[Intro]
This is Ear 2 Tha Beat
[Chorus: GrewSum]
I said I'd take this to a level never seen, I promised (I promised)
Fuckin' way shit goes
We never made it, wasn't you, it was on me I promise (I promise)
Fuckin' way shit goes
But now I'm back where I really need to be on my own
Now it's just me in control, and you'll never be seein' me go
Cause now I'm here and I ain't never gonna leave, I promise (I promise)
I'm here to stay on this road
[Verse 1: GrewSum]
And I’m ridin' slow, drivin' my whip up and down this road (Road)
They said it’s my time to go, and I don’t know, maybe they’re right
I’ve blown so many chances to advance in life, I know
Second chances aren’t really too likely, so (So)
Maybe I should tap out, no, that route ain’t even an option, I like this flow (Flow)
I designed this over time and I’ve been counted out many times before (Before)
My mind is in a better climate, Summer time rhymin', fire
Smoke, inside me, see my eyeballs glow, time to pick up the pace 'cause you’re kinda slow (Slow)
Fallin’ behind me, even with your high beams know you can’t find me like hide-and-go-seek (Go)
Gonna be, weak wannabe’s keep wondering when I’m gonna give up my spot (Spot)
Let me look at my watch, what time am I gonna give all this shit up? I’m not (Not)
My top spot wasn’t given to me, that was somethin' that I earned through the music I dropped (I dropped)
I watched people on my level blow up and I feel like I’m next, why not? (Why not?)
And if it never happens I’ll be forever rapping 'cause I still get love from you (You)
And it’s fun to do, so by making this music I got what to lose?
Sounds to me like you're stuck with Grew
I ain’t never givin' up, fuck you
I'ma show you how to get up out a rut once you've been stuck only doin' whatever you want to (Want to)
[Chorus: GrewSum]
I said I'd take this to a level never seen, I promised (I promised)
Fuckin' way shit goes
We never made it, wasn't you, it was on me I promise (I promise)
Fuckin' way shit goes
But now I'm back where I really need to be on my own
Now it's just me in control, and you'll never be seein' me go
Cause now I'm here and I ain't never gonna leave, I promise (I promise)
I'm here to stay on this road
[Verse 2: GrewSum]
Sicfux is the kind of crew that you wanna be with, they inspire you to be a little bit tighter
Trying to shine with those guys was a tiring move, 'cause I was all the way in Iowa
Tried to stay in touch, I shoulda moved by them, but I’m just too in love with where I’m from: IA boy 'til I die, I am
But Jimmy Donn really helped me out, we got Sicko released in a proper way
Freedom 35 finally came to life and Bi-Polar Grew, it got dropped and played
They gave me life when I almost quit
I was done after all of that R2 shit
Turns out Claas really is an asshole
And Rodney and I just never did click
But I had this vision for this
It’s risky though and it’s unconventional
You’re unprotected, invested in it
So it’s all on me and that's extra pivotal
Get my hometown homies involved and then wreck the shit as we wreck the shit
We know, just pretend you won’t check the shit out and then at the end of it you just admit it’s dope (Yep)
[Bridge: GrewSum]
So as you notice me grinnin' uncontrollably
Loadin' three bodies that we caught up in this old Caprice
Show to me you love the shit I do and don't call no police
Hopefully we can get this body to a open sea
[Chorus: GrewSum]
I said I'd take this to a level never seen, I promised (I promised)
Fuckin' way shit goes
We never made it, wasn't you, it was on me I promise (I promise)
Fuckin' way shit goes
But now I'm back where I really need to be on my own
Now it's just me in control, and you'll never be seein' me go
Cause now I'm here and I ain't never gonna leave, I promise (I promise)
I'm here to stay on this road
