[Intro] [Verse 1] It was all a dream, Watching the Grammys on the tv screen Realized I wanted to rap at the age of 15 Moment for life need life to give me a moment Swear once I get it I'm just gonna own it Put me on stage put me on tour I'll attack like an animal put on all fours Cause I'm more anticipated then the night before Christmas I promise you right now you don't wanna miss this City on my back I'm gonna carry this thing the full way These other boys is joke, they was born on april fools day I've got a list it's only fair that I rank them Starts with Kanye, can't wait to thank him Then Wayne, Drake, Cole and Kendrick Pac and Jay-Z, there's to many to mention I've been studying the greats, I'm head bu*ting with the gates People calling me the prez of the united states I could care less if the beat drops I just want the seat drops The beach shots, Instagram "look at what I eat" shots Something fancy and expensive that I'll eat with a gold knife Woman with an attitude or maybe just a bold wife There is no summer break, I'm just chilling by the pool Take it back to my 5th year attending school The first person I heard rap was ludacris I heard it on the radio, yo I am so new to this Flew with this all the way out to P.A Then I found Eminem and put his a** on reply How come by the dirty dozen Back when I was just the nerdy cousin Sitting basement of my uncle's playing halo with my cousins Ten years later on this track and I really start to buzzin If you ain't part of my crew, might wanna align yourself Cause it's a matter of time before I can't find myself Cause in 8th grade I started rapping as a joke Remixing songs for history that people thought were dope And I did as a joke and had people laughin I never thought career in music could actually happen Then I heard the Nicki song of the third dedication Parents drug tested me thought I was on that medication But nah I was just addicted to a chance To busy writing rhymes to go to the dance That was the year I started to chase music But I wasn't going to be one to abuse it I was gonna use and spit a message like lupe Don't care about the groupies, competition who they? Soph*more I kept writing rhymes But as kid who only saw dollar signs Rhymes were simple, people still liked em People were surprised that I typed em And finally I wrote a remix to runaway by ludacris But at this point I could say that I was not new to this I was my first good song it's a funny full circle High school I was the kid that always rocked purple After the song I started getting better Remix closer to a song about a girl in a sweater With a heart and if there is somewhere to start it would be there Nick Steele for president I soon would declare And then junior year scotty started rapping I guess you could call it that but people thought that he snapping And I couldn't believe that people couldn't see me So then I decided to make a CD So I spent hours and hours blowing off a**ignment Telling my Mr. B "Aye don't bother to a**ign this" Nah just playing I really worked my a** off 3 years later I saw my dreams blast off Cause I did something great don't keep it on the down low My album got just over 500 downloads And seeing how my audience is just media It means my album went around the world Expedia 500 downloads? I don't have that many friends! I think it's cause I'm not one of those rappers who pretends That I'm doing things I'm not or making threats against your living People heard the album like dude you're really spitting I'm always been different give my early stuff a listen And my mission is just to prove I'm a musician Put on for my city I'm a raisin in the sun I'm just out here crazing havin fun Amazing that I've come, back with so much confidence Dropped an album and the world I feel on top of it Feel like I accomplished it, something I set out to do My best friend texted me and said “I am so proud of you” And that right there was the best feeling in the universe Ain't no break, this track is just my universe This is just my galaxy, nas said the world is yours Steelematic, Steele at it, till I'm on the world tours While the world snores, I'm still putting work in Give me another beat so I can start merkin I'm out here shining bright like a diamond Nobody in my city better then me at rhyming This is my timing, my moment 4 life I'm shining when I smile I'll be golden 4 life Cather in the rye I'm holden 4 life I'm gonna be the greatest, I told em, 4 life Any one who doubted, should of never doubted me My best friend said she was motherf**ing proud of me Had to repeat that, got so happy I bezerked I just wanted to inspire, man I think it worked Any one who doubted, should of never doubted me My best friend said she was motherf**ing proud of me Had to repeat that, got so happy I bezerked I just wanted to inspire, man I think it worked [Outro]
