YBN Cordae 14. We Gon Make It (Feat. Meek Mill)

Yeah, God bless the dreamchasers

If you got a dream, keep chasin' it

Never let nobody here trap your dreams

You gon' make it, yeah

I could've died on that pavement

Every time I see my mom, I be like, "Wait a minute'"

She know it's somethin' wrong with me, but I don't say shit

And I been tired of chasin' dreams, but I'm gon' chase it

Shit, we ain't never had a shot, how we gon' take it?

Success is in my arm reach and I can taste it

In the mansion, I was just down in the basement

They didn't believe in me, but I'm gon' make it

See I know how it feels on the late nights, swimmin' with the great whites

Drownin' in the deep waters, know you got three daughters

Could use some resources, nah, we just need order

I got my own bad news, fuck a reporter

Niggas ain't even safe, they wanna deport us

Or rather keep us boxed in on the street corners

If you gon' stop and frisk a nigga, shit, at least warn us

My dawg still on probation, they got a leash on us

Far from stupid, in fact, I'm smarter than Harvard students

Sparked a movement and put an end to this garbage music

Got me thinkin' like this can't be life

These stupid ass niggas voted for the Antichrist

I could've died on that pavement

Every time I see my mom, I be like, "Wait a minute'"

She know it's somethin' wrong with me, but I don't say shit

And I been tired of chasin' dreams, but I'm gon' chase it

Shit, we ain't never had a shot, how we gon' take it?

Success is in my arm reach and I can taste it

In the mansion, I was just down in the basement

They didn't believe in me, but I'm gon' make it, yeah

It was hell here, my people killin' and it's 12 here

Got my mom a Black Card and she was just on welfare, that's goals

Did it on my own, I got myself here

When God asked me do I want this shit? I said, "Hell yeah"

I'm ready, when I put the crown on, it was heavy

I was drownin' in my past like when Katrina broke the levees in New Orleans

In my city, to them kids, I'm like Jordan

Every move I make like chess, it's important

I just went against the system, spending nights tryna reform it

Lay at night thinkin' I could lose my life just from doin' this

It's a sacrifice, I know it wouldn't be right if I forfeit

But I do it for the young kings that never had no voices, for real

I could've died on that pavement

Every time I see my mom, I be like, "Wait a minute'"

She know it's somethin' wrong with me, but I don't say shit

And I been tired of chasin' dreams, but I'm gon' chase it

Shit, we ain't never had a shot, how we gon' take it?

Success is in my arm reach and I can taste it

In the mansion, I was just down in the basement

They didn't believe in me, but I'm gon' make it

Yeah, okay, I reminisce the cold days in wintertime, got home by dinner time

7-Eleven runs, Gatorade flavor lemon-lime

Hot Cheetos, Arizonas, oranges, clementine

The first job I ever applied for was Finish Line

Sometimes a nigga be forgettin', then remember I'm

Savior of the rap shit, the leader of the renaissance

Self-appointed, well anointed for my endeavors

I'm eyein' cheddar, applyin' pressure, defyin' set-ups

The rap game is based upon what niggas lyin' better

If truth is told, then you can grow and dyin' never

No, I'm everlastin', better graspin' this thing in life

I heard Meek hook and I told him to sing it twice, my God

I could've died on that pavement

Every time I see my mom, I be like, "Wait a minute'"

She know it's somethin' wrong with me, but I don't say shit

And I been tired of chasin' dreams, but I'm gon' chase it

Shit, we ain't never had a shot, how we gon' take it?

Success is in my arm reach and I can taste it

In the mansion, I was just down in the basement

They didn't believe in me, but I'm gon' make it
