[Verse 1:]
I've been on my own (on my own yeah)
While they trying to do the most
I've been chillin here they wanted to boast
Man you want some other stuff that I honestly don't condone
Man i really gotta go
I've been trynna find a piece of mind a piece of mind is missin
Lately everything about my life is different
I told everybody I would do this and they thought I'm kiddin
Why you think I'm trippin when I say I gotta get it aw man
Cuz ill do anything I set my mind to times two
I've been on the grind and I ain't tryin to
Act like anybody else I got my own brand and my own fans
I'm my own man I'm a grown man yeah
These rappers coming up with no plan
And I don't go by the recipe I just go ham
When I started rapping I had no fans
Now I don't even rap I really just go ham
I'm confident enough not to be packin a weapon
I'm passive aggressive I consider my baggage a blessin
Homie I'm back in effect I had to tackle depression
In my adolescence but I'm about to add in some lessons
I feel like like I waited my whole life in this
I did the work and lost some friends I swore I paid the price for this
I got hated on for years I really wasn't likin this
So I played harder got the ball and scored now I'm spikin it
Worked my butt off on pajama day and I take pride in it
Told the people chase a dream and really put your life in it
We in dark times I'm just trynna bring the light in it
Killed the negativity screw what you thought it might've been
[Chorus:]
Yeah they used to tell me I could never do stuff
Now they wanted me to show em how to do stuff
Thats when I looked at them and threw the deuce up
Yeah and then I grew up (yeah yeah)
And then I grew up (yeah yeah)
[Verse 2:]
Look when I started I got rejected by all the bucks
But I ain't trippin I worked harder and did my job
Put the pressure on me I dont plan to stop at all
If you thought I dropped the ball then call it off I got it dog yeah
Aye all these rappers slackin nowadays
Thats why I dont even call myself a rapper nowadays
Lost some homies cuz alot of them are trappin nowadays
I've been trynna find a way to grab an hour wage
But its back to reality got low salary
But I'm trynna make this music pro like with no boundaries
I just hit the stage and I'm burnin the most calories
They trynna get me to drop the album ain't no doubtin me real
