[Verse 1]
I'm surrounded by these faces but they all looking the same
Only hit me if they need me, doubt they even know my name
Only know me by my alias. Don't come around my area
Cause we don't got no room for lames
You could catch me up on Chesapeake. Young and was acting recklessly
Picking up by the 70. Steadily selling remedy
But now I've moved on to breathlessly spitting melodies
No longer doing wrong, getting rid of all the tendencies
That I used to have. Now I'm making enemies
By now I'm f**ing used to that, I bet its just the jealousy
But I ain't really new to that. And I ain't really new to rap
You know the early bloomers back
[Hook]
Man its early in the AM
The instrumentals playing, and these verses I be laying
On these beats that be replaying
Through your speakers, got u praying
That defeat will come my way and u can step up in my place man
[Verse 2]
But that's not about to happen
Ill be living in Manhattan
With a girl, you know she Latin
And Id call that satisfaction
I work wit no distractions
Got my homies by my side. you can't split us like a fraction
So I doubt you wanna try
We gon' make it in this game together, you gon' fall behind
We gon make it in this game whether you like it or deny
Whats sitting right in front of you, i figure that you blind
Either that or you just stupid, so move it and let me shine
If you don't think i can do it, ill prove it through all these lines
Already started a movement, now give it a little time
The rap game is so diluted by losers who claim they grind
But they won't pay a producer some loot for their work and time
That's how you know they ain't really about their craft
That's how you know they ain't really about their cash
They just looking for some handouts
The shows and money don't come fast, u gotta standout
From the rest of the crowd
Ain't enough to just be good, wan' be the best in the crowd
Better than all of the rest of em now
Little different than symmetrical clowns
In my city, we ain't stressing em now
[Hook]
Man its early in the AM
The instrumentals playing, and these verses I be laying
On these beats that be replaying
Through your speakers, got u praying
That defeat will come my way and u can step up in my place man
[Verse 3]
Don't know who you think you are
Man I just wanna be far
Soon as i can drive a car, ill be anywhere but here
And I'm shooting for the stars
Won't be looking in the rear view mirror. I ain't looking at the start
I'm looking where I'm going. I'm just following my heart
I never plan on slowing man u know I'm going hard
So I'm focused on these poems, that I'm writing in the dark
And I'm blowing on this potent, know its time to let it --- spark
Used to search up through my contacts always looking for a dime
You can take that how u want to, doing both up at the time
A 10 she coming over, she just hit me on my line
Never thought when i was older she would still be on my mind
[Hook]
Man its early in the AM
The instrumentals playin, and these verses I be laying
On these beats that be replaying
Through your speakers, got u prayin
That defeat will come my way and u can step up in my place man
