[Verse]
Made a name and then I made some noise
Word around town, we outlasting all the bigger boys
Bar is low, and the money slow
Still I'm on the grind
Working on my discipline, you know its a rocky climb
Built fa' dis, know some niggas kill fa' dis
Industry is fake as hell and I think I'm too real for this
Can't take my soul, no demon can replicate
And no darkness can penetrate
I been, set apart for a reason, I'm 'bout to sprout it's my season
I took a different route, it took awhile
I'm in here now, Can't tell me nothing
Knew I had something when I got word from my older cousin
He don't know music but the truth is, I need motivation
My biggest fear is being trapped right back in mama's basement
My biggest fear is repeating cycles and praising idols
My biggest fear is complacency and remaining idle
My biggest fear is everything God do not have for me
If He ain't send you, do me a solid, don't ask for me, ask for me
I been working hard as math degrees
This mastery, only thing I don't pursue passively
Who bad as me ? Run this game like a pro athlete
Who after me ?
All I need is my mic, all I got is these songs
I put my life on these track, I'm tryna write all my wrongs
Busy tryn' get in my zone, I act like I'm on my own
You say you miss me a lot, my biggest fear is regret
Still I won't put up no phone (yeah)
Still I won't pick up no phone
Still I can't pick up no phone 9yeah)
Still I can't pick up no phone
