Critically Acclaimed - For the Future lyrics

[Verse 1: C.A.L.I.B.E.R.] If I ever had a reason to sign a dotted line Would only be to see my father's Ford Econoline Retire from driving, inspire survivor for living, giving Replace it with a Jaguar surrounded by ribbons Hand him a scissors to sever his ties from this hard living Say to utilize all your talent that's God-given Lord, it's hard driving folks, feeling chauffeured It's written, religious while I don't attend church I'm immersed in prayers, so many people curse with fear For the worst you could never prepare a verse That put you in a limo, a hearse I'd rather have a room full of supporters than the keeners in the church Immersed in the medium, ‘tween the tedium and mainstream And the rhymes would always seem to speak of how the day seem I know it used to be a daydream But I refuse to be awake until I take it to the top scene With the ability to change things C.A.L.I.B.E.R. and Quartermaine, this is a critically acclaimed thing This is a critically acclaimed thing C.A.L.I.B.E.R. and Quartermaine, we definitely came to change things [Hook] Torch-bearers for the future Get used to them rhymers that tryna shoot ya We arrive with a different contribution So many others say they're k**in' them caps The only thing we k** is the tracks [Verse 2: Quartermaine] Entrepreneur from the first step I followed my father's maneuvers from the bird's nest Learned from the best, how to use my time productively True disciplinarian tried to toughen me Left up to me, a legacy of tenacity So the pressures of the game will never flatten me ‘Cause rapidly you see the rules change every day Stay on your Ps and Qs is what he used to say We used to lay up in the cut looking for food as prey So choose your moves carefully, avoid a fool's mistake There's loot to make if you're treat each like your last Days or dollars, follow the teachers of the past Not in your corner then ignore the treason of the ma** For they know no better, don't let ‘em lead you past Be a front-runner, number one to complete a task But accuracy is more important than being fast True indeed! Believing words impact my daily dealings Feeling the anxiety of feeling down and depressed Pounding my chest from stress, much less Won't let the ebbs or flows get me upset My work ethic's a shrine for all that watch I know the time, even on the grind off the clock As for style, I took a grip off my pops My father's son, can't deny this chip off the block True indeed! [Hook]
