Over the past few months, I've developed this interest in MMG's Wale and his music, and I LOVE IT - he inspires me. This is one of his songs or poem rather that I've fallen in love with and thought to share. This song perfectly describe the kind of girl our girls should be, but sadly aren't. I hope you love it as much as me.
Ambitious girl, the drive-drive me crazy I'm tryna stay with you, lay with you I'll pay your tuition, pray with you if you ain't into wishing I'm tryna fxck the shxt out your aspirations see, the last one I dated, I hated we wake up, i go to work, she leave out come back with some make up, high heels, and a purse, or worse i ask, "Baby girl, what you aspire to be?" she reply to me like, "why you perspiring me?" bxtch.. pardon me if I'm sweating you but, I wanna see something else in you before I invest in you ambitious girl, (what you sitting for) I'd rather you tell me to hit you later, because you gotta finish a paper then to be in my face asking for a rosea cup see these bxtches can't cut in yo business I'm in love with your business and your productivity is the reason I interest, ambitious girl see, I like the person that you are, but I'm in love with the person that you have potential to be and all your dreams sharing with me and your secrets bare them with me and the flaws, you aint even got to mention to me, ambitious girl, you just wanna win, and you'd rather chase your dreams, then to try to chase these men that try to chase these skirts that try to chase these shots with flavors that not even as sweet as her my ambitious girl, I wont forget you, I just reflect on how I ain't met you, yet boo you somewhere, getting your life in order so for the time being, i hope this (over scribe) might support her support her, or work her, she worth it go girl X3, ambition go girl X7, ambition go girl X7, ambition ambition X7
140 characters would never be enough to put my thoughts of you to words then to text, to express how grateful I am to have ever met you, So I'll write a blogpost instead.
Every single moment I get paid for a job, or receive praises for a job well done, I always flash back to the very first moment I met you, because a big part of who I am right now wouldn't have been possible if not for that very moment.
Ever since I met you, you've always been my inspiration, my push, and I've always looked up to you. Many feel threatened by you, but surprisingly I do not, I don't understand why they are, maybe its cos you are so awesome that its scary. When you said u were arguably the best few months ago, some laughed at u, some agreed, some 'beef-ed' in their minds, but now its clear to everyone that you are. Your exploits shows.
So, on your birthday, what more can we wish you than many more great years full of more and greater exploits ahead.
I am so proud to call you my friend and honored to have you call me your friend. I'm so grateful to God to have met you.
So yesterday, i was paying attention while listening to Nas's new album - Life is Good (by the way, he has sold 305k copies now), and something struck me about the lyrics of his song with Amy Winehouse - Cherry Wine.
He was talking about his kind of woman and somehow i was touched (probably cos i'm going through some L O V E issues), so I decided to put up the link to the official video, and the lyrics here, cos thats exactly the same way I feel.
Nas – Cherry Wine Lyrics
[Amy Winehouse] Where is he? The man who was just like me I heard he was hiding somewhere I can’t see Where is he? The man who was just like me Heard he was hiding somewhere I can’t see And I’m alone, and I realize that when I get home I wanna go through my red and my cherry Yes I’m alone, and I realize when I get home I wanna go through my red and my cherry
[Verse 1: Nas] I want some who like the champagne I like My a-alike, someone to talk me off the bridge any day or night She teach me how to live, she ain’t afraid of life Not easily impressed with the rich and famous life Cause she done been there and heard all the rumors before She love or she ride out with me on my music tour She like the herbs natural medicine, she cooking good She tell me everything is cool and looking good For real, the world so ill Yeah I want a girl so real Who not after material wealth, but get dough still Or maybe an educator, a lady with etiquette Who can be from out the hood, or even work for the president As long as there’s no selfishness Yes, as long as her love for the people is deep rooted and evident You can be easily recruited, you’re heaven sent Your smile, put me on ease You’re the woman I need, but where is she
[Amy Winehouse - Chorus]
[Verse 2: Nas] I hate when people write me hostile texts on the count of my lifestyle’s perception Invade my personal life, out of the question, what are they expecting I be tryna reply them, and they never suppose I get my quiet time in They think forever I’m rolling in dough, swimming in a pool of cash God, wouldn’t they know, or am I a fool or as I’m well known, got people coming at me mad I had a tell homes, I don’t keep a cell phone My bad, I drag, off the l and try to silence it The noise of my head, the curse of the talented Strong communicator, vagabond, I gallivant around the equator And that would get me off the radar It’s so intense, I’m on my Lilo and Stitch Pour my Pino Grigio with some lime what is this? An immaculate version of me and my baby With all respect cause you the only one that gets me
[Amy Winehouse: Chorus]
[Nas - Bridge] Yeah, yeah, let’s pour some cherry wine Everything’s good, everything’s fine Yeah, yeah we bring it every time Yeah, pour a little cherry wine Yeah, Hey yo Salaam, yea, I think they know the time Everything’s good, everything’s fine Yeah, pour a little cherry wine, yeah Life is good, life is good, yeah Life is good, no matter what Life is good, life is good Life if good, yeah No matter what Life is good
[Amy Winehouse: Chorus]
[Amy Winehouse] Man who was just like me I heard he is hiding somewhere I can’t see And I’m alone And I realize that when I get home When I wanna go to my red and my cherry Yeah-oh-oh-ooooh The man who was just like me Cause I know he was hiding somewhere I can’t see And I’m alone And I realize when I get home That I wanna go to my red and my cherry
