You didn't think that I could make it (Listen)
I was underestimated
Mind over matter, no matter over mind (Oh!) (Yeah!)
I’m breaking barricades and borderlines (Uh!)
Never cautious so don't wanna sound
I'm out to overpower anything ya’ll try to undermine (Uh!)
I live a legend on the track (Oh!) (What's that?)
Institution on the field (For real) (Oh!)
Natural born warrior
The coliseum know the deal
But when I started, walls they were closin' in (Oh!)
Underestimated now I'm overthrowin' em
We ridin' like the chariots
The fire gates are opening
Ya'll know who's chosen for the podium
You’re lookin’ at the truer liver
I was underestimated
Oh!
Oh!
You didn't think that I could make it
I was underestimated
This is dedicated to everybody who doubted me (Oh!)
You made a gladiator out of me
You’re all the reason why I stay motivated while my team flags stays elevated
I was underestimated
This is dedicated to everybody who doubted me (Oh!)
You made a gladiator out of me (Oh!)
Game time every win celebrated from the top (Oh!)
Let 'em know how we made it
Used to hate to confuse you but I won't let it
MJ how I follow through if I ever said it
Growing up I was hard headed and self-centred
I always knew I deserved more I just had to get it (ooh-hoo-hoo!)
Got it
Good I'm great
Call me Era the Great
Everything for the win, a loser couldn’t relate
Overtime in the gym, my man handled the weight
I waited a long time for my time
Give me your plate, born to create
Give me life, give me buzz
Give me money, give me peace
Give me all of the above
To see the light you need a plug
So give me health, give me wisdom and all of the love
I'm a beast, ground hard the paper it bring
I attack, buy a weave, I'm good in the ring
Up north, wild boys are crazier gems
Must I remind you in the presence of Canadian kings
Play the salute
But when I started, walls they were closin' in
Underestimated now I'm overthrowin' em
We ridin' like the chariots
The fire gates are opening
Ya'll know who's chosen for the podium
I was underestimated
First album certified classic (Oh!)
Last album borderline magic (Oh!)
Stimulated your brain cells, shocked the shockers (Oh!)
Fuse hip hop, rock, no opera
Realest rappers in Toronto, love to see me in the booth
Better styles, wanna see me in the suit, for loo (Proof!)
Guide away the guider jet, they go to god again (Oh!) (ooh-hoo-hoo)
Lyrical, spiritual, bring the Dalai Lama in
I could never die
Two rap junos, nominated for a Gemini (Oh!)
Started with a symphony, this summer's still a mystery
Keep making records, Ima keep on making history
But when I started, walls they were closing in
Underestimated, now I'm overthrowin' em
We ridin' like the chariots
The fire gates are opening
Ya'll know who's chosen for the podium
You're looking at the truer liver
This is dedicated to everybody who doubted me (Oh!)
You made a gladiator out of me (Oh!)
Game time, every win celebrated from the top, let em' know (Oh!)
I was underestimated
This is dedicated to everybody who doubted me (Oh!)
You made a gladiator out of me (Oh!)
You're all the reason why I stay motivated while my team flag stays elevated (Oh!)
I was underestimated x2
Oh! x2
