lirik lagu ruslan - the game don't wait/ambition

[part 1: the game don’t wait]

[verse 1: ruslan]
i feel the wind on my face
feel the sun on my eyes
makes me squint for a second as if i’m mad i’m alive
yeah i was selling them dubs
and i was selling them dimes
but i did that by instinct call it my animal side
you know i got to survive
you know them other dudes thrive
and when i’m hugging the block
you know we bound to collide
this is cold out here
southern california cold out here
though we had gold out here
so they rush for the best secret unkept
the state known for having the most dreams unmet
yet there is no other place i’d be living life
hustling to survive, yeah i know i ain’t living right

[hook 1: john givez]
another dollar for another day
boy you better get right, get right
hear them holla from a mile away
cause the game don’t wait for no one
no one
game don’t wait for no one
boy you better get right
getcha, getcha game tight
game flight

[verse 2: ruslan]
how am i supposed to survive
on minimum wage, nine to five
these dead-end jobs can’t keep me alive
and the homies keep asking me what it’s hittin for
all i see around me are churches and liquor stores
the cost of living is outlandish
so most of my payday loans are outstanding
on a corner nothing to do, tell the truth i hate it
never been jumped in, but i’m more than affiliated
growing up here goes down from where you’re from to where you at
at the wrong place at the wrong time and they bound to lay you flat
tattoo tear drops symbolizing who’s gone
and i don’t need you to tell me what i’m doing is wrong
you don’t think that i know that?
look i’ve been saving for a minute to go straight and eventually i’ll own that
halfway legit, the other side ain’t feeling right
hustling to survive, yeah i know i ain’t living right

[hook]

[verse 3: ruslan]
i just need a little sunrise to shine on my mind
and maybe i might make it outta here
the homie went to college on a scholarship
they told me i should take my resume and polish it
or maybe go to beauty school and own a barber shop
how cool would it be if i got to call the shots
but i got this music thing and i feel like i got hold of that
but i’ve came too far to all a sudden be going back

[hook]

[outro: kendrick dial]
no one was going to bring him success
no one was going to hand him anything
many would be there to tell him he couldn’t make it
there would be obstacles in his path
some would even attempt to knock him down
but he wasn’t waiting for anyone to offer a hand to pick him up
see he knew he would have to do it himself
he knew he would have to do for himself

[part 2: ambition]

[intro: kendrick dial]
he was focused on his path
but when ambition meets desperation
lines get crossed
focused on his rise
he was determined to get it by any means

[verse 1: ruslan]
let’s talk about ambition
let’s talk about that cake walk
oh yeah we make it happen
we don’t care about what they talk
cause we play on
hustling raps must’ve become my day job
every time i just enter a city they asking me why don’t you stay long
anxious to get back to the cali weather, in
the state where weed is the number one medicine
you got your green cards so you think you’re better than
those of us who are doc-mented in the field, let us in
they want a piece of the american pie too
and they know we got enough of it to supply you
us, the one percent they think just fly through
eat the majority of our meals from a drive through
incapable of seeing our own luxury
or a kings dream and what it is, he might have us to be
headed for a global awareness that’s instead of trying to get ahead
easier to focus i saw myself instead

[hook] (x2)
when the beast comes
what you gonna do
what you gonna do

[verse 2: ruslan]
ever been so hungry
you forgot to eat
ever ran your mouth so much you forgot how to speak
ever exaggerate to the point you forgot what the truth was
ever start out trying to help
only to become a nuisance
they never knew us
but they finna know us now
as we eat up all their free food like it’s an open house
appetizers become dinners only eat with open mouths
disrespectfully i’m chewing, eating all your colder styles
man, f- your couch
and this plight for trying to win and get disciplined i have no choice but to focus now
that is like my coaching style when i was in the desert
they kept asking us for oceans but i’m overseas like okinawa
rock bottom and
desperation
been flat broke but that’s not my destination
any means necessary no more time wasting
god i see coming and i’m ready for these changes

[hook] (x2)

[verse 3: ray alexis]
we fail so many times we might as well give up
my brothers often cry i think they had enough
sometimes we victims to them cups
cause our upbringing was tough
we’re getting closer to the edge and our frustration ain’t abrupt pardon my temper
hurry like it’s [?] connected to my race and faster than usain bolt on this track breaking records
that time i’m packing my effort
like i’m really gon’ run
no one sat down to be better, stand up and work against time
time ticking i’m a ticking bomb, tick
well i help my people stand
or will i [?] it more
soon i’ll be going to have these lavish aspirations on my dreams to be big before my expiration
want my boys out of bids
we take so much for granted
our lives ain’t perfect
but at least we managed to
see the riches in spirit not on the flesh is damged
i made it this far i ain’t stopping, all my praise to god
my hunger to be the best is what keeps me alive

[hook] (x2)

[outro: kendrick dial]
success was starting to find him
but even still he was beginning to feel lost
all he knew was that he wanted something different
he wanted relief
he was never one to send hollow prayers to fall on deaf ears or fill himself with shallow hope
but through friendships and the divine encounter
he began to realise that the physical hardships of chasing your dreams
can often bring spiritual awakenings
and in this case
he couldn’t keep living for the world that kept on forsaking him
but often times
the gap between who we are
and who we want to be
can be
too much to balance
