When you're surrounded by the lights and the cameras
The passion seems to wane and there goes the glam, the satisfaction
But understand that after lights and cameras it's action
So don't get jaded, many have faded in this fashion
Get back on track like Talladega nights
And brag about the days you racked up the L's (that's okay you tried)
Kill procrastination, learn to discern fake advice
Watch hard work and time launch you back to greater heights
The crown will never be thrown at your feet
Without your palace being trashed and your throne in a pit
With stones thrown at you at home and your homies' defeat
Served for you to eat for breakfast like bon appetit
When you walk it takes much longer for you to become
What you dreamed of, so homie like a fugitive run
It feels like time is a female, ain't it a beautiful one?
Cause it's taking forever for the promised future to come
Let's get it
If we only celebrate the wins (if we only)
How quickly we'd forget what winning is
Be down but don't stay too long
There's a rainbow in every shower
You just gotta wait to see the flowers
Don't get jaded by this clout
Don't get jaded
Sometimes I get caught in the schemes
Falling in sins I can't afford and it's one of those things
That more than it seems, is borderline damaging
Like a dress that's torn at its seams
But still I get up and stay up so I'm not lost in my dreams
At 14 my uncle drove me to the Island
Showed me the good life, asked me what I desired then
I stared at the luxury there for a while and
Realized it was up to me, my future was in my hands
Yeah, I got blessed with all I wanted
Then got stressed, had to rest from wrestling against the currents of life
I was obsessed with being the best, trying not to plummet
In a world where they care less about the vessel than the content
Since then it's been wins and I celebrate them
I still pray for my friends that are stuck, like every AM
Cause what's the use of my success if I can't elevate them
I tell them sit with me, move with me, I'm your Andy Graham
If we only celebrate the wins (if we only)
How quickly we'd forget what winning is
Be down but don't stay too long
There's a rainbow in every shower
You just gotta wait to see the flowers
Don't get jaded by this clout
Don't get jaded
And now we're moving through the sky watching the clouds chase us
Eyes blinded by the sun, proud of the crowd's praises
They say we're amazing, wondering if we cloned Bezos
Still not fooling with these clowns like these clout chasers
Can't count the times my paintings didn't sell
I was sure it came from my heart and they said it fitted well
I was livid
Or when I fell in depression didn't tell anyone
I wanted a haven after living in hell
Amaka called me, said quote me when I say this
The day you will shine the sun will rise in the same east
Set in the same west, only thing that will change is you
And that perception of you
That brought me insane peace
If we only celebrate the wins (if we only)
How quickly we'd forget what winning is
Be down but don't stay too long
There's a rainbow in every shower
You just gotta wait to see the flowers
Don't get jaded by this clout
Don't get jaded
All of us, as we go through life, we get jaded
You stop noticing things and people
You stop becoming mindful and alert
You stop becoming curious
And you slowly start living life mechanically
I think I frequently experience that but what's the solution?
It is meditation
When you move from mindless to mindful
That is where magic happens
