Underground Kings Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Live from the underground, UGK
Shout out to the inspiring Big K.R.I.T and Drake
They say I got no talent, I think they’re true
I’m just a guy working hard to remain true
Hundred thousand words to spit and speak
Hustling hard with no sleep I feel so weak
I reek from all the weeks I haven’t showered
But I’m just tryna make use of every single hour
Got a dream to fulfill got no time to kill
Up late until the morn with an ambitious will
I’d be on my grind all day with no breaks
Doing everything and anything, whatever it takes
They say I look tired, like man homie that’s all?
I’ve been stressing so hard I’m surprised I ain't going bald
I don’t even know what fun is anymore
Nothing quite entertaining I’m always looking bored
People hit the books and then head home to chill
I’d be finishing my work so I could do more work
All those times that didn’t last are now passed
It’s had not have, that’s what they call the past
Hard knock path nothing soft on this walk
Bouta pop from a heavy loss what a rip off
Ahead of my peers can’t see em by the rear
No ears for my tears I’ve lost what I held dear
[Verse 2]
Sold away all the memories that I could’ve had
For the future that I’ve always wanted to have
Could’ve dated a girl that I really admired
If I wasn’t so caught up in my business attire
Elders always told me to enjoy my time as a kid
Never took their advice but now I wish I did
But that’s what happens when you try and get it
I’d be hitting and slapping myself for not living it
No high school reunion for me it’s all good
Cause I’d be living out my dream so it’s all good
Repping for my hood started from the bottom
And I’m still here cause I’m just that awesome
Young blood in my veins, yeah that’s me
Haters please allow me to show y’all my dreams
Don’t wait for me to fall don’t waste your time
I’ve got passion in my mind I’ve wasted enough time
Write and rhyme I’m uploading on datpiff
Just hoping that one day things would happen
Gaining experience, I’m tryna get better
I ain’t married to the game to scrap more cheddar
Mixtape legend don’t listen it’s all for me
For my mind I don’t need your eyes to see
116, we some underground kings
I might regret some things but in the end I regret nothing
[Outro]
Gazing at the stars, inspired to live my art
I pray that my desires be fulfilled before I part
The crowd that chants my removal
But who has the right to guard my own approval
They may have the foresight of me
But they cannot make me leave my 88 keys and my harsh symphony
The spell that derives from their delusions
I’m living an illusion but I’ll break both our deceptions
Yeah
Scorpio
We the best
