[Intro] Thank you, thank you I appreciate it [First Verse] I raised the bar even when nobody spotted me Putting life to question my philosophy like Socrates A couple people hit me just to tell me that they proud of me But first to turn they back when nobody even smiled at me Victim of scatter brain like I'm Kurt Cobain Let a woman in your heart but it's all in vein I got my head in the clouds my n***a nothing was the same Until they let my n***a go free is his first name Feel like it's gun powder in our formula milk Lean in them baby bottles man survival's a sk** Taught to never love a woman everything is a k** Really living those scenes this ain't no movie reel And all they want is gun bars banana clip might appeal And they trying to catch us slipping like we stepped on a peel If I know nothing else just know I've always been real And your name don't ring no bells like determined navy seals [Verse Two] No running marathons for people who stay stagnant Lately my progression feel like I been going backwards Keep myself afloat I'm my own life jacket
When you on the come up all the leeches wanna jack it They trying to block my shine like they closing all the blinds Like a pro skateboarder man I'm always on my grind Had to take the subway just to stay on track The odyssey is desolate can you just wait on that Just keep it one hundred like test scores are perfect And my heart turning cold made these bars like a furnace To anyone who did me wrong man I pray that you heard this Had to learn the harder way your two pennies are worthless Feeling real spiritual in a prophet on verses We ain't going broke again Imma profit of verses Get rich or dying trying ya I'm feeling like Curtis Invest my last fifty cents on my talent and rapping I'm a hustler baby this flip is gymnastic Not believing what they make up that foundation collapsing [Outro] And I'm still real Jessee man, they thought since I was in college I wasn't still working We got to show them we still doing this Man I still go the bars for ya I really do EP January first Im home now but I might've got caught up with some girls upstate
