[Verse 1]
Look, from bein trapped on the streets
To getting wavy on the tour bus
But that beein z, you smokin lemon and cheese
With fifi and c
And I can somebody beating while I’m tryina sleep
But if these bitches ain’t beating
...makin em leave
Cause the tour bus isn’t cheap
And you ain’t sleepin for free
I feel like I’m livin my dreams
Like I remember bein broke, cause it was only last week
And even know I ain’t rich, I’m much better for petes
So all you chumps better believe
That I’m infected with the rumors, I’ma spread the disease
They say a boss ain’t a boss
Until he’s fed his own team
That’s why I’m feeding my peeps
Instead of following the lead
A child taking the lead
Frontlining you detime me, I’ve been chasin my dreams
I been up for eight days, I’m hardly getting no sleep
Rock star, that’s the life that I live
[Chorus]
I’m only being myself
I wouldn’t have it any other way, ain’t tryna be anyone else
I’m only in it for wealth
I see certain man rappin
But they only really rappin for girls
Don’t get ahead of yourself
Call it like the fight over 'fore the referee's ringin' the bell
Still starin' up at heaven, while I’m standin in hell
And I ain’t tryna run the city, I’ma rule the whole world
[Verse 2]
They say recording off the west is, to be free
Now the studio I’m in’s like 2 bucks a week
Shot my brother’s propane, doe blacks and sweeks
Free my brothers come back, ace star and snoofs
Hear the city mind come styling them
Now I got the funds to make these youngings start ridin on em
Who these brothers like to hack for nothing
I just...where the fuck the happers got
That could be 9, forget my past, I’m the fuckin future
No need to be no drug dealer...
It’s only winners over here, where the fuck’s the loosers?
The only time I’ve ever lost was when I played computer
Just before I hit the stage I hear the fans screamin
Then I lied all this pain for me, my heart bleedin
Certain mind should be a ... but we ain’t speakin
Another mind used to doubt me, now they mind speechless
[Chorus]
I’m only being myself, I wouldn’t have it any other way
I ain’t tryina be anyone else
I’m only in it for wealth
I see certain man rappin
But they only really rappin for girls
Don’t get ahead of yourself
Call out the fight overb before the referee’s ringin the bell
Still starin up at heaven, while I’m standin in hell
And I ain’t tryina run the city, I’ma rule the whole world
[Verse 3]
Man on a mission, my life just beginnin'
I’d like to dedicate these rhymes to each and all my critics
For the times I did it, lied and said I didn’t
Not guilty, you my life until you prove me different
All my ways of makin' money were just routes to prisons
Feelin' out of place, lookin' for some boots to fit in
Wishful thinkin man, I’m wishin I can act some...
I know you people thought my pain but acted like you didn’t
I started rappin with a passion
I’m just tryina chase my dreams until I catch em
Lyrically spazzin, discoverin my talents
Keepin up my madness, but I’m jogillin my balance
I’m shuttin to the crackets, devokelin my bangers
To signing me a deal for 2 singles and an album
Certain nights I can’t sleep a lot of sheep’s been countin
But I ain’t stoppin till I climb myself right out this mountain
[Chorus]
I’m only being myself, I wouldn’t have it any other way
I ain’t tryina be anyone else
I’m only in it for wealth
I see certain man rappin
But they only really rappin for girls
Don’t get ahead of yourself
Call out the fight overb before the referee’s ringin the bell
Still starin up at heaven, while I’m standin in hell
And I ain’t tryina run the city, I’ma rule the whole world
