Chasing my desires desires
I'm chasing my desires
While smoking on some fire fire
While smoking on some fire
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams
Let's fly away

Chasing my desires desires

While smoking on some fire fire
While smoking on some fire
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams

Chase your dreams
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams
Let's fly away
It’s hard being black in America
I’m gone beat the odds
And put my momma in a newer car
I don’t need to be a superstar
I just need to see revenue coming in monthly
I’m working hard
I hustle harder cause the odds are tall
I been through hurricanes, pandemics, & murders
I seen it all
I think it’s safe to say I speak for all
When I say I’m tired of seeing my people put down like dogs
I’m changing the narrative
I’m boutta change how we live
These rappers do it for feels
I do this shit for my kids
Although they not here yet
Just know I got them
Accomplishing all this shit
While taking classes in college
Chasing my desires desires
I'm chasing my desires
While smoking on some fire fire
While smoking on some fire
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams
Let's fly away
Chasing my desires desires
I'm chasing my desires
While smoking on some fire fire
While smoking on some fire
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams
Let's fly away
Chase your dreams
Let's fly away
