Dirty Rice - My Heart lyrics

[Verse 1: B. Cooper] Open my eyes, there's another day in front of me Never believed the lie you can be what you wanna be Until it came true, now my past is haunting me Took my breath away, honestly I just wanna breathe Never gonna leave, this dream I've had for decades Even If I have to quit my job to chase it making less pay I'ma follow it like a social network Forget about my net worth, that's when I make my best work When I sit back, let that thing inside my chest work And show the whole world I made it from out the desk work Graduated from a cashier, had fear But I'ma treat now like it's my last year That means, no more sleeping on my purpose I gotta wake up, no more dreaming without working There's a reason I'm here, I refuse to being worthless I've gotta get creative, write these 16's in cursive Words connected, murder every verse And show the whole world that it was worth it [Verse 2: John Givez] Partially functional, half of me is comfortable Other half is close to the cliff I must be honest that rhyme is the realest I never writ I mean wrote How many times I gotta swallow my spit, before I choke? (*cough* Lord forgive me for all my sins) Now I'm back with a lil' more pa**ion, in a lil' more pa**ive, aggressive fashion I'm certain that my a**ertiveness is something for the ma**es But hold up let me unmask it, mastered the art of plastering paint on a wall of shame See the coughing was empty casket, you ain't get that You might have to run this here back One day you gonna hit that, pip pip pap Chasing my dreams or dreams chasing me I don't want the finer things if it means chasing greed Or days chasing days, or chains making chains Let me get down on my knees & pray to God to make a change I'll tell the world Lil' boys & girls That the light is always brighter than diamonds & pearls I got it... That's my heart
