I had it and then I lost it
[Verse 1]
Welcome to the time of your life
Whenever I get mad, I feel like up'ing the price
They tell me I ain't got the accolades
I kept it realer than most, while your side walking ‘round like it's a masquerade
You could miss me with the misery
Don't visit me
Had to flip the table, tired of people that sit with me
Hire me, fire me
I'm searching for the higher me
I was taught to never boast ‘bout things acquired quietly
I learned a lot from my brothers, they taught me all I know
Life lessons during blunts, dutches burning slow
My intentions are really getting pretentious
If you ain't making dollars, then your time here is senseless
Go ‘head, let it marinate
I been low, playing it smart for 4 winters straight
I innovate and inspire, that's what winners do
Ain't no sense in hating, let's get to work we can get it too
[Hook]
If you ain't got a pa**ion, why you living?
If you ain't taking action, why you b**hing?
Go ‘head, tell me that I'm switching
Hard to stick together when you're sticking to your mission
Like
Not everyone's gonna make it
Opportunity ain't given, gotta take it
This for my all my go-getters
Working off no sleep
We don't know no better
If you ain't got a pa**ion, why you living?
If you ain't taking action, why you b**hing?
Go ‘head, tell me that I'm switching
Hard to stick together when you're sticking to your mission
Like
Not everyone's gonna make it
Opportunity ain't given, gotta take it
This for my all my go-getters
Working off no sleep
We don't know no better
[Verse 2]
I been going crazy tryna make it work
I been coming in last, just tryna make it to the first
I compose a verse, get up in my bag
Get the f** up out my feelings then get everything I never had
Whoa
They don't wanna see you live
They just wanna see you broke
Give a f** ‘bout what you give
The inspiration, priceless
Ain't no way to price this
You ain't gotta front
No one's forcin' you to like this
I remember, had to beg people to listen
Now I got the blind, always asking me for the vision
Asking me for ambition, asking me why I'm missin'
I got tired of being the person everyone was dissing'
Have you ever lost it all?
Always gettin' high
I'm not afraid to fall
I'm afraid of my self
I'm amazing my self
I been waitin' impatiently
Maybe I should rebel
Maybe I should rebel
I'm rounding up the troops
I'm gearing up for war
I'm lacing up the boots
Maybe I should fall back
Wait for jobs to call back
And give up on my dreams
Tell me what you call that
That's a motherf**ing loser
