School of hard knocks, I was present
No Santa with these niggers hard flash cannons
I ain't talking no camera or dime
Work hard from my nigger that they get my DNA
Dream a ship of shine and waking up at ING
Fuck it
Take a sip and roll a tree up
Momma talking about jobs, all I can think of is rehab
Only way out of this ghetto is only stretch out our 
hand
‘cuz naturally I'm only concerned with getting this 
bands off
Man I end up quickly when daddy took off of momma
Punctuation don't care, all I understood was commas
No sun, but I swear somebody must have turn the heat up
You all are black and ambitious, one day imma put my 
feet up
And I promise imma
Spread my wings, take flight
Head it to the top, imma take this real high
‘cuz i'm never aware I'm about to turn in my mother
Best is the help from this young, ambitious brother
Imma fly, baby
They get me too busy clapping clowns and thinking about 
capping gowns
But pride beat the reason, we're suddenly backing down
Packing rounds like luggage, but never been in a plane
No BET on TV but all we know is the game
So we play it like a X-Box, spread the word to stop the 
piston
It's like a rest out, we grown until our breath stops
F cops, they can never understand the Gs
Like hustle honey if you make that I could get my peace 
right
But you just wanna throw the cuffs on me, send me back 
to trial
And hope the judge spreads dust on me, trust homie
Got a bigger vision in the sail, yeah, I'm black and 
ambitious
One day I'll make it to Yale
And I promise imma
Spread my wings, take flight
Head it to the top, imma take this real high
‘cuz i'm never aware I'm about to turn in my mother
Best is the help from this young, ambitious brother
Imma fly, baby
Misunderstood, yeah, we that
And some say ‘cause we're black
But they never get us the fundamentals we lack
So we struck, thinking the whole world set us cruel
Set the barrier at peace and bitch I don't need you
They said I'm foolish if they're thinking that one day 
they can go to office
Instead I'm on for picking out my coffin
I'm picking up the phone when I'm calling her from sale
‘cause she can't afford to pay the rent and still post 
pale
I wonder if imma making off, if I will die tryin'
Maybe I corporate America, maybe I try flyin'
Maybe I'll be a rapper who gets under Jay Z
Yo, I'm black and ambitious, you just have to wait and 
see.
I promise imma
Spread my wings, take flight
Head it to the top, imma take this real high
‘cuz i'm never aware I'm about to turn in my mother
Best is the help from this young, ambitious brother
Imma fly, baby
