Chance
Connor Clement Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

See I had a bag and lost it
Just part of life though
Can't expect things to go right
Everytime bro
It's failure you learn from
Let me just burn some
I've been stressed out
Hitting stoges
Need to earn some
I take chances like David Benyamine
Put my chips in the middle
Hope I'm making the team
See I had to focus on myself
And really relax
Been wilding too much
And drinking in fact
Uh, Molly in that water got me moving too fast
You know she looking good, ya and she got ass
I gotta talk smooth
You be knowing the facts
So I walk right up
I said "aye I rap"
I'm a young dude, but you like how I move
I gotta dream real, so I show and prove
See I grew up
Inspired
By hustlers and go-getters
I know In my chest, that I'm built better
I'm not mad for takin all the pain with the sun
Don't take back on anything you wanted to love
I'm not asking
I go do whatever I want
I take chances in my 'vances 
I'm not mad for takin all the pain with the sun
Don't take back on anything you wanted to love
I'm not asking
I go do whatever I want
I take chances in my 'vances 
I had to visualize and realize all our dreams can happen
I had to manifest the money, let music be the passion
Ya tell yourself the truth, and notice how you change your habits
Got my feet up out the mud, I couldn't let my dreams get stagnant
If they lacking patience, you gotta let them go
Commitment is a lifestyle, shit that be your self control
Cuz If you take control
Then you can run the game
CP3 up in the lane
Booker's gonna let them know
Cuz I've been pressing babe
Pushing all my life
I'm Plotting in the dark, babe
Waiting on my shine
Taking risk after risk
Pray it comes in due time
Im going make in the future
Shivers down my spine
Cuz baby girl I want it
Won't settle nah for nothing
And we gon turn a little bit of love into something
Cuz baby we gon take our chances
Do our little dances
And let it ride
I'm not mad for takin all the pain with the sun
Don't take back on anything you wanted to love
I'm not asking I go do whatever I want
I take chances in my 'vances 
I'm not mad for takin all the pain with the sun
Don't take back on anything you wanted to love
I'm not asking I go do whatever I want
I take chances in my 'vances 
I'm not mad for takin all the pain with the sun
Don't take back on anything you wanted to love
I'm not asking I go do whatever I want
I take chances in my 'vances 
I'm not mad for takin all the pain with the sun
Don't take back on anything you wanted to love




I'm not asking I go do whatever I want
I take chances in my 'vances
