Beat el Juice - Underestimated (Intro) lyrics

[Intro: Josh Smith] For the longest time I've felt like my presence on this earth was under appreciated All I've heard was “You can't do this” and “You can't do that.” “You don't have enough money”, “You're too white”, “You're not cool enough” “You'll never amount to anything” “You can't.” “You won't.” “You're not.” But guess what? They were wrong. I can do it I mean I don't have a lot and I've learned to stop focusing on what's not and accept what I got and to make do with what I have... Because I can. Because I am. And because I will Don't believe me? No worries, man Let me prove it to you… [Verse 1: Josh Smith] Underestimated should be the name on my birth certificate They said I couldn't stick with it, listen, now you can witness it Made my flow articulate, pen and paper I scripted it Thought I was a joke then? Well now I'm straight up ridiculous New in the game, got no shame Here to claim a name with thoughts of fame Fortune, success, money excess, what's the difference, it's all the same Here to prove a point to y'all, I was born and bred to ball I'm not a frickin' corner store so treat me like super mall I will not fall. I'ma keep escalating this ladder You can follow but you'll fail and tumble down right to the ground until you splatter No longer do your opinions matter Just keep up the jibber-jabber, watch as my pockets get fatter I'm where I'm supposed to be, some might call it destiny This is the purest form of me, don't worry B, there's more to see More to hear year after year, no plan to stop I have no fear The captain of this rapping boat, so move on over let me steer Zero chains, no ice, second will never suffice Believe I'm going places dawg, don't even gotta think it twice Jesus Christ made my life purposeful with meaning So I don't see why some people still seem to have a problem with me I'm gifted; I knew it from the very beginning But where I'm going is depending on where I'm heading God forbid that I end up left back in the dust That's enough, raise your cup, only place I'll ever be going is up Wa**up? [Interlude: Josh Smith] And that was only the first verse Still got so many bars left up in my archives Why are you guys so silent all of a sudden? Yeah, No I got some more for you Yeah, yeah, yeah... [Verse 2: Josh Smith] Alright, I get it man I'm not what you wanted, you'll have to deal with that “Why he talk so white and act Caucasian, I thought he was black?” I'm not stereotypical, this rap is not some ritual No saggy pants or swear rants, I'm educated and spiritual I'm mystical, people shocked 'cuz they have never seen this My lines so cheesy, I should be calling this album Cheez-Its Keep this in your mind, next time you see a news headline You'll read “Kid's Rhymes are Quite Sublime, His Tape's Online, You Need This!” (Dang) And I would agree, I would say this is the life that has been chosen for me I gotta work on it though, you don't get nothing for free Only exception would be that winning mentality Forget working that nine to five, I'm working way overtime No days off, on the real, I'm working into the night Don't ask me how I do it, why I do it you already know I got something on my chest and I'm ready to let it go I'm tired of tryna pretend to be someone I know I'm not Realizations take place and it's amazing how Supa Hot I can be, see with me, this music stuff is all I got I'll have your mind in circles like donut rings a parking lot It doesn't matter to me what people think, I could care less My life ain't the best, and yes, I know it's a mess But I ain't stressed, see I'm blessed for my existence on this earth Dead is the old Josh, by listening you're witnessing my rebirth I'm underestimated and under appreciated, never faded And never stopping until I finally make it It's J-Smeezy boy!
