I put the game on my back like a Jansport
Pay attention, you might learn more
Follow God, increase your test score
Swerve out your lane, it's a crash course
I'm in east Nash sipping lattes
Or Pinewood with my padres
Planning how we bout to change the game
We're undefeated in this 2K
This adversity, my university
I just learn from my mistakes and become better me
I feel like His greatness is inside my anatomy
Be mad at Jesus, that's how He crafted me
And you too but you do not notice it
You too busy tryna keep with the Joneses
You too busy trying to stunt on your socials
You ain't living life like you supposed to (blast off)
And I been feeling like they trying to hold me down
Hold me down yea
But every time I fall, I never touch the ground
Touch the ground yea
I keep
Blasting off like an astronaut yea, oh my gosh
Blasting off like an astronaut yea, oh my gosh
Blasting off like an astronaut yea, oh my gosh
Blasting off like an astronaut yea, oh my gosh
I put the game on my back like a Jansport
Pay attention, you might learn more
Follow God, increase your test score
Swerve out your lane, it's a crash course
I'm in east Nash sipping lattes
Or Pinewood with my padres
Planning how we bout to change the game
We're undefeated in this 2K
This adversity, my university
I just learn from my mistakes and become better me
I feel like His greatness is inside my anatomy
Be mad at Jesus, that's how He crafted me
And you too but you do not notice it
You too busy tryna keep with the Joneses
You too busy trying to stunt on your socials
You ain't living life like you supposed to (blast off)
And I been feeling like they trying to hold me down
Hold me down yea
But every time I fall, I never touch the ground
Touch the ground yea
I keep
Blasting off like an astronaut yea, oh my gosh
Blasting off like an astronaut yea, oh my gosh
Blasting off like an astronaut yea, oh my gosh
Blasting off like an astronaut yea, oh my gosh
