[Verse]
They said I gotta come back harder this time
But living where I live it's hard to get shine
Forget all that, I gotta get mine
I can't let it get me out of my mind
They be like "Yo Swan man, we so proud of you, all your music man it's so powerful"
It was a whole year that I was out of school because the rap thing I know how to do
It just got me chasing my dreams, plans of making them real
When they love you it's fake, but when they hate you it's real, but I'm putting on for Springfield
That be the Bay State of Mind
That be the reason that I cannot vacate the grind
I been so quiet but trust me I'm working, you can't rush perfection I'm taking my time
So if they hate me it's fine, know that I'm good cause I still elevate and I climb
Take it one day at a time, I'm getting stronger, I'm fighting, I'm chasing my prime
Cause it's amazing that I'm getting respected I step up the way that I rhyme
They tell me keep working hard on your music I do it and still I'm not making a dime
Man I put my blood, sweat, and my tears in this
I appear to peers as a lyricist
I make all these songs so I'm never dead
They couldn't stand a chance with prosthetic legs
Tryna get ahead, so just let me shine or get left behind cause I'm next in line
I'm transforming my ways now, I got my brain on Decepticon
[Hook]
I'm working now to get stronger, I'm working now to get stronger
Just play the game and get smarter, cause now I gotta come harder (2x)
They said I gotta come back harder this time, they said I gotta come back stronger this time
If I'm hearing it then it's true, I got greatness all on my mind
And that's the reason why I can't quit, next time I'm coming stronger than this
If I never grow then I would probably just want to no longer exist
[Verse]
I really need somebody to tell me what's all the fuss about
Who are all these clowns I hear everybody discussin' 'bout?
Please don't think that I'm not observant because I shut my mouth
I been hearing nonsense in your content for too long like a coupon you need to cut it out
Hands in the air for the man of the year, got plans for the year, understand that I'm here
No I can't quit but I can persevere, timeless flow I can't disappear
The revolution, I can be Revere, but I must start with the man in the mirror
It's all for the fam and it's all for the fans, and it's all so I do what I can for this era
Lately I been in a daze, I miss being young I remember the days
We live in a time where too many afraid, and hate to admit we essentially slaves
So I'm Michael Jordan in quarter four cause I never wanted this more before
There's more in store, but you can't expect to get strong if you ain't been sore before
[Hook]
[Bridge]
I'm getting stronger, I'm only getting stronger yeah (3x)
I'm getting stronger
