Cassper Nyovest - Strive Lyrics

Tired of rapping about things I don't have
Can I share a little truth
Or where's my manners
May I paint a picture in this booth
My name is Cassper
Yeah I ain't a king I've been to school
Since missing school with wicked dudes who used to tell me that my lyrics smooth
They were robbing innocent rich people
Can you blame them
They told me I should chase my dream in order to save them
They told me if I could make it out
I could show all the kids that it's possible to make it count
I'd be a role model
My name would be celebrated
Cassper Nyovest got in the room and meditated
I knew that it was possible calculating obstacles
The only thing I lack was patience like empty hospitals
Should I should I do it
Man I could beat the books no report
My hood is filled with crooks and no support
Bare success ke tla e peleta
Since binnekant
But being good to those who bad to you builds character

Strive strive to get what you want
Strive strive to get what you want
I can't wait 'til we on
Can't wait 'til we on

Now I'm out here
Couple of initial hits
I'm trying to feed mouths here
Not touch your precious tits (Hey)
You on the couch there
Ska tlo ijwetsa hier
Moving from the hood to the burbs ain't the best of it
Time and again I'm seen as lucky
Capo e ka nna paki gore ga ise ke etse zaka
Maar ba oketsega boCuzie bomalome mang-mang
Bo hey ne ke go leira not to be rude
But honestly ga ke go cave space-a
Where were you when I was squatting at Diece's house
Dikoloto di pile-a te meer not a bietjie huh
I had to hide when our father came he ra di ira
Til I was accepted with open arms ke nna kwa lapeng
And now I'm about to get my own place I'll do it my own race
To hell with popularity me I got my own taste
Almost did the two chains just to get too paid
But I'ma stay real till I make real money

Strive strive to get what you want
Strive strive to get what you want
I can't wait till we on
Can't wait till we on

Yeah feels like l started writing with more emotions
Already talking like we talk the process
l will be due though l mean l know that you know l'm in truth yo
l have never ask for your help just to condole
They say they will be happy for you when you make it
But they actually won't
People lie but they actually don't know no man is an island
But I answer to no man
And l don't trust people that have no friends
Some times l wonder how l overcame the things l have witness
People doing evil shit they say is business
Good business is adding value to people
Not cutting they life lines not that shit is evil
Feels like l'm chasing
A lot is happen same we got here
I feel a whole lot of things but now l'm fear
Never predicted the day l don't care
Impossible is the word l do not hear

Strive strive to get what you want
Strive strive to get what you want
I can't wait till we on
Can't wait till we on
