Timeflies - Crystal Ball Lyrics
Small town livin' chillin' acting like I'm coolWhile I'm one strappin' backpackin' probably actin' like a foolSee I'm walkin' up to my V-dubs and rolling up to schoolAnd I'm feelin' like O'Doyle ***** I rule...See I grew up on a one wayOnly knowin' one wayThinkin' I could do it like a subwayUnderground sound passionAnd now I'm smashin' these *****es who make they livin' on a runwayFashion me with a mic nowMight flash a free I might write downShit, is this my life now?My crystal ball never showed me what life was likeMy crystal ball never showed me a life so brightAnd yeah you show me what to doYou show me how it isBut I don't need youTo show me how to liveMy crystal ballMy crystal ballMy crystal ballOKCuttin' school playin' hookBut they call me Peter PanCause I'm never growin' up lookI don't need a planSee they never wrote a book on how to be the manWorst case I'll be down by the river chillin' in my vanI'm in the back of the class with a backwards hatTryna concentrate on these pagesAnd it's usually math where I'm writin' rapsThinkin' bright lights on these stagesDreamin' all along I might get my songs to go and drop at radio stationsI might have failed a class but I'm cool with that you can't top this educationMy crystal ball never showed me what life was likeMy crystal ball never showed me a life so brightAnd yeah you show me what to doYou show me how it isBut I don't need youTo show me how to liveMy crystal ballMy crystal ballMy crystal ballWent to live the dream, I'm fallingRushing to the scene I'm stallin'Shot callin' now you see I'm all inMan I must have stacked the deck cause ***** I'm straight up crystal ballinI was freestyling so old school while I was on the mic in the bedroomWith low ceilings on Pro Tools now that's off the top with no headroomStarted out on a Tuesday, so hot we couldn't stop itTurned my day dreams into day times now I'm feelin' like a prophetMy crystal ball never showed me what life was likeMy crystal ball never showed me a life so brightAnd yeah you show me what to doYou show me how it isBut I don't need youTo show me how to liveMy crystal ballMy crystal ballMy crystal ball
