In My Pocket

I'm just a kid with my head in the clouds
Shoes too tight, but I'm thinkin' out loud
Drew a map in crayon, heart keeps the beat
Just tryna find a way to land on my feet
Mama's workin' late, dinner's gettin' cold
But I still smile - I got faith, I'm bold
Got a note in my hoodie that my mama wrote:
"Shine your light, even when the world says no"

Teacher says I talk too much in class
But I just got rhymes I gotta let pass
Wearing this locket Dad gave me to keep
Said, "Even without a plan, you're a king, believe"
Lunch is cold, but my mind's on fire
Scribblin' verses like I'm walkin' a wire
No gold chain, but I move with soul
Pocket full of dreams - that's how I roll

In my pocket, I got stars and hope
A lil' notebook where I write my quotes
The world feels big, but I still believe
That someday, I'll be where I'm meant to be
In my pocket, there's light and flame
Even when I'm tired, I stay in the game
I might be small, but my dreams reach far
With a full heart, I know who we are

While my friends shoot hoops, I just write bars
On old receipts, under neon stars
Sidewalk cracks sound like a beat
So I freestyle life right under my feet
See my face in the bus stop glass
Tryna act grown, but I still ask
The stars above to talk with me
My pocket's packed with things you can't see

One day I'll rock a stage that's huge
But today, I'm dreamin' in these dusty shoes
Ain't no spotlight yet, but I see the glow
In my head, I'm already runnin' the show
Rain might fall, but I don't trip
Got stories in my pocket that'll never slip
I might be small, but my soul's got spark
And I knew from the jump - I'm a piece of art

In my pocket, I got stars and hope
A lil' notebook where I write my quotes
The world feels big, but I still believe
That someday, I'll be where I'm meant to be
In my pocket, there's light and flame
Even when I'm tired, I stay in the game
I might be small, but my dreams reach far
With a full heart, I know who we are

I'm just a kid with my head in the clouds
Shoes too tight, but I'm thinkin' out loud
Drew a map in crayon, heart keeps the beat
Just tryna find a way to land on my feet
Mama's workin' late, dinner's gettin' cold
But I still smile - I got faith, I'm bold
Got a note in my hoodie that my mama wrote:
