Opportunity of a Lifetime

Yo It was spring 2016, on track to graduate Was low on credits, looking for class that I could take A night music business class, to me that was too late But I figured taking it would help me out one of these days At first being in this class wasn't part of the plan Cause I had to miss some games with the basketball band A visitor gave her email and said reach out to me please Send your resume to get that intern credit you need I sent that email, knowing that I would be working for free But I got an email saying that I'm not quite what they need So I kept searching internships that were a fit for me Because I needed intern credit so I could get my degree Looking for the opportunity of a lifetime Looking for the opportunity of a lifetime I've always known what I want to be I just need a helping hand so I can achieve my dreams Looking for the opportunity of a lifetime Looking for the opportunity of a lifetime I've always known what I want to be I just need a helping hand so I can achieve my dreams It's March of that semester, doing mixes for my mixing class I'm getting good but months before my mixing was trash Started feeling like maybe I could turn this to cash To top it off the lady who rejected me had hit me back Spring break I got brought in to do an interview So what day do I start, you will start in a few I was up in that thang within a day or two I'm really out here moving and shaking, yo boi is making moves In the studio with some people that I had class with Been here for months, I'm like how'd you get here that quick I was making friends, we were becoming that clique If we do this right, we will all be on some cash shit I got the opportunity of a lifetime I got the opportunity of a lifetime I'm on track to where I want to be And if I do what should be done than I will achieve my dreams I got the opportunity of a lifetime I got the opportunity of a lifetime I'm on track to where I want to be And if I do what should be done than I will achieve my dreams 7/19/2016 22nd birthday Damn they fired me, birthday ending in the worse way The stress of that predicament will make anyone turn gray It was my fault but that situation it really hurt me Some dudes snuck behind this dude I buzzed in through the gate Didn't know it at the moment, had yet to see their face Said I'm here to see the boss, "I'm like yea, right this way" 30 minutes later, got the owner all in my face And his homies in my face, getting tense up in the place From jump I felt like there was an error in my ways Was asked to do a food run then got kick out that place Can't help but think of where I'd be if things didn't go south that day I lost the opportunity of a lifetime I lost the opportunity of a time I won't get where I want to be And with this smear all on my name will I ever achieve my dreams I lost the opportunity of a lifetime I lost the opportunity of a time I won't get where I want to be And with this smear all on my name will I ever achieve my dreams The opportunity is gone, my moment is gone And I can only blame myself cause I'm the one in the wrong The avenue I wanted so that I could get on Yet I'm here sobbing my eyes out in my mother's arms I was walking almost running now I'm back on the crawl Trying not to beat myself up cause we all got our flaws I was bragging bout this gig but now it's time to withdraw I'm allow to feel the things I feel, I'm sad man, that's all
