[Verse 1]
I truly started this rapping thing for respect
So I used to talk about the cars, money, and techs
Or how I'd grab a blade quick and slice yo' neck
See I will now if forced but that wasn't me yet
(Yea) But I ain't care 'cuz I was getting attention
'cuz when I spit whatever everybody would listen
And I felt good 'cuz I impressed every girl my age
(uh) Battled my n***a Cosmic and caught my first body
Then I won 25 spitting at Stevie's Party
And Muda spit that night too but I was chose the winner
So that had my head feeling big that whole winter
From that moment I knew this was my destany
The heart of the lion awoke from where it rested in me
I felt Superman strength the power vested in me
But I knew success for me wouldn't come so effortlessly
(Yea, Yea) So I wrote daily, wrote till my fingers were sore
Then I practiced what wrote and then I wrote some more
Inked my heart and soul in every page I've written
So you see why I go so hard on every line I'm spitten'
These bars are me, down to my last molecule
Every single atom and every hair follicle
The instrumental's my heartbeat I breathe life from these tracks
So I was birthed from the beats as a matter of fact
So for what they gave to me you know I gotta give back
So any half a**ed products I don't want my name attached
'Cuz I vow to produce the best music in my power
'Cuz I always deserve to be the man of the hour (CHEA)
[Hook 1 (x2)]
(uh) So this gone mark a new beginnin'
I'm done with the bullsh**, the playing and the grinnin'
It's time to put this work in
Get my team winnin'
'cuz greatness comes with time so that's all that we be spendin'
[Verse 2]
Im from the city where not many make it
And alot gave up but my dreams still ain't faded
And it never will till the day I'm living it
So I can't help but go so hard, style so belligerent
'Cuz I speak for every single Glock shot
Every single lost soul and every kid with out a pops
Spit for my brothers out there in them streets
And my fam chained up in that penitentiary
(Uh) 'Cuz these n***as been taking Ambien
They sleeping on a n***a that's bound to become a champion
I'm loading up these clips strapping on this vest
Ready to go to war to earn my spot as the best
So I'm fighting off my demons shooting up all my fears
Flipping off all my haters tell them all to kiss my rear
I'm on that straight away to glory but watching for them turns
'Cuz even in the perfect apple there can always be a worm
(Uh) But I swear this sh** was meant for me
These pens, these pads these beats they all make up my identity
Don't even have blood it's ink running through my veins
Don't even have thoughts just bars flowing through my brain
'Cuz without this music life has no meaning
'Cuz I'm truly just lyrics wrapped around a human being
I had to Loaded Lux this thang so you could get the work
And understand what it came to make up T-Hurt bruh
[Hook 2]
So this gone mark a new beginnin'
We done with the bullsh** the playing and the grinnin'
We finna put this work this work in
Get my team winnin'
'cuz greatness comes with time so that's all that we be spendin'
