Great Expectations

Diggy Simmons

3

Yeah, I'm ready, yeah

They wan't me to fall

They wanna see if I make it

With my back against the wall, put my head to the sky

No, I won't let 'em break me

I got great expectations

Great expectations

(I'm ready)

All the stares

And all the glares

They waitin' on him

And all the weight

From all the hate

It's gainin' on him

The intensity as he rises

Nobody can disguise it

It's like he got fire in his eyelids

The crowd is roarin'

It's so enormous, his blood is boilin'

His head is burnin', he's focused

He wishes they ignore 'em

Who in they right mind

Want to let his light shine

He ain't even in his prime

Pressure of a lifetime

He standing steady, hands sweaty

Maybe nervous, but ready

The skepticism lies heavy

He's bout to make it ready

He got his fam on his back

Bout to carry like Chevy

So much on his plate

He hopes the repercussions ain't deadly

But he ain't gonna back down

For what he faces right now

And he knows that he will outstand every

Doubt and turn around

The inceptions are knocked out

There will no longer will be doubt

He hears them boo but he won't stop til his name is what they shout

They wan't me to fall

They wanna see if I make it

Got my back against the wall, put my head to the sky

No, I won't let 'em break me

I got great expectations

Great expectations

(I'm ready)

He's no longer fearing

He's swervin' past 'em and persevering

The way he's staring is clearing

All that could be competition

Immediate intuition is winnin'

He's never slippin'

Been hearin' them sayin' that he could be the best that ever did it

Their expectations lie high

So he's just prayin'

Can I be the best man I could ever be to exceed everything they want me to be

No anxiety, just gonna do me and always proceed for the ones that believe

In the young man that's dedicated with a potential to achieve

So I'ma keep goin', keep flowin', keep knowin'

I'm the dopest

My rhymes are potent

But I'ma need you to know it

I know where I came from but I stay so hungry and focused

Like I was focusin and wasn't million in one of the closest

Great expectations I got em waiting and anticipatin'

They all debatin' on if he's hype or will he be stayin'

So now I'm sayin', I'm reachin' to be one of the greatest

So if you hate it take it cause I won't stop even when I make it

They wan't me to fall

They wanna see if I make it

Got my back against the wall, put my head to the sky

No, I won't let'em break me

I got great expectations

Great expectations

(I'm ready, I'm ready)

Staring in the heaven with my headphones on

I can see it in my eyes and know

That I'm the one they have been waiting for

I know my dreams are waiting for me

And looking down ain't the way to go, noooo

(Follow your dreams, follow your dreams we got great expectations)

Not til' they screamin' my name, yeah [x2]

I ain't gonna give up the game, yeah [x3]

Not til' they screamin' my name, yeah [x2]

I ain't gonna give up the game [x3]
