Intro: Kenji
Yo I'm about to kill this
Yeah, I wanna see if I can get all this done into one take
Yeah, damn I feel this one
Ride with me now, ride with me
Yeah, yo
Verse 1: Kenji
They said I would never make it, and far too short of a victory
Now I'm kicking my city, penthouse, sippin' Hennessy
Drown in my doubt, in this liquor, see myself in the mirror
Praying to God, hope my time will delivers
Been at the bottom of this barrel for far too long
Just an outcast lost in this world tryin' to belong
Searching for better days, ripping haze until I find them
Sacrificing sleep to bring some heat on that album
Tired of writing like, I'm living this lavish life
In reality, it's all the same shit, just a different night
I wanna be like the people we praise
Celebrities making millions when they're only my age
Got me thinking like, what turns did I not take?
Yo, can I really make it or damn, is it all fake?
I wanna know, I grow like no other
And stay on this path even though it gets tougher
Hook: Kenji
Yeah, I pray to God that I stay me
Tired of being broke, but hope the money don't change me
(x4)
Verse 2: Kenji
Yeah, yeah
See that's real stack of bills to collect they start fallin'
I'm always making moves while the homies keep talkin'
I'm never part, you will catch me in the fast lane
Hotbox the Whip, then take off like a jet plane
I wanna see my name written in lights
These dreams seem possible when I approach the mic
I'm lost in the music or if I go with this right, thinking about the cost of fame
And if I could pay the price like
Damn, what the hell do I do now?
Barely got enough change to catch the greyhound
I know my breath stay low, but my head high
Always elevated, opening my third eye
Yeah, I'm now rich but I stay wealthy
And I feast off of knowledge to keep healthy
A legend never dies, so I live on forever
Kenji rapping hip hop forever
Hook: Kenji
Yeah, I pray to God that I stay me
Tired of being broke, but hope the money don't change me
