Elevator Imagination Gone Wrong

[Intro] Yeah… Grind U-N-I-V Media we think it… it happens… right? Well… not always how you planned it… [Verse 1] Stepped in the elevator, late for work, tie crooked Hit the button, sighed like “man today already cooked” Doors ’bout to close, I’m hopin’ for a blessing Like maybe a fine woman slide in—no stressin’ Then I thought, “Hold up… what if I got powers? Like whatever I imagine manifests right now-ahh! So I smirked… leaned back… started visualizin’ A queen walkin’ in—perfect timing, surprisin’ I’m talkin’ movie scene, slow motion hair blowin’ Perfume on point, confidence just flowin’ I’m like “yeah… that’s the energy I need today” She was flawless, as she pressed the button, I know she could hear my heart thumping, Doors closed… just us… she turned and hey. Im like. No Way! [Hook] My mind said “dream it,” life said “watch this” But I ain’t read the fine print—plot twist! From fantasy love to a situation wild Elevator dreams got me lookin’ like a child Yeah I thought I was him, had control of the scene But imagination ain’t always what it seem I said “make it perfect,” universe said “okay…” Just not the version goin’ on in my brain [Verse 2] I couldn't believe split second, I imagine and she appear This is starting to be, my-best-year, Then I’m like nah… let’s turn it up a level Elevator stops—little shake, little tremble Lights flicker twice, I’m like “yeah this cinematic!” Now we stuck together—romantic, automatic She looked at me, you can see the fear in-her-smile, Quickly grabbed my hand, now this is getting wild, [Whisper] Talk that talk playa.... I’m like “don’t worry sweet thang, I got you, just breathe” Whole time I’m smilin’ like “this meant to be” Now I’m picturin’ dates—walks in the park Ice cream drippin’, talkin’ deep after dark Then it escalates—yeah I’m goin’ too far Now I see a wedding, I’m in suit, she in white, oh my gosh... We got a house with a fence, two kids in the yard Dog runnin’ circles, life lookin’ fire—and it’s all ours Saturday mornings, cartoons on blast Arguin’ ’bout bills but we laugh right after that Family photos hangin’, holidays lit I’m like “this imagination thing legit!” [Hook] My mind said “dream it,” life said “watch this” But I ain’t read the fine print—plot twist! From fantasy love to a situation wild Elevator dreams got me lookin’ like a child Yeah I thought I was him, had control of the scene But imagination ain’t always what it seem I said “make it perfect,” universe said “okay…” Just not the version goin’ on in my brain [Verse 3] Now we older in my vision, sittin’ side by side She lookin’ in my eyes with that forever type vibe I’m like “this it… this the moment right here” She lean in slow, yeah the kiss gettin’ near Soft music playin’ in my head, violins I’m like “wow… I really manifested a win” I close my eyes… lean forward with grace… DING! Elevator jerks—back to reality space I open my eyes… hold up… wait… nah… Wrinkles… grey hair… plaid dress with a scarf? This ain’t the dream… this ain’t the scene… Why she smell like moth balls and Bengay cream?! She clutchin’ my shirt like “young man, don’t fall!” I’m frozen like a statue, back against the wall She lookin’ up like “you saved me just now…” I’m like “ma’am… respectfully… how??” She puckered her lips… yeah I seen it clear My soul left my body, I disappeared I hit every button like “we gotta go!” She said “But I'm your Sweet Thang…” I said “NOOO!” [Outro] Moral of the story… be careful what you think Your imagination might push you to the brink I wanted a queen, got wisdom instead Now I take the stairs—yeah that’s what I said [Whisper] Don't judge me... Grind U-N-I-V Media… we manifest… but we gotta be specific Or life get real… real… different Remember Time Don't Stop So The Grind Don't Stop!
