letra de wanted more - mike smiff

i remember before the deal you know
when i was down bad at my lowest low
you know dead broke homeless dirty
and dingy living in my car
i never seen what y’all saw you know
when i looked in the mirror you know
even though i was f-cked up from the outside
but i still seen a motherf-cking star you hear me

i remember people calling me a loser
my life was full of drama and confusion
down bag living in the projects
i had to stay down and trust the process
i wanted more
didn’t bend, didn’t break, didn’t fold
lord knows
i wanted more
despite of everything i went through
i still knew i wanted more

raised in a neighborhood where they murder folks
where everybody either selling dope or they doing dope
i’m up staring out my window the whole night
seeing old heads that been in the hood they whole life

they just sitting under the tree playing dominoes
no aspirations, they went as far as they wanna go
i see the look of satisfaction all in they eyes
no more goals, they content with barely getting by
just as long as they can smoke and drink, they was straight
it’s mind boggling to know that n-ggas think this way
how could you ever be content with being poor
am i strange or am i wrong for wanting more

stepped on my front porch and looked down the street
and seen everything that i ain’t want to be
i put it in the air that i can make it anywhere
and i decided ima be a young black millionaire

i remember people calling me a loser
my life was full of drama and confusion
down bag living in the projects
i had to stay down and trust the process
i wanted more
didn’t bend, didn’t break, didn’t fold, lord knows
i wanted more
despite of everything i went through
i still knew i wanted more

see poor people teach they kids
go to school, get a diploma, then go get a job with it
rich people teach they kids
go to school, go to college, then go start your own business

n0body really taught us how to multiply them benjamins
how to get a grant or put together a business plan
none of my n-ggas know what a 401k is
but i bet they know exactly what a ounce of yay is
all of these f-cking loses and all of these f-cking coffins
and we accept that this is all life has to offer
n0body really taught us nothing different all we seen is murder
that’s why we walking with them sticks like a ninja turtle

call me crazy but i was broke, i was homeless
at my lowest low and still ain’t believe for a moment
that i wouldn’t make it knew my situation was temporary
one foot in prison, the other was in the cemetery

i remember people calling me a loser
my life was full of drama and confusion
down bag living in the projects
i had to stay down and trust the process
i wanted more
didn’t bend, didn’t break, didn’t fold, lord knows
i wanted more
despite of everything i went through, i still knew i wanted more
