I gotta get a couple things out (gotta get a)
’cause i put so many of my years in (put so many)
I know a lot of people had their doubts (i know a lotta)
They haven’t seen the work that i’ve put in (no, they ain’t seen it)
I ain’t doing this for no clout
You can get that without doing anything
I’m just doing this for myself
I made a promise i won’t break and that’s the thing (i won’t break it)
I’ve been making music since a kid
First i learned an instrument
Then i learned to spit
At times the dream felt like it was too big (woah)
At times i gave up music for a b#tch, (not again)
They say that i’ve got talent please don’t waste it, (woah)
Success is round thе corner i can taste it, (yeah)
Put all my brothеrs on if i make it, (yeah)
I got to be honest, i can’t fake it, (woah)
All the night shifts and the day shifts
Early morning late nights you can’t say sh#t
Tryna get it in for so long i’m frustrated
Now i’m on the path and staying motivated
I want so much money i can rake it
So much money that you can’t mistake it
I want nothing less, no i won’t take it
Been penniless for so long and i hate it, (not again)
Cause i spent all my money on my studes
Sacrifices that i made, i struggled for food
So much that i couldn’t understand until i grew
There’s been many stupid situations i’ve been through
I guess you have to work some things out, (i guess you gotta)
After all the time that you’ve put in, (all the time that)
There’s some people that i wish could see me now, (some people that i)
Realistically it doesn’t mean a thing, (no, no)
Cause recently i’ve been on a roll
Go mode on, in and out of studio
I ain’t got any time for these stupid hoes
Always hold me back, so i had to let them go
They all laughed
When i told them that i rapped
I’m just being real
That sh#t stabbed me in the back
They said it wouldn’t last
Making music ain’t for jazz
What they didn’t know
I stayed perfecting my craft
I produced, wrote, recorded and mixed
I put my whole heart into this
They thought i would’ve outgrew this
It’s always been the dream to pursue this
They say that i’ve got talent please don’t waste it, (woah)
Success is round the corner i can taste it, (yeah)
Put all my brothers on if i make it, (yeah)
I got to be honest, i can’t fake it
