Ambition Lyrics & Tabs by Gradient
Ambition
guitar chords lyrics
Nate Kiz gonna scratch wax because that cat's the man
While I'mma blast tracks in a hatchback sedan
Gotta backpack full of raps that's within
And man I feel like I can do anything
Yo, people wanna see you throw in the towel
They stopped listening before you even show ‘em a vowel
They're mad when they see that you been doing it well, but
It's all because they couldn't do it themselves,
They're lookin' foolish as hell… outta the way, haters
They're full of horse shit so I call ‘em naysayers
They won't be able block your dedication
Whether it's rockin' stadiums or Autzen Stadium
Don't stop when chasin' it, if it's often rainin'
You just shake off the pain and keep walkin' each day
I can honestly say that it's kinda cliché
Don't stop when chasin' it, if it's often rainin'
You just shake off the pain and keep walkin' each day
I can honestly say that it's kinda cliché
But with some dedication you can have anything
And it's alright now
If you never back down, whoa
When it's tough keep makin' the best of it
Keep pushin' through the pain the stress
Be anybody, anything, everything you wanna be
But you have to believe, oh
Keep movin', don't give it up on that vision
‘Cause you can do it with enough ambition
I was 11 when I heard the Marshall Mathers LP
I had the edited version but I remember explicitly
He was spittin' wicked similes that blew my mind
I was thinkin' maybe I could do it sometime
But when I threw some rhymes down with the pen and a pad
It was never the cleverest stuff that Em and them had
I was wack, I thought that I'd forever be bad
So I ended that dream and I never went back
‘Til I had to do an art project for the Odyssey, sophomore year
But I couldn't draw a thing
So I wrote a rap and the classroom applauded me
And honestly, it felt unbelievable
Call it Pearl Jam, baby, I'm Alive and can Even Flow
And even though I'm white, I respect this art form
I'm not from the place of the pain and strife
But I believe in hip-hop ‘cause it changed my life
This is for single mothers tryna search for employment
For military soldiers on their third deployment
For the schoolgirl that the popular haters avoided
Now she operates at the hospital replacing organs
For success after massive rejection
For sixth-graders running in their classroom elections
For those who have had some depression
For same-sex couples who no longer have to mask their affection
For dedicated teachers who shape education
For college dropouts bumpin' Late Registration
The family who just paid their home loan, barely
The trans girl undergoing hormone therapy
The young coach bringing hope to the youth
For any fans of my music, the old and the new
For any broke 20-something who don't know what to do
For anybody feelin' this, I wrote it for you!
