Caught in a misconstrued perception (Intro to reality)
Thinkin only of what I was lackin
Not even thinkin of whats in the trunk
Yea I forgot what i had packin
I had it all
And saw none if it at all
Didn’t have the girl that was fuckin
Or the car that was high rollin
Didn’t have all A’s
Wasn’t the 5 star athlete
The didn’t have the Cosby family
Guess that a lil summary
Caught looking at the bigger picture
Jus not knowing how to get there
Had the basic building blocks
But caught moving so fast in today that I was slow for tomorrow
I was setting the tone
But fell and began to follow
Guess it shows that nothing’s set in stone
I still had both of my parents together despite the history
Had the girl that loved me for me and it wasn’t close to a mystery
Ain’t have all A’s
Kept a 3-0 but wasn’t ballin like curry
But shole tried to grow up in a hurry
Along the way I learned
Can’t rush the process that time will say you’ve earned
It’s a tale of a man that had it all, lost it, and got it back
