In the Running

[Intro]
Sammy is coming
Hm yeah, mhm, in the running, yeah

[Verse 1]
I would say I'm in the running, it's been seven years coming
I tormented that fruity loops 'n turned it into something
It was built from really nothing, like a building out the wind
Got a twenty dollar mic, trust me eBay is your friend
But really there's no one but my kin can tell you where I've always been
And trust me where I'm at right now was never brought up or pretend
Let's begin, I'll tell ya how this whole thing happened
Talk my talk and walk the walk and final through with action, call me pretty boy but now you know that I'm not acting
Was always in my own world, up until the class ten
Back then, wasn't in the fractions
Asked me what I wanted to be, but never have told you rapping

[Hook]
F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do
I was no joke, I had something to prove
I'm in the running and making my moves
This is a game I'm not willing to lose
F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do
I was no joke, I had something to prove
I'm in the running and making my moves
This is a game I'm not willing to lose

[Verse 2]
I am not willing to lose, I'm killing to prove, now I'm spilling the truth
I don't got time for this shit anymore, but somehow I'm still in the booth
Feeling the groove, filling these shoes, addiction it's so thrilling to do
But now it got so complicated, wanna go back to when it was just chilling and cruise
No rules only freestyle and pass that
I just take my time while everyone is on that fast track
Always bet the other way, that's money on the Nasdaq
And I don't need a message 'cause I know I get my cash back
Fat stacks, I capitalize on what they doubting
Always knew I had to stay quiet when they were shouting
Still in the building facing my castle up on the mountain
Counting every single brick 'till it's built
Now it's stable it don't tilt, every track that I have killed
Yeah I'm in my bedroom still, I don' give a shit for real
Only do this 'cause I love it, give a fuck 'bout how you feel
And like I said back in the day, this is my drug I need my fill

[Hook]
F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do
I was no joke, I had something to prove
I'm in the running and making my moves
This is a game I'm not willing to lose
F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do
I was no joke, I had something to prove
I'm in the running and making my moves
This is a game I'm not willing to lose
F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do
I was no joke, I had something to prove
I'm in the running and making my moves
This is a game I'm not willing to lose
F-F-Funny who knew what I wanted to do
I was no joke, I had something to prove
I'm in the running and making my moves
This is a game I'm not willing to lose
