AMBITION.

Ambition
It’s your own personal volition
To do things great
To not placate
The masses
But to impress you

Do epic shit to impress yourself
Build your own self-wealth and self-esteem
Ignore the green, the bitcoin, the dollars
Don’t care whether others praise you or say “holla”!
You’re a baller, you’re dope.
Never give up hope friend
Hustle today, tomorrow, forever, again and again.
Stay strong and extend
Your strength, your power, and all the hours.

You got gifts of gold, let it shower
And rain
Make artwork that washes away your personal pain
Do it from the brain, do it from the heart
You’re smarter than you think, you’re worth more than the alcohol you drink
Your great ship is ready to sail, ain’t no titanic sinking

Never stop thinking
And dreaming
Keep scheming of doing more dope shit
You’re the boss, the captain; this is your own life ship!

BE STRONG,
ERIC
