Touchdown

I've been thinking, lately it's just me against the world
'Round and 'round, I'm caught up in this swirl
Try'na dig in, try'na burrow
Pressure turned this stone into a pearl
Lessons that I learned weren't always thorough
Sugar-coated like a churro
Now I'm really out here on my own
Now my homies acting like I owe 'em
Done extending out my arm
Made a lot of money from my poems
Been around and now they say I'm on

I can finally say I'm up now, I'm up now
Twenty-thousand on a bustdown, a bustdown
I'm on my way up, going up now, up now
And I ain't ever gonna touchdown, touchdown

No, I ain't ever gonna touchdown
No, I ain't ever gonna touchdown

Mind's on, I can't turn it off, late nights that I'm turning up
Hate life, then I learned to love, down and out, now I'm way above
I always knew I had it, now I'm living out my dreams
Treat that money like an addict, it's a habit, I'm a fiend
Feeling that rush, rocket ready to launch, hands up ready and gone, been waiting too long
Trust, done plenty that's wrong
Old me's dead and that's gone, thank God I'm headstrong
I don't wanna wake up with a doubt, that I ain't show 'em everything I'm 'bout
I ain't ever going out, I ain't ever did it for the clout
Now I'm sitting pretty on a cloud and my mom's still proud

I can finally say I'm up now, I'm up now
Twenty-thousand on a bustdown, a bustdown
I'm on my way up, going up now, up now
And I ain't ever gonna touchdown, touchdown

No, I ain't ever gonna touchdown
No, I ain't ever gonna touchdown
I'm up now
Twenty-thousand on a bus down, a bus down
I'm on my way up, going up now, up now
And I ain't ever gonna touchdown, touchdown, yeah
