[Intro]
Yo, I'm thankful for everything I've been given
A sick producer, shout out to Adam Fishman
My big brother Michael Finn
All the features on the tape
You know who you are
My fam
Aight, let's get it
[Verse]
Ugh, when I die, I hope to leave a legacy
What if I don't? Thoughts like this often enter me
I could be a around for a century
But did I really do enough to last inside your memories?
For now, I'm just tryna grow
Late nights with the pen and paper, that's when time moves slow
Time moves fast, when we on the road
Like we runnin sprints in the gym, homie, back and forth
Got no time for nothin, not family, not friends, or sports
Sometimes I wonder what I started rappin for
Then I remember why, and who I'm motivated by
I see you cuz', and I know you see me from the sky
Look at how I've grown, I'm hopin that I bring you pride
Spittin all this in the booth for you so teary-eyed
Two tapes later and I couldn't feel greater
Not workin for the cheese, tryna get through like a grater
So every track I snap, attack it like an alligator
Halfway through this fight, but Ali's always greater, yeah
Flow hotter than May Weather, but I prefer July
Young B buzzin, bout sting ya from behind
Started on the side but I aimed to be more than just that guy
Since mom and pops told me that I wasn't really average
For 18 years, I didn't understand it
That they weren't naggin, rather braggin, bout my talents
That I could be a star like an asterisk
And now I ride momentum like Ricky Bobby rode ballads
Oh, Yeah
Yeah
If you're not first, you're last
‘Fore you burst, you gotta crash
Cuz you really gotta fail, 'fore you ever getta pa**
Six years tryna make a hit, now I'm boutta smack
Make it with my brothers, crackle, pop, and snap
From the Chi, felt the Heat, no Lebron never left the Cavs
Carryin the city with my feet, feelin like a champ
Ah
Yeah
No crown, no king, no rings, but I exceed your expectations
I'm not fit for this game, Stephen Curry, I'm an ankle breakin
Game changin MC
Stickin with my sound and my people, yeah, we still hangin
Yeah, one man can change the world, and it can take a good time
But I got hope for my tape like the day Sean looked me in the eye and took mine
Man, anything can happen
I swear, anything can happen
[Nona]
Trust me, Barry
If you stick to it
I'll take a bet with you
We'll bet 500
That you make it
That's how confident I am that you make it
