Don P - What It's Like lyrics

[Chorus: Bling Face] Cause this is What It's Like to get in the rap game (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like when you start out rappin (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like to get in the rap game (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like when you start out rappin (This is What It's Like) [Verse 1: Biggins] It's a cold world that we livin in Minds like a can of garbage, lift the lid, and fill it in Gettin harder to be me, to be free, don't you see? Let's untie the knots of bondage, mental slavery They'll throw you in a pit of lions, keep on lyin Tell you you're not working hard enough, come on and keep tryin And I guess to some extent, yeah, they're right You're a survivor This is more than just survivin, keep on strivin To be a better you than yesterday You're up to bat, step up to the plate And let me tell ya, cause you need to know Life's about the struggle but also the ascension Don't just stick to playin the position you were given And when they talk don't let them forget to mention How they got to where they are and when they needed the help Did they simply get a handout or did they have to yell? (Talking) So just remember this, choose the ones you look up to wisely Don't place your idols too high up on the pedestal Cause if they fall, you might just fall too And if they define you, getting back up might not be so easy [Chorus: Bling Face] Cause this is What It's Like to get in the rap game (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like when you start out rappin (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like to get in the rap game (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like when you start out rappin (This is What It's Like) [Verse 2: Bling Face] I put the cake in the oven Forgot to hit "Start Bake" for 2 dozen Months before I noticed I punched in that bu*ton Watch as I finally become a real poet Even though it's heating up slowly I feel so close and cozy where I am But it's baloney that it's not rising Maybe it's the timing And I'm not trying to be whiny I'll just keep writing, rhyming Driving, and striving til I'm shining The cake heating up Was a metaphor for my sk** speeding up Sneakin up behind everyone Sweepin em' up Never saw it coming Cause it was covered in a cupboard Just sneaking it out with a side of beets now; Takes a lot to sit-up, keep your chin-up Not hiccup and give up When you don't get many listena's While haters are saying your sh** s**s Still got a lot to fix-up But just keep fighting Hope that one day you'll see lightening Of your success striking before your eyes Adore your supplies Absorb who*es that rise Mature metaphors and rhymes Detour pure tries Reform your lies Improvise a disguise To endure more eyes (Talking) So just remember this There's like 7 billion people in this world You do have a chance of a lot of people liking your music And not everybody's gonna like it But f** the haters, rap your heart out! [Chorus: Bling Face] Cause this is What It's Like to get in the rap game (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like when you start out rappin (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like to get in the rap game (This is What It's Like) This is What It's Like when you start out rappin (This is What It's Like) [Outro: Bling Face] Yo Biggins! I think we k**ed that sh** Haha
