[Intro:]
2
Today, nobody cares
3
But tomorrow, they will
4
Today, nobody cares
5
But oh tomorrow, they will
6
[Hook:]
7
They said my future was dark, see me now
8
Just look around, I'm beaming
9
They used to talk, when I wasn't around
10
You see me now, I'm beaming
11
[Verse:]
12
I get my energy from my inner G
13
I be in outer space but I got inner peace
14
So tell my enemies that they can't injure me
15
I know that irritate, you have my sympathies
16
Well you should protest, yeah you should picket me
17
I'm on a losing strike, I'm on a winning streak
18
I'm out at left field, I'm speaking mentally
19
But that's a better place than where the benches be
20
I'm feeling really good, me and my different beat
21
Me and my different drummer; he play the timpanis
22
See that's what got me here, you hearing me
23
Me on my "black man in the future" shit, call me Billy Dee
24
See I'm just forward looking, that's how I really see
25
See while you Valentines, I'm thinking Christmas trees
26
And that's how this would be even at Micky D's
27
Semi-colon, closed parentheses
28
[Hook:]
29
They said my future was dark, see me now
30
Just look around, I'm beaming
31
They used to talk, when I wasn't around
32
You see me now, I'm beaming
33
[Verse 2:]
34
Do you remember me, the guy from verse one
35
Failure's my last name, Never's my first one
36
You see I hood a lot, and yeah I nerd some
37
Hood's where the heart is, nerd's where the words from
38
Don't represent either because I merged them
39
It's kids who wanna leave and I encourage them
40
Go out and see the world, never return from
41
Yeah you don't come back unless you learned some
42
And baby girl what does it matter where your purse from
43
Your hair done, your nails did, your ass fat but you're dumb
44
Mix Melissa Ford with Maya Angelou
45
Become a top model and Sojourner too
46
I try to follow this, what Muhammad do
47
It's such an old soul, inside this sonic youth
48
It's why I'm Ferrari'd up, and I'm conscious too
49
I don't prophesize, I promise you
50
[Hook:]
51
They said my future was dark, see me now
52
Just look around, I'm beaming
53
They used to talk, when I wasn't around
54
You see me now, I'm beaming
55
[Verse 3:]
56
Yeah it's me again, the guy from verse two
57
Well this the last one, it's almost curfew
58
It's almost night out so turn ya lights on
59
Where all my 760s with ya brights on
60
Yeah they are the ones to keep your eyes on
61
Like how we used to do to keep the house warm
62
Now those the type of eyes I not cry from
63
You see the tears of fire run out my crying songs
64
Now the world shoulders is what I'm crying on
65
The world's fast lane is what I'm driving on
66
What am I driving at, trying to drive it home
67
I'm in the drivers seat but you can ride along
68
It's never cyclops, it's never I alone
69
I'm telling your story wherever I perform
70
Now if they looking for me, you tell 'em I've gone
71
Out in the bright lights right where I belong
