[Hook x2]
Whoa, whoa, whoa
What do you take us for?
[Verse]
It all begins when I click the pen, start feeling like a kid again but then again
I'm only 18 and better than half these rappers saying that they're veterans
Rap seems to be my medicine making me feel more clever than I've ever been
It's the poetry that gets me up in the morning and ironically it's made something out of me
I'm just trying to lose myself in a beat some say I'm lost but in reality
I'm more found than I've ever been sitting back watching all of this happening
These fake emcees hitting mainstream while people like us still see it as a dream
It's crazy, it seems hard to believe, that at one time you actually needed sk** to succeed
Now a days it doesn't take a lot to rap, as a matter of fact
Just mumble a few words on a track or start talking like you're having an asthma attack
It's not about the money, no not about the fame, not about how girls you can get to steal your last name
Not about making dollars, it's about making change
Change for the ones who don't want to stay the same
It's such a shame to see what the media portrays, it's almost like they are the breeders of hate
Faming the fake and shunning the great but i'm starting to feel like at this rate
This will be a feeling I won't be able to shake, I can feel it with every breath i take
Realizing everything that i'm putting on stake, is this all worth a dream I chase when I 'm awake
[Hook x2]
Whoa, whoa, whoa
What do you take us for?
[Verse]
So what do you take us for, just a couple of dreamers and nothing more
I'm just a hot head trying to settle a score, I'm not just something you can just ignore
I just want to drop the best bars i can lay, I don't care about the pay
But aye, what can i say, even when i'm 80, i'll still be listening to N.W.A
I'm trying to get prepared for this, I don't want to be like those college kids
All I want is to do nothing less, than craft together perfectness
So consider this my introduction, I need this music to properly function
Losing breathe like a lung puncture, making the competition loose structure
It's hard for me to take advice when I feel like Gretzky on the ice
I'm in my element, it's makes me feel alive, I believe this is my time to shine
I still got a lot to learn, so many thing I need to endure
I have a lot to prove before I take the floor, I'm living my dream, what else could I ask for
Until then I'll be that kid with the Detroit cap
Who's always has his headphones on listening to rap
Probably to Em, Kendrick, Cole, Nas or Pac
And this is only the beginning and I ain't ever looking back
