Myles Cameron - Minnesota

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1997237
Verse 1
I was waiting on permission from the world
When all I needed was permission from myself
I let go my ego, let go of a girl
But I don’t wanna talk to no one else

It’s hard to know anything for certain at 24
Round every corner, down every road
Open doors, open doors, open doors

And my team heavy on my back
Tryna stay clean and I’m tryna pay rent
Most young kings they lose they head
But that’s what I see when I’m looking in the mirror, yeah

Ain’t goin out like that
Finna be my name on that check
First they doubt then strain they neck
Really outside, yеah I’m really out here in

Chorus
Nеw York to LA to London to Minnesota
Holes in my T-shirt but I’m a star like Michael Jordan
New York to LA to London to Minnesota
Holes in my sneakers but I’m a star I already told you

Verse 2
I’m Basquiat with the crown
I’m Baldwin with the pen game
I’m Hendrix to the crowd
In the 4th quarter I’m like James

My head heavy with the crown
I’m Angelou with the pen game
I’m James Brown to a crowd
In the 4th quarter I make it rain

Bridge
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?

Chorus

Outro
What the fuck?
Baby what you saying tonight?
Got it tucked
Come see if I’m playing or not
If it’s up
Then it’s stuck, you ready or not?
And straight up
I ain’t really ready to die
