masterpiece - blueprint lyrics

[verse]
she rarely played outside with the other kids
rather spend all day with a pen and pad
sketching all the ideas that were in her head
rainbows, unicorns and castles from foreign lands
upgraded crayons with 64 colors
waterpaint that she borrowed from her brothers
art was a lens to the world she discovered
committed at a young age while others cut corners
getting paid by the 8th grade
selling pieces to her church that they raffled on christmas day
had her first show soph0m-re year
beyond all peers when it came to careers
but all too clear that her life lacked balance
from only being focused on developing her talent
in cl-ss she was silent… even with the answer
she never had the heart to raise her hands up
hair in a bun, no makeup but cute
ignored by the dudes ’cause she so late to bloom
told her mom guys only paid attention
when she was at an art show or working on a painting
mom said, “focus, ignore all of it”
she took the advice and got a full-ride scholarship
making plans in the back of geometry
next to the only guy who moved more awkwardly
love at first sight would be an understatement
for the first time, she found someone who related
a certified nerd but gentleman in the making
got the blessing from her pops to start dating
can’t be separated, picked the same college
ultra responsible, prioritized knowledge
even when they struggled, they still had each other
senior year she found out she’s ’bout to be a mother
at first she was overjoyed, thoughts of a girl or boy
family christmases and opening toys
but then, reality starts to set in
that everything she worked towards might just end
how would having a child affect a full scholarship
or her career in the arts that was promising
he had doubts too but seemed more calm
try to show strength while she cried in his arms
“i guess this means that i’ll never be a star”
he said, “hold on, you already are”
to be a good parent is so very hard
it may seem different but it’s all really art
all she really wanted was to be a star
he said, “hold on, you already are”
to raise a good child is so very hard
it may seem different but it’s all really art
