I was blessed to be able to work with the one and only, Lisa Lavie on this cover! I received TONS of requests to cover this song and I've never heard it until about a couple weeks ago. I had to throw a Lil Crazed flavor on it!
PS: Please do not compare Lisa's chorus to the original. I wanted her flavor on the song hence the reason I asked her to be a part of it. This is a REMIX. It is not meant to sound exactly the same as the original.

Lyrics:
~i was 14, it started out with a dream,
of being up on the screen, and spendin' a lotta green,
then when i got in the scene, i wanted to be the king,
and to hear the crowd sing along with the loud screams,
poetry in class was the only way i'd pass
through the time now i rhyme using formulated math
that i designed in the past, multiply all the fans
divide all the hate and be added to the greats
doubted by many and even mama wasn't proud
a lot of money on private schools to take a different route
cuz they said i had a future but i couldn't figure it out
i just knew i had a dream and wanted to live it out
so i stuck with my pen to express my vision vocally
now i aim to make a living with rhythm and poetry (rap)
though i've risen, i still refuse to distant locally
but i'm trying to let my airplanes fly globally
~at 22 years old, still got the same goal,
tryin to make it hot, hot, hot like volcanoes,
i need to catch up (ketchup) without a box of tomatoes,
and build up the blocks like i still play with legos,
started my own label with a few friends,
try to find a connection to tie the loose ends
but not too may dig "underground" deep enough
so i used social networks to build up the media
hype,
they say i've risen but the sky is the limit,
so i'm still tryin' to reach that height
if only every airplane that i see at night,
was a star, dreams wouldn't just be seen at night
so i need to pack my things and reach for flight
if i'm not afraid of dreams then i can't be of heights
no strings attached, i've never flown a kite,
but when i close my eyes and hold the mic, i pretend that
