Dylan St. John - Desperation Can Be a Deadly Weapon

Straight out the ashes I’m rising up like a Phoenix
Who would have known that life would be exactly how I dreamed it
And I guess you gotta to see it to believe it,
But never let these people tell you kindness is your weakness

Fast life mama said I should dial it back
I act right but know when it’s the right time to act
See it’s all about growth I evolve more
I don’t walk around shit this is a ball four
Family first I know that I need to call More
Can’t wait to get my ma that crib and say it’s ALL

This is calculated and manifested
This is perseverance over rejection 
I just took your energy into my session
Desperation can be a deadly weapon
And Every L I took was just a learning lesson
Don’t count my problems I just count my blessings

You know ima keep this shit one hundred
I was at a low point earlier in the year I felt like giving up, I felt like everyone had given up on me too
And the truth is…FUCK THAT NOISE MAN
Do what you do and don’t let nobody hold you back
Especially not you!

Mind of a winner so no longer in need of approval
Fake smiles just something I need to get used too
Couple things that I gotta stomach now,
Why is it I never run into those who run they mouth?
Cuz talk is cheap and more about the action,
And fuck trolling I say we get back to rapping,
I hear every word you say but I’ve yet to respond
Cuz knowing that It gets to me will give you satisfaction
You see there’s evil in this world but its necessary
So you can either play your role or be legendary
Im cam newton shooting through the secondary
Phone won’t stop ringing think I need a secretary damn…
That’s just life these days
Wasn’t long ago that I was barely getting paid,
Making minimum wage working doubles at the gym,
That that shit just made me humble man that shit just help me win

Its crazy, life moves so fast you know?
Shit im a god father now
For all those listening to this
I just want to say I love you
BBE til I die
Its your boy…. DYLLIE!
