The Present - Cam Meekins

I was too focused, I’m moving slowly, I forgot about that, hey

I was too focused, I’m moving forward, I forgot about that, yeah

Back in my grizzy feel like it’s 2010, I’m building a buzz

Just like my third drink, feel like I’m building a buzz

Feel like a building filling up emotions spilling this stuff

My it’s slam city, I’m still living it up

This for the kids that’s ditching classes, smoking weed next to the bathroom

stall

Dreaming 'bout the life we tryna live, I wanna have it all

My teachers, they don’t get me, so I dropped out

Negative energy, I don’t hear it man, that’s blocked out

Growing up calling, but you know I never boxed out, too lazy for that

Time ticking, better watch out

I was too focused, I’m moving forward, I forgot about the present

Sometimes you gotta meditate, this rapping shit is hectic

I’ma tryna cop a crib up in the mountain, never rent it

Just have it as my go-to if we get a new pandemic

Why these people always hating on their friends, what kinda love is that?

I want my fam to get it too just so the deck is stacked

See, when the hoes circle, balling, it’s a perfect trap

The love forever even if we never texting back

'Cause busy people do shit all the time, that’s a redundant fact

And spitting bars while smoking weed, that’s a redundant rap

But what I love outta my life is really simple that

I get to see the little things and write it in a rap

I was too focused, I’m moving forward, I forgot about the present

Just tryna live it up, man, I’m just tryna be a legend

Ain’t tryna work a job up in a nine-to-five stressing

Just tryna be with my fam, be independent

So focused on the goals that I forgot about the lessons

Just tryna live it up, man, I’m just tryna be a legend

Ain’t tryna work a job up in a nine-to-five stressing

Just tryna be with my fam, you get the message
