Dreams & Distractionz Intro

What happens to a dream deferred
Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun
Or fester like a sore
And then run
Does it stink like rotten meat
Or crust and sugar over
Like syrupy sweet
Maybe it just sags like a heavy load
Or does it explode
I had heart to heart with God
To examine my interest
Am I rapping for the fame
And my selfish ambitions
Or do I do this
With intentions of making a difference
Help people live the kind of life
That Duval has been spitting
My mind wants to know now
Guess its so conflicted
What if my life and lifestyle
Becomes a contradiction
The show can never go on
If I need intermission
Guess these are some of my fears
I'm not use to admitting
My intuition says you got it man
Just go and get it
Failing will guarantee success to those
Who stay committed
Take some truth from your fans
Also some from your critics
They'll keep you lifted
While you keep cultivating your penship
There's really no competition
When you're in your gifting
The measurement of success
Is the dream you've been given
See the ending through your vision
Then be purpose driven
The journey's the cross you bear
But once you're there it's finished
Don't let the enemy come in
And plant the seed of doubt
And talk you out of everything
God said He'll bring about
It's your destiny child
With the group or without
So just live it
And forget all the ones who ain't down
