[Intro: ALPHA]
('ite)
Pray greed never breaks another happy home
Pray another kid never ends up alone
One way road with my eyes on the throne
Can't nobody stop it something like Capone
Been Playing ever since 13
Learn the rules to the game
And the game becomes a routine
Won't stop till I'm sitting in a limousine (Alpha on the track)
Family living higher than they ever been
[Verse 1: ALPHA]
Luxury like they never seen
My dad's rolley riding
Ma's home in the hills shining, my kids thriving
But you saying that's the dreams talking
That's the dreams talking the talk
The hustle walks the walk
Pray I never sleep like Michael on that propofol
Or like Whitney on that bath floor
They say every rise is bound to fall
If money's a poison
Pray my soul stays pure till my final call
One life one lesson one blessing
Gotta make this shit count keep progressing
Know your dreams are attainable
That's how I keep my mind untameable
Let them say you're incapable
'cause flames can only hurt you while you're flammable
Go back to where you came from
Bitch I was born here
Well go back to the corner store then
Or wait you're a doctor?
Call me a doctor
'Cause I got the illest flow
Feeling I'm the realist tho
Raised on the realist know on the belief
You gotta get it, once you got it
Gotta get more
'Cause when you stop they'll take yours
If you want yours, you gotta get yours
Make yours, take yours
Guarantee you imma get mine
And you can get yours
Just know that people on that path will try and take it
Got a dream, they'll try and break it
Got a path, they'll try and snake it
So grind hard on those around you
And maybe you can make it
[Chorus: Liberty]
Will I ever see the light
Will I ever know what's right
I gotta make it own
'Cause all I got left is hope
Will I ever see the light
Will I ever know what's right
I gotta make it own
'Cause all I got left is hope (Aye)
[Verse 2: ALPHA]
They either imitating or they spectating
Talking on our shit not knowing
They can never fade us
Never overtake us
That's the detrimental danger to the imitator
By definition, they a step behind us
Spectators speculating on our next fall
Whilst we out working outworking those who said we couldn't
Said we wouldn't
And when we did, said we shouldn't
But the lord knows what I'll do when I got a vision
Watching what I say when these fakes around me
Gotta listen to the angels when these snakes surround me
'Cause snakes in the grass like I'm living in the jungle book
Rumble in the jungle
Everybody wanna take a look
Catch a hook, but they'll run when you down
Snakes become followers when you're wearing the crown
There's no I in team
There's no team in I
Lone ranger till I die
Only way to survive
[Bridge: ALPHA]
If they don't see it yet you know they gonna see
Seen the game turn a friend into an enemy
Don't look back, 'cause I know these demons chasing me
Wanna see me drown in a pool of Hennessy, jealousy
'Cause we being who they really wanna be
Put a tag on the beat, so you remember me
Turn a preacher to a fiend for a melody
One way trip for the fam thats a guarantee
If they don't see it yet you know they gonna see
Seen the game turn a friend into an enemy
Don't look back, 'cause I know these demons chasing me
Wanna see me drown in a pool of Hennessy, jealousy
'Cause we being who they really wanna be
Put a tag on the beat, so you remember me
Turn a preacher to a fiend for a melody
One way trip for the fam thats a guarantee
[Chorus: Liberty]
Will I ever see the light
Will I ever know what's right
I gotta make it own
'Cause all I got left is hope
Will I ever see the light
Will I ever know what's right
I gotta make it own
'Cause all I got left is hope
