Verse 1: One thing you gotta know about me, I'm a own man/ I chose the path of the birds, meaning I don't land/ It can be so damn difficult and if I ever slip and fall I hope and pray to God that there's no land/ And, I just float in the skies/ Flap my hands hoping to fly/ Open my eyes to realize We fall only to rise/ Then find the invisible rope, tied it around me And focus and climb/ I ain't a quitter but truth is bitter/ When I considered rap as a career/ I was well aware of the consequences that come with it/ So as I sh** on my competitors/ I'm wondering if the big would be bigger or I would wither/ I ain't a quitter but truth is bitter/ When I considered rap as a career/ I was well aware of the consequences that come with it/ So as I sh** on my competitors/ I'm wondering if the big would be bigger or I would wither/ So when I look in the mirror/ Chorus: I'm haunted by this thing called ambition/ All days and nights in the kitchen/ I don't have no time to listen/ Please spare me the bullsh** you've been upto/ I don't care what you been upto/ I don't have no one to look upto/ And if it's upto me, I'll be the one I look upto/ I don't care what you been upto/ I don't have no one to look upto/ And if it's upto me, I'll be the one I look upto/
Gotta speak to my daddy though.. Verse 2: Daddy, you didn't believe me/ Now you see me on your TV/ Vh1, 9xo, MTV/ And you doubted me but now you proud of me, I know it/ So you speak about me big and sometimes you even bloat it/ But I love it though, even though you sugarcoat it/ And show me off to the family and blow it outta proportions/ Tell mommy, please don't be scared/ Your son was built for this rap career/ Yeah, have Faith like Biggie did/ We even share the same name, I figure it means what it really means/ It's literal, my whole family knows I'm destined for bigger things/ So, let me be big and all these problems Help me deal with it, don't ever tell me to quit/ No matter how bad of a path it may seem/ Please never be the k**er of your kid with a dream/ Chorus: I'm haunted by this thing called ambition/ All days and nights in the kitchen/ I don't have no time to listen/ Please spare me the bullsh** you've been upto/ I don't care what you been upto/ I don't have no one to look upto/ And if it's upto me, I'll be the one I look upto/ I don't care what you been upto/ I don't have no one to look upto/ And if it's upto me, I'll be the one I look upto/
