[Verse 1: Natty]
I'm planting my two feet in the ground & building upwards
I've been rapping since march & people say i've done good
They haven't even heard my songs, but yet they make a**umptions
& haters want to hate, but every song they come look
But that just isn't good enough, i want to make their jaws drop
I spent hours getting my voice perfect with the door locked
I'm doing so much writing so that i can push out more songs
Climbing up this ladder but you'll never see me forced off
Yes, it's hard to witness when you know your hearts not init
But I want to help my parents out & make 'em larger digits
So i'll always work my hardest when it comes to crafting lyrics
& I'll take this to the grave with me, before my bars diminish
I know that when i make a song it's far from being worthless
I put my heart & soul into it, thats what makes it perfect
My dream is too preform but at the moment i am nervous
I've tried to hide my feelings but they're coming to the surface
I can not hide the fact that i am turning too a psycho
Displaying talent on these beats, leaving you all mind blown
You don't believe the thoughts that are coming out of my dome
You don't believe the words that are coming out of my throat
But that is why i work so hard in showing you it's all me
I work so many hours that i can not even fall asleep
I'll keep on switching up my style so people don't get bored of me
& I don't make a penny off my records, meaning talk is cheap
When i started writing bars, they used to be so elegant
But now my views are changing, so give the game my sentiments
& music brings the best in me, so I'm always in my element
Since the age of twelve my writing has become so eloquent
& after all these years my chest is carrying a heart of stone
So that is why i write so cold, whilst rapping with the harshest tone
I always thought i 'can't evolve', but now i've had the chance to grow
So now I'm walking down this street, no longer being dark & cold
Twenty-twelve has taught me not to rush, but be patient
& every word i speak is so much more than a statement
So I'm gonna work my hardest, so i make it out the basement
& music is the air i breath & that is kinda blatant
I'm still here at the bottom but i'll make it to the highest peak
I'm gonna keep on climbing just so i can feel the slightest breeze
But lately i've been showing you the mighty beast that hides in me
I know that you confide in me, your secrets, they will die with me
But I want to be indelible before I'm put beneath the dirt
I want to jump inside this rocket just so i can leave the earth
I've given you the best in me, but all i've done is speak the worst
I jumped in at the deep end but i didn't put my feet in first
& now i feel the pressure cut me like i was a diamond stone
So i step into this booth & speak into this microphone
& seeing all these struggles that are resting on my spine alone
Has been a rude awakening, no longer will my eyes be closed
No longer will i let my past come forth & try & damage me
& everyone that picked on me has turned me to a savage beast
I'm clouded by my judgements, i no longer write with clarity
You use to be my best-friend, but then you tried too banish me
I went from being ridiculed, i went from feeling cynical
To being told I'm talented, & now they call me lyrical
But i try my best to keep my talent, right down to a minimal
Cause i don't want to give away, what they will not listen too
& right now i am minuscule but soon i'll be a giant
But ever since you left me i've been here without some guidance
So i fell into the wrong crowd, it took away my kindness
But that is all behind me, cause i shine bright like a diamond
