, before that day come

Verse I:
Before you make yo first
Move in the morning
I’m already up, while you yawning
Wiping ya eyes
And he who works while you sleep
Double they skies
Yea, so I double my prize
Workin this lonely night shift for a minute
Which means a lot of reflection
Aint a lot of forgettin this
Aint’ no forgettin this, when you hungry and penless
I can’t do my homework; my teachers think I’m senseless
They say, They say experience is priceless baby
I will debate it, I need a trade in
Nobody’s favorite, never thought that I would need cash
Ready to sell my soul, for a mean stash
I stashed, a bunch of packs in the Regal’s ass
Realistically, I never thought that that plan would last
Yea, outlast that history,
Prayin that them felonies neva get to me (lord knows)
Chorus:
I know, I’m workin with a vision (I know)
And its about time to see fruition
And I gotta wake up, struggle to get this paper
By any means necessary, before that day come

Verse II:
Albany born, Marietta raised
I done seen better days, sun rays, just aint the same
Cuz when its raised, I don’t see opportunity
Just what this cold brutal world could do to you and me
My vision consists of you and me
Musically, beautifully tuned it
A sip of liquor watch the room spin
This mood ends, (uhn) I’m on my step up
No longer playin catch up, cuz aint no let up
When you can’t get, the support that you need
4th quarter on ya knees, long shot missed so you front degrees
And that should come with ease, but that ain’t fail proof
Cuz even goin to church, don’t make you hell proof
And even if my happiness lets hell loose
I’ll give you the truth, my version in the booth
No virgins in the building, cuz we are all fucked
And I wont stop until I have my peers star struck
Chorus:
I know, I’m workin with a vision (I know)
And its about time to see fruition
And I gotta wake up, struggle to get this paper
By any means necessary, before that day come
