[Verse 1]
See, I got dreams and I'm really tryna live those
So I'm going through life with my lids closed
Tryna show my true life with a pencil
And a pad, but if I had a nickel
For every time that I rhyme with a sick flow
Or someone tell me "Man you gonna be big bro"
I'll buy a big boat, and a mink coat
Or a school in Africa where the kids don't
Have access, like the rich folks
And my address, will be a ZIP code
That's a big mansion if you didn't know
But I never had shit and I still don't
So my point is, that I've been told
Hella times that I really shoulda been blow
And though I haven't, it's okay for now
I'm in the stands 'til the man say "Come on down"
[Hook]
Like A-1 it's your night tonight
You can shine real bright if the price is right
I'ma live my dream, I've waited a long while
For them to call my name and say "Come on down"
I don't know if I'ma win the showcase but I better 'cause
I ain't tryna sit up in the audience forever so
So, if it's all the same
I'ma chill right here 'til they call my name
[Verse 2]
In my own mind I'm a king like cash is
But I ain't even got a king size mattress
Shit I ain't even got a small size mattress
Sometimes it feel like I'm sleepin' on a cactus
On the road couch surfin' but the fact is
I'm tryna travel the globe without a atlas
So 'til I hit that gold it's only practice
For when I reach the masses but in the meantime my back is
Hurtin' like a bitch from these floors I sleep on
Fuck that, do a yoga stretch and keep going
'Cause the pain that's a part of the pursuit
I'm nothin' without hunger and I'm dissing for the youth
They fight over the money but I fight over the truth
So, when I spit an angel sittin' right over the booth
I'm blessed, but I could use a couple of thou
So I ain't mad if the man say "Come on down"
[Hook]
Like A-1 it's your night tonight
You can shine real bright if the price is right
I'ma live my dream, I've waited a long while
For them to call my name and say "Come on down"
I don't know if I'ma win the showcase but I better 'cause
I ain't tryna sit up in the audience forever so
So, if it's all the same
I'ma chill right here 'til they call my name
[Outro]
Like A-1, A-1, A-1, A-1, A-1
"A1 from San Francisco, you are the next player on The Price Is Right, come on down"
Alright
Yes
I can't wait
See, I got dreams and I'm really tryna live those
