Redd Da Killer Bee and Damian Redd - Ambition

I used to wake up and thought I wouldn't be this
Thought I couldn't be that, thought I would be wack
But sometimes I'd get stuck and caught in a flashback
Had to keep pushing forward had no time to slack
Got shut down left and got shut down right
But every time they tried to block, came with a harder bite
I'd go up 3 spaces to get pushed back 5
Just kept telling myself nobody wants it like I
Did what I had to do and made all my own moves
Tried to tell me where to go tho I was walking in my own shoes
And made my own rules, like a real King should
Invested in ambition cuz it does the body good

(Ambition) I won't let anybody ever break me down
(Ambition) I aim to possess and retain this crown
(Ambition) I was blessed with a light that they wanna dim down
(Ambition) But they can't stop this ambitious style

I feel the Phoenix flowing inside of me
My light's growing into a bolt of lightning
It's exciting when they try to block
But to see their faces when I can't stop
Perseverance alone will break the barricades
Causing major destruction, Redd the hurricane
Where my accolades for the strength within
I refuse to let these mother fuckers win
I'm the god, Emperor, and Pharaoh
Everything I say, best believe it goes
Cuz I strive for mine, like a real King should
High off ambition cuz it does the body good

(Ambition) I won't let anybody ever break me down
(Ambition) I aim to possess and retain this crown
(Ambition) I was blessed with a light that they wanna dim down
(Ambition) But they can't stop this ambitious style
