(Intro)
Too many chosen ones, I'm only one still
Headed for number one, cannot stand still
I came with flows, and they loving my shit
Savage like 21 surely it’s not 'cause I'm 21
Been ’bout this shit since a kid
It's 'bout where I'm going and not where I've been
I tried to civil they called me a beast
Out the cage I unleashed
Just to show them that's just how it is
That's just how it is
You know I do it, it's all out of will-mhm- (kii)
Built for this shit you I know that I will-mh- make it
I’m out in the streets with my woes (bitch)
Can’t chill at the corner stores (you dig?)
Niggas can't face me no more but you know it ain’t deep
(Bridge)
I'm having good times with my woes
Most of the timе I'm not home
Baking all these hits but I'm cold
Pick mysеlf up, I drop your calls
(Verse)
Move benign don’t let 'em know, cut off losses set your goals
Those my father's words when I had felt like my life's already blown
Told myself I gotta grow, while they kept on throwing stones
Denied to see myself at fault, I was real and they was not
How you wish we never fought? while I'm grateful for these thoughts
'Tell the truth I wasn't sure, now it's bright my eyes was closed
I can never go back no, I found myself a new comfort
More like the Tempur pillow, work hard yet incognito
I sleep in the studio, I never take time off
Subsequent apocalypse, like the return of Lillit
I saw the curse of the black sun, I was forced to slither out
Let me pour myself a drink, can't deny those days were lit
Wish me well I'm toasting now, this the shit I've been about
You prolly drunk Esco, it's just an intro you ain't gotta let it all out
