Miller Jr. AkA Big Ted Written On Feb. 9, 2012 Hook: We're Going For Success In A World Of Stress Thirsting For Water To Get Blessed Everyday Is A Test I maintain to be passing When I'm looking to accelerate Then I'll be able to escape Since I'm going for success I know I'm bound to win I'm going for success That's right, I'm going for success Verse One: In a world getting colder I'm watching mama and papa getting older More weight goes on to my shoulder Since my responsibility goes some more I'm not trying to win awards Or break records on Billboards But peeps gotta see They just gotta see I just want to be heard That's right, I only wanna be heard Hook: We're Going For Success In A World Of Stress Thirsting For Water To Get Blessed Everyday Is A Test I maintain to be passing When I'm looking to accelerate Then I'll be able to escape Since I'm going for success I know I'm bound to win I'm going for success That's right, I'm going for success Verse Two: It's only natural That's right it's only natural I just want to get paid I only want to be paid Paid my dues for the working days That's right I strive to work everyday But being unemployed Reminds me of how I feel annoyed The foundation can't destroy My papa needs his medicaid My mama needs money to buy steaks And I need money to make some tapes That's right the hell with mp3s I'm doing this old school baby Hook: We're Going For Success In A World Of Stress Thirsting For Water To Get Blessed Everyday Is A Test I maintain to be passing When I'm looking to accelerate Then I'll be able to escape Since I'm going for success I know I'm bound to win I'm going for success That's right, I'm going for success Verse Three: I try not to think too far ahead When I'm like Boyz II Men Singing about 4 Seasons Of Loneliness And that road coming to the end Since I don't currently have a girlfriend But I know that's all right I'm not worrying about a wife At almost 27 I just want to live my life At my own pace Run my own race And with all my peeps, I'll maintain That's right baby I'll maintain Oh yeah! Hook: We're Going For Success In A World Of Stress Thirsting For Water To Get Blessed Everyday Is A Test I maintain to be passing When I'm looking to accelerate Then I'll be able to escape Since I'm going for success I know I'm bound to win I'm going for success That's right, I'm going for success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Willie Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I'd have to hear it to pass a real opinion, wheres the audio dude? Been a while, taking longer than I did, man, haha. The reason I need to hear it, the simplicity of the rhymes doesnt read well in my head, I cant determine a flow or structure easily. Concept wise, its nice man.

bigted Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 i actually plan on singing this one out, it's the structure of an r&b song, singin' out my blues, lol, the problem like i said in the song explains it all, i'm barely just getting by on this old windows 98 computer i've had since 2004, maybe if i hook up with a friend with a modern computer i could get some stuff recorded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 once again thanks for the feedback y'all, i'm actually getting bored trying to be a super lyricist especially since all the great lyricists never get the credit they deserve, I'm just trying to make songs with a strong message to them whether it's super lyrical or not, that's what this "new chapter" concept i've been working on for the past few months and it's come in even stronger with my papa being sick and all the frustration all my family and friends been feeling the hurt from getting him the proper health care for his medical tests, this is a trying time for me, i realise this is all a test since i'm "going for success" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 the frustration sets in for me though on a real to fight for him to get this healthcare coverage 'cause my papa worked hard between living in haiti and coming to america to be a manager at hartz mountain but times been rough after he got laid off for us and his retirement benefits got lost, like he always taught me though that to be grateful in every little thing and everything comes in time, it took him about 40 years of hard working many jobs after he started out working as an 18 year old kid in haiti at his sister's shop as a clerk to become a manager at hartz mountain in kearny new jersey, he's the living proof of the american dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 anyway to give my peeps out there an update: this morning, the social worker called and told us that we're going to work with another social worker that's off right now until tuesday since "lincoln's birthday" is being observed so on tuesday we'll talk to her on the phone for scheduling another appointment at the house, god willing the appointment is sooner rather than later since there's a 100-day deadline right now with what his medicare will pay for at the rehab that he's staying at, the deadline comes on april 18th, time's starting to tick, it reminds me of this song i came across on a cassette tape i recorded from a cd i borrowed from the library back in 2003: tank's "race against time" remix feat. ja rule: i'd probably use that instrumental to sing out that "going for success" song that i shared with y'all, i recorded it accapella on my voice recorder i have, i got so many ideas right now, maybe i'll make an album out of this experience, i know i'll probably call it "new chapter" like i mentioned since my life has a new story to it, haha..
