[Hook]
I put it all on the line
I'm behind me and mine
I don't grind just to do it
I don't waste time when I'm doing what I'm doing
I put it all on the line
I'm behind me and mine
I don't grind just to do it
I don't waste time when I put it on the line
[Verse]
Okay it go: choose a beat, write to it then record it
It ain't all the time, that we do it in that order
Long as we can get it done, no procrastination right?
Starting from the basement is the only way to make it
I say starting from the basics is the only way to make it right?
Y'all don't got no bases y'all just write to make a statement right?
None of my time wasted, to be real you do no faking right?
I'm just saying, I ain't the fake it til you make it type
I don't rhyme, just to do it, I'm a student but still making moves
Witness greatness in the making, tell the great ones make some room
Cause I'll be damned, if i fall short in the long run
Understand, don't try me, y'all got the wrong one
I put too much on the line, I can't let my city down
Put the city on my back, I can't let my city down
There's too much to do, ain't got time to play around
My haters my supporters, bet they watching what they saying now
[Hook]
I put it all on the line
I'm behind me and mine
I don't grind just to do it
I don't waste time when I'm doing what I'm doing
I put it all on the line
I'm behind me and mine
I don't grind just to do it
I don't waste time when I put it on the line
[Bridge]
Patient, Day in, Day Out, Hol up, Wait, no I can't wait too long
Mirror, mirror on the wall, n***a what you waiting on?
Take it how you wanna? n***a don't you know the world is mine
Life's a b**h and she ain't mine
Never been my Valentine
[Verse]
Take it easy, no way, I've been waiting
Less I get signed to Dre, I'm not patient
Long time coming, long time coming
Long way to go for i ever get fame, but when i do
Ima take it a way back
Cut it all off, get a fade, bring the waves back
Get a wave cap, get it trending, then replace that
Sunin' all these n***as with the raps, they can't fade that
Flashing fettuccine in they face, call it payback
These rap n***as surrounded me, too many wack n***as around me
Hitting me up like “i was finna say that!”
Can't spit tsunamis, so I'm finna bring the waves back
Finna bring the ways backs, hip-hop
Jumping over beats with the bars, hopscotch
Laughing all the way to the bank like nana
Melody, modern day rappers, nana
I was destined for the fame from the start, 99
My aura been gold like i'm ol' Sean Don
Midwest reppin, til I go gold mine
Some say I'll go gold in no time
Be unstoppable like Drake in ‘09
Climb the charts til I hit cloud 9
On top of the world so they can see me shine
Success cost sacrifices, Put it all on the line
[Outro]
I put it all on the line
I'm behind me and mine
I don't grind just to do it
