Chris Case - Smile

I was damned like Dot when my eyes got opened
All them words she spoke to me was thought-provoking
I gotta treat my mind like a sponge and soak in
Good advice Yeah very well spoken
I realized who I was when I was 13 years old
Damn time flies fast like an eagle and I know
I was chasing good grades like a presidential motorcade
Having fun a happiness plan knowing it can fade
Now life got me thinking what would I be without a pen
Just a caged bird tryna sing inside of a den
This music is more than a hobby, I'm tryna meet my end
A couple thousands to my name every time a deal is sent
I gotta do something cause I got bills
No Franklin's, just a lot of debts I wanna kill
Working on my job like I got an extra me
Cause I'm tryna reach as high as the Chesapeake

Smile for me one more time, ahh
Soak in only good vibes, ahh
Keep your chin up when you outside, ahh
Thank God that we all alive, ahh

Smile for me one more time, ahh
Soak in only good vibes, ahh
Keep your chin up when you outside, ahh
Thank God that we alive, ahh

She turned me down but I pushed my decibels up
Just tell them I'm focused on turning my decimals up
Thinking bout partnerships, I struck a deal
Me and my partners lit up like half a mill

Now let me tell you what's real, a trust fund
For young kids in class one, can't just spend dumb
Folks nowadays scam you for a gold chain
Me I'm tryna grind hard so I can hold things (nice)

And get 10k added to my name
I'm tryna see in 5 years who I became
After I touched the pen like being shipped to jail
I got haters watching me, hoping I won't prevail

Still I rose from concrete, I'm a walking poem my nigga
If you tried to ready me you can I got poems I got scriptures
I be preaching positivity like double a batteries
And they be listening carefully

Smile for me one more time, ahh
Soak in only good vibes, ahh
Keep your chin up when you outside, ahh
Thank God that we all alive, ahh

Smile for me one more time, ahh
Soak in only good vibes, ahh
Keep your chin up when you outside, ahh
Thank God that we alive, ahh
