[Verse 1]
Can't hate on nobody that's doing their job
I just don't respect it 'cause I see it's all a faccade
I gave you something you can feel in your heart
Independent, told them I ain't signing shit from the start
I'm too raw for the corporate shit, the hood is where my office is
Ain't got much to give, but the truth is what I'm offering
Grandma had a stroke, they told her she won't ever walk again
If it wasn't for her, coulda end up in a orphanage
So I'm forever grateful
Even when the times get rough, don't ever lеt it break you
I know when you living with regrеt, it could get fatal
So I just keep on grinding 'till my name becomes a staple
Protein pancakes, dressed with the maple
Taking care of my kids, and building my label
Think it's a game, and they spinning your block like a dreidel
If you a real one, it's something that you can relate to
[Verse 2]
Uh, I don't waste time on the drama, I can't afford it
All a nigga had was a dream and a couple quarters
And I'm hungry, and I heard the world is on a food shortage
Looking all around, it's feeling like a new order
Got priorities, I'm tryna get my things in order
Infinity pools filled with alkaline water
I was skipping school, selling dimes for some Jordan's
If I made a dime for all my wasted time, I'd have a fortune
I need my portions enormous
I just left the booth with a season-high performance
I wanna see my daughter dress in the finest of garments
Kick my feet up on the desk and then keep the cigar lit
If that ain't boss enough, then what you call it?
Came from section eight, but we tired of living dormant
We tired of all the torment
Imma put it in action, I'm tired of all the talking
