Ambition (Feat. Rick Ross & Meek Millz) Lyrics


The time is now on everything
Took my heart away from money, I ain't interested in fame
And I pray that never change
Ambition is priceless, it's something that's in your veins
And I put that on my nameUh, the only hope I had was selling dope
Was on my grind cause times were harder than the cellar floor
My momma taught me never steal and never tell on folks
I grew up looking at the niggas that was selling coke
Oh, I was raised by the stop sign
No religion I was getting saved by the glock nine
By the minute I was getting paid like a hot line
Servin' rollin' fiends was calling, we was dot com
Well connected, well respected and well protected
Aint get accepted, well rejected and now they regret it
Aint get my message, was a signal when I was texting
The niggas I was calling was fraud and I learned my lesson
Now I move with aggression, use my mind as a weapon
Cause chances are never given they tooken like interceptions

So throw that pass, I'll be the corner back
Me and Folarin MMG gon bring that Warner backFor my ambition
Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it
They gon love me for my Ambition
Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it
They gon love me for my Ambition
Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it
Look, they gon love me for my ambition
Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my vision(It speaks for itself. Define Ambition for me?)My ambition to win, just to get me some ends
Help me pay my little rent, maybe sit in a Benz
I saw momma praying as she wait on results
It was hot in the kitchen can I wait on the porch
My father was missing, War Lord Oliver North
Life was diggin' me deeper, I kept on coming up short
Breaking so many laws, waking up in the dark
Who cut my power off? It's time to move that powder soft
Not too many options when you coming from the projects
Sittin' in the trap now you moving Cyndi Lauper
Girls wanna have fun, and a nigga with some change
And I doubt that ever change
Ambition is priceless that's something thats in your veins
And I doubt that ever change
Ambition is my shit and I put that on my name
And I doubt that ever changeFor my ambition
Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it
They gon love me for my Ambition
Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it
They gon love me for my Ambition
Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it
Look, they gon love me for my ambition
Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my visionWell wishes to my opposition
You niggas probably cop a plea before you cop a pistol
I got nothing against them, they got fucking potential
But every nigga who can read gotta get his issue
Subscribe niggas reside where all the lions and killers be
And I aint spend a minute up in the streets
But I'm limitless mentally, I'm lyrically the MC
Lebron shit, I was heading six after twenty three
And family is everything and money is less important
Long as your mama love you, don't ever love a woman
I got a lot of bitches, they got a lot of feelings
But I got that green on my eyes
And that ain't no Donnie Simpson
I retire you niggas, fuck you and your position!
They play surface so slippery niggas can't even kick it
Y'all rambling, talking shit to these bitches
You know you real you don't say it
You know you real, we gon feel it
Ralph!Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my vision
They gon' love me for my ambition
Easy to dream a dream, though it's harder to live it
Look, they gon' love me for my ambition
Beautiful music, painting pictures that be my vision
They gon' love me for my ambition

Olubowale Victor Akintimehin Folarin (born September 21, 1984 in Washington, D.C.), better known by his stage name Wale, is an American rapper and producer. Fusing DC's homegrown go-go genre with a streetwise Northern hip-hop sensibility, he takes samples from all genres and blends them together with lyrical dexterity. In 2005 he released his debut mixtape, Paint a Picture, and has since released four more. His debut album, Attention Deficit, was released November 10, 2009.

Wale was born to Nigerian immigrant parents in Washington, DC. He grew up on Peabody Street in Northwest DC and moved to Largo, Maryland as a teenager.

Before music started paying the bills, Wale worked day jobs at Sprint, Up Against The Wall and Downtown Locker Room.

Wale emerged onto the local DC hip hop scene with the help of WKYS-FM's DJ Alizay. Wale began getting radio play in 2004 with a single called "Rhyme of the Century" which got Wale in the June 2005 "Unsigned Hype" section of Source magazine and his buzz started growing.
