20 Karats on the Wrist by El Prez Lyrics
[1st Verse]
I be having crazy visions of seeing the dead that's risen
All my fam I'm missing
I see 'em and well I wish 'em
My granny got old, now her souls no longer prisoned
I watched her join and shine with the stars in solar systems
That's far, far away
But they're never far away
Still close to my heart
We still speak like everyday
My friend, she had to bury her mother the other day
All this pain we're feeling, I wish it was another way
To deal with it
Can't trade them cards in when death deal it
But until that day comes, my prophecy I'm fulfilling
Want my money stacking so high it'll crack the glass ceiling
So my children know the feeling of holding a couple million
Some people chase dreams, I let dreams chase me
Too focused on reality my views in HD
No salary cause nah I ain't no employee
Still trappin and this dope ain't free
[1st hook]
I had a dream that I was balling
I had a dream that I was rich
I had a dream that I was balling
20 karats on the wrist
I had a dream that I was falling
Falling deep in the abyss
I had a dream that I was balling
20 karats on the wrist
It ain't nothing like this
20 Karats on the Wrist
It ain't nothing like this
20 Karats on the...
It ain't nothing like this
[Verse 2]
White Vans and Stan Smiths, California summers
20 Karats on the wrist, that's the magic number
100,000 on a house, then I pass it my mama
Seeing is believing: my vision is on a hundred, yeah
This here's my mission statement
For all these kids debating
On who gonna really make it
Or end up in heaven's basement
All for the fame they chasing
Those diamond rings and bracelets
The faces on them watches got these bitches getting facelifts
And to my enemies waiting for me to fall from graces
Filled wit hatred like a racist racing a million natives
They could just keep on waiting
'Cause I'm a push my way in
This masterpiece you could frame it like it's Picasso's painting
Celebrate, throw parades and
See all the people waving
And all the haters telling people they're the ones that made him
Underdogs used to cheer him and now they wanna hate him
Guess that's the feeling when u fucking made it
Damn...
