It feels like I fell off I ask myself, If I wasn't doing this music Would I be better off or we'll off My biggest enemy's my inner me Paranoid by this anxiety That's living inside of me But I'll always show y'all the best side of me I'm tethered to this dream It's like this shit is tied to me They told me that I can't do this Its unrealistic, unattainable But I always figured that they'd try to lie to me Its a new decade, new era My vision couldn't be any clearer I'm coming up and I'm striking with terror I ain't living in the past My futures coming hella fast The presents a bitch It hurts but Imma let it pass Like the blunts with the homies If y'all think I'll ever stop Then you don't truly know me Won't let you all control me I can't be mediocre I'm tryna ride in Chauffeurs Mom thinks I'll be forty with nothing to show for Nothing to show her Well I'm finna show her All her hard work paid off Them bills will get paid off by me Make up for all the shit she couldn't buy me Born and raised a refugee Momma held it down she kept it G Lord knows my momma tried While battling her own demons inside Uneducated single mother of five Yah we barely survived Yet we made it alive Yah we switched up the tides Cause' I should not be alive See, this is God's test for me Now it's my testimony To make sure I don't switch up once I tasted money And If I do Imma ask that he takes it from me And If I do Imma ask that he takes it from me This the devils industry Full of devils in da' streets The same guy to pop a cap in me You'd think was feelin' me (Let me tell you) I ain't tryna be a one hit wonder I won't get slept on, I won't let y'all slumber (Let me tell you) I'ma keep dropping hits after hits every summer I drop singles on you like its thunder My time is near 2020 is my year Let me make this clear I'm locking down on this career for real Don't talk to me unless we talking business and statistics I got obstacles I'm tryna murder on my hit list I'm a hit man, I'm making hits man Watching rhythm and flow I'm taking tips man, from Tip, man You either with me or against me You better pick man If you don't fuck with my shit don't worry I won't trip man I don't do that no more Numbers going up, but I need more In five years top I'll be selling out tours I ain't a sell out But I want my shows to sell out Tryna be stuck in your mind like Jordan peels' get out I cook this music out from nothing like its alchemy I suggest these labels start looking out for me I don't practice writing and flow I just write and let it flow I don't overwrite the beat I just write it slow I don't override the beat I just ride it slow This shit natural to me That's my work flow I wrote this song just off the raw sample No drum loops or melody, just raw samples A glimpse of my creative mind for example I'm on my hustle and my grind, that's what I stand for When I think back a lot of people made an impact Like James Ko, who wants me to succeed like Bezos Shout out to all my big bro's Who kept me going And taught me to pursue my big dreams and big goals So fuck until my idols are my rivals Imma take my idols titles Put that on my mom, Put that on the bible This that new wave, and I ain't talking tidal I work hard for my shit, I was never born entitled Engineer producer solo artist, that's a triple threat Imma break the fucking internet And once I break into this industry, Imma be a major threat I'm hungry dawg, so what the fuck you expect And to the visionaries They hate us cause they ain't us Bunch of assholes mad we bout to be famous I can't allow myself to die nameless I shoot my goals up high While y'all shoot yours so aimless I ain't a priest, I don't fit into the mass Born to be different, fuck permission, I ain't gotta ask Y'all put the less in hopeless Y'all better fucking quote this When you give up too soon You'll never know what hope is Its written in the stars that Imma be a star Don't let other people tell you who the fuck you are Didn't listen to nobody and made it this far Cause' deep down you truly know who you are (Let me tell you) And you a star, you star (you a star) Yah, you a star, you a star (you a star) You a star, you a star man (you a star man) You a star you a star (you a star) To my younger self (Let me tell you) I'm proud of you and how far you came along And to my future self (Let me tell you) I'm catching up
