Point Of View by TROY DiAMOND Lyrics
[Verse 1]
First day of school, I wake up and regain consciousness
Look myself in the mirror and try and gather up confidence
Back to the grind, let me welcome you to my skate park
Hoping the kids don’t laugh the clothes my mom got from KMart
Hopped in the car, I’m excited but also nervous
I love my friends to death, but some reason I feel deserted
Constantly over thinking, and talking myself down
Conversations motion to silence, I’m blocking out all sound
Tryna capture the vibe and fit in with the kids around me
Be the king of the school and I’ll let the principal crown me
Captain of basketball, all the cheerleaders be eyeing
With NBA as a given, and scholarships is provided
Dreaming off in the corner so lost in my own imagination
I done missed the whole dang lesson, missing my education
Superstitious, I must got bad luck
Always falling into the shadows, tryna climb back up
Listen, I got a crush on this girl I done gotten cool with
Maybe I shouldn’t tell her I really ain’t tryna ruin it
Truly infatuated she’s nice to me and she’s beautiful
Scared to tell her my feelings in fear that they aren’t mutual
The way she touches me, blood rushing disgustingly
Praying that cupid shoots her and makes her go fall in love with me
But all in all, I’m no different from any other guys
And I can prove it, here you can view the school from another’s eyes
[Verse 2]
First day of school, I hop up and try not to waste time
See her “good morning” text so I respond with a facetime
Sitting and conversating and time flies like a son of a…
Picking my fit, polo tee, some jeans and Columbia's
Hopped in the car, that took longer than I expected
But still it’s first day of school and my homies down to get reckless
Jamming out to the music, excited to see my homies
And thinking about my girlie if ever I’m feeling lonely
Loving the vibe as I’m on my way to my class
‘Cause I could run the school and treat classes just like a track
No glasses, your vision wack if my face isn’t in the picture
My parents conceived a beast, so my dad is Victor
Bumping some music I’m so lost in the beat
That I ain’t hear a single word that the teacher had teached
Not religious, but I feel so blessed
Always hanging out with my squad, like what you trying to do next. Tripping
Fear of flight ‘cause I don’t ever want to touch ground
Back on the ball, now I’m running it, that’s a touchdown
I still remember freestyling at the bus stop
Young and rich, counting Benjamin’s in my lunchbox
I miss the days, really ain’t much changed
But the way that they say my name. This the game that we play, but ay
All in all, I ain’t no different than these other guys
I can prove it, here you can view the school from another’s eyes
[Verse 3]
First day of school, and I’m really not tryna go
Still asleep in my mind so I’m moving a little slow
Time flies, eating breakfast. Throwing on clothes
Not ready to go to school but I’m already out the door
Hopped in the car and I pick up my friends
‘Bout to take the greatest nap ever when the school day ends
Still I’m in the zone ‘cause the music holds over me some influence
Pulling up to the school we ‘bout to get it in
Whoa, catching the vibe as I’m walking amongst the group
Tryna get honor roll and valedictorian, too
I got a dream like I’m Martin Luther, a king on ‘em
Let freedom ring on ‘em. So I sing on ‘em
Oooh, sitting back and contemplating
Almost didn’t get the notes, I was thinking ‘bout graduation
Not a dredle, but I feel on top
Knowing good and well I can make it I just need one shot - Pippen
I swear the world be on bull, got me feeling stuck
Good guys finish last got me giving up
But in the future we ain’t krumping when we getting bucks
Now they want me, where was you when we was glo’ing up?
It’s all love like Valentine’s with mistletoe
Plenty late nights at Domino’s and getting dough
All in all, I’m no different from-
First day of school, I wake up and regain consciousness
Look myself in the mirror and try and gather up confidence
Back to the grind, let me welcome you to my skate park
