Prevail

(Scratched Hook)
Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
Drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
I shine in spaces where time is just a glare
My poetry's deep, I never fell

Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
Drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
My poetry's deep, I nevеr fell

(Verse 1)
I prеvail, no matter what, I'll never fail
Grinding for so goddamn long to no avail
In and out the game like inhale, exhale
But I'll never quit no matter what the trail entails, oh well
All my life I've been chasing success
Been running, just ain't fast enough I guess
It ain't about being the best or fitting in with the rest
Instead it's about making sure my wife and daughter are fed
Is this a test? Why's the struggle so damn real?
Depression and this fucking shoulder pain is all that I feel
There's a million other rappers also looking for deals
But while they looking for a mil, I'm looking for meals
I admit, I didn't struggle as much as a kid
Silver spoon in my mouth but I don't own that shit
Never really cared much for money, power or fame
Fuck a silver spoon, a plastic spoon works all the same

(Scratched Hook)
Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
Drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
I shine in spaces where time is just a glare
My poetry's deep, I never fell

Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
Drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
My poetry's deep, I never fell

(Verse 2)
Ok, WORDPLAY will make it one of these days
All I got is hope and these tapes that nobody plays
Drop a song every week, new flow, new beat
New post, retweet, then rinse and repeat
Can't sleep - but I'm constantly dreaming
Trying to manifest all these fucking visions I'm seeing
Blank stare, it be kinda looking like I'm mind reading
Fist squeezing, knuckles bleeding from the holes that I'm leaving
On the wall but my fists don't hurt at all
I dream big, why do I feel so small?
I keep running, take out my legs and I'll crawl
I'll be on top one day and feel so tall
Mic in my hand homie, I excel
One thing about Play is that I don't fail
Grind don't stop as long as I inhale
And to my family, I promise you, I'll prevail

(Scratched Hook)
Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
Drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
I shine in spaces where time is just a glare
My poetry's deep, I never fell

Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
Drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
My poetry's deep, I never fell

(End Scratched Hook)
Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
Drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
I shine in spaces where time is just a glare
My poetry's deep, I never fell

Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail

Hold the mic like a memory
I excel, then prevail
