10,000 Hours

[Verse 1]
Last year I was in the zone
This year I don't know where to go
My phone ain't been turnin' off
They callin' 'bout some deals I ain't even want

[Chorus]
And if I'm honest, it's been gettin' old
Runnin' out of time, like, what's it for?
But they've been saying
"Dutch, you gotta keep it goin'"
"Those 10,000 hours, they gon' get you far"

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, so what I do?
I run it back
I think about the man I was
To where I'm at
I know these haters think I'm playin'
That's cool, in fact
Why don't you take a seat, relax?
And I'll handle that
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
Last year I hit a millie on the platforms
This year I gotta wall I'm putting plaques on
God dammit, I'mma do it till' I die
Or rise 'outta hell to come back for em'

[Verse 3]
And I just got off of the plane
Your boy is back in LA
They can't relate
I was in London for years
I came back, everyone fake, wait
'Cause I thought it's all 'bout the talent
The hours you work, not what's in your account
But I guess you just live and you learn
We'll see who could last when they know their worth

[Chorus]
And if I'm honest, it's been gettin' old
Runnin' out of time, like, what's it for?
But they've been saying
"Dutch, you gotta keep it goin'"
"Those 10,000 hours, they gon' get you far"

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, so what I do?
I run it back
I think about the man I was
To where I'm at
I know these haters think I'm playin'
That's cool, in fact
Why don't you take a seat, relax?
And I'll handle that
Yeah, yeah

[Interlude]
"How long do you have to work at something before you become really good? Right, and the answer seems to be is a consistent answer, in an incredible amount of fields, and that is, you need to have practiced, to have apprenticed, for 10,000 hours before you get good"

[Bridge]
When it's all said and done
So hard and so hard and so hard

[Chorus]
'Cause if I'm honest, it's been gettin' old
Runnin' out of time, like, what's it for?
But they've been saying
"Dutch, you gotta keep it goin'"
"Those 10,000 hours, they gon' get you far"

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, so what I do?
I run it back
I think about the man I was
To where I'm at
I know these haters think I'm playin'
That's cool, in fact
Why don't you take a seat, relax?
And I'll handle that
Yeah, yeah
