[Verse 1]
I wrote this verse in the first day of my life
What that mean a thousand things at one time
I've been dancing with dreams and demons and doing the slip n' slide
Writing music that feels like movies
The script is mine directed by
Yours truly, real name no gimmicks
Been rappin' and gettin' women since raises and chrome finish
My pop ain't Percy Miller but I grew up with no limits
The kids on my block gon' be like "he done did it"
Young Zilla
No quit'a
Feelin' better than the old me
New money don't mean shit without my homies
I see you sittin' pretty, are you really livin' though?
Soon enough we gon' come knock-knock-knocking at your door like
[Chorus]
Soon enough we all gon' ride
Soon enough we all gon' shine
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough you gon' get yours
Soon enough I'm gon' get mine
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough, soon enough
Been through the harder times
Down on dollar signs
Tryna find the light we gon' get it soon enough
We all gon' shine
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough, soon enough
[Verse 2]
Soon enough I'm gon' find my way
The light at the end of the hallway
On that day my posse gon' hit broadway and go Andre
3k on my dawgs, 10k on my moms
Go straight to a job then straight to a plane then take her to palms, whatever she wants
Yeah, uh
I'ma be king
I'ma live all of my dreams, uh
I'ma get down with a queen
I'ma plant all of the trees, water the seeds
You gon' see, soon enough
Turn the tables, soon enough
Feed my people, soon enough
I don't get high off smokin' blunts
Tryna get high off y'all
Tryna be timeless, vinyl, I don't need titles
Tryna win minds and hearts, uh
I don't see rivals, yeah
I don't need rifles
Rat-a-tat I don't play for that
Not a day I don't take a task
Not a day I don't run a track
Feel like Marshawn when I run it back
[Chorus]
Soon enough we all gon' ride (Yeah)
Soon enough we all gon' shine (Yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough, soon enough (Soon enough)
Soon enough you gon' get yours (Get yours)
Soon enough I'm gon' get mine (Get mine)
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough, soon enough
Been through the harder times
Down on dollar signs
Tryna find the light we gon' get it soon enough
We all gon' shine
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough, soon enough
[Outro]
We all gon' shine, we all gon' shine
We all gon' shine, we all gon' shine
Soon enough we all gon' ride
Soon enough we all gon' shine
Soon enough, soon enough
Soon enough you gon' get yours
Soon enough I'm gon' get mine
Soon enough, soon enough
Been through the harder times, down on dollar signs
Tryna find the light, we gon' get it soon enough
We all gon' shine
Soon enough, soon enough
We all gon' shine

"When I grow up I'm gonna sing to people, and they're gonna love my singing and they're gonna pay me for it.” That's what he said- do you remember that?
I remember that!
I remember that! And when anybody goes “what do you mean you're gonna sing, how are you gonna make money? You have to have a profession!” He goes, “this is it! they're gonna love it, they're gonna pay me, and I'm gonna sing for them- “
How old was I?
10 years old. He already knew what he wanted to do
