I always pictured,
Always figured,
I'd grow up to be a man others would look up to.
I'd be 6 foot 2,
Livin in the Big Ol City,
Not this mid-upper class town,
Was gonna play basketball, and throw it down.
I don't even watch any sports,
I can't even get rim, and I'm freakin short.
I don't write music,
And sometimes I still lose it.
I thought the jerks would all lay off me,
I thought I'd step and whisper softly.
Friends and loved ones, I'd touch gingerly,
On enemies, I'd inflict injury.
The man I thought I'd be by now,
The plans I thought I'd see by now,
Is haunting like a ghost of me,
Cuz I'm still wanting to change most of me.
