Scattered Stars (Hampton's Law)

from Radio Ready by Javier Starks

/

lyrics

Unless he who stands before the many sheds light he can NEVER be a leader... Because when shrouded in darkness NONE can lead.

And they told me I'd never get this far... I tell'm keep thinking that

I tried to tell'm it's only a matter of time, I envision a vision that's maximized if I said I was satisfied I'd be lying been categorized as one that doesn't rationalize overcoming what's coming at'm it doesn't matter I shine!

im dedicated and diligent, passionate and militant, not another rapper you should classify as equivalent. told me what I was trying to do was impossible but I'm unstoppable so it's possible I had never considered it

on the cusp of greatness, embraced by fans, hated by those who can't take it where I can, pie is monopolized I came for my share, only fear in the world is feeling fear I SWEAR!

Whole wide world waiting watching me wondering if I'm worthy... God got me and so I'll never be worried. Now the devil on my back like a jersey. The system built to protect instead be trying to serve me

They tryna break me but I won't let'm I'll never fall, 20 times out of 10 I'm 10 steps ahead of y'all.

old friends robots that applaud... that same love transform to hate like a predacon

whatever dawg...

INTERJECTION

I'll take flight, I'm connected to the big dogs, know its my time I don't have to have my wrist frost

I'm ahead of the game, move weight like cranes, y'all lames like ichabod, Simon say sick'm Jav...

Got my eyes on the stars see they sit high going through pain/paying for my dreams for the big shots painting my dreams but I spit fire, that's a g coat, ima let it drip dry, nah I didn't lie...

VERSE 2

When I was just a little boy... I ain't have a lot of toys like them other kids, I ain't know my real father like a lot of them other kids but nobody held it down like my mother did.

See what my mother did? She told me that I was star in my own right... and its hard not to shine in your own light... she told me who's under control, and even when it all goes wrong it'll all go right...

See them stars are the hopes and dreams of the people, just out of reach, so close that its lethal. Some go mad tryna grasp what they seek, others would die, would kill for a chance to be equal...

We're already there, they just can't see it, ima give'm a reason to hope to believe in, fill'm with fire to conquor the lies that deceive them everybody's a star you just gotta BE IT. Ya boy got his wings fixed!!
