Gotta go all the way the fuck out this year All the way the fuck out this year Straight to the top, let them know I'm here Oh you headed to the top? Yeah, way up there I could barely pay my lights now I got a chandelier Never listen to the people saying life's not fair Shit, I don't even let them get close to my air All my energy became my peers, aye All my energy became my peers, oh Said I had a vision, really had a vision Know this shit was written from the beginning Now I'm really about to go and make a pivot Yup, that's right, I did it from the start to the finish I could do this in my sleep, on the track, I'm dreaming Had to make a difference, had to change the way I'm living Had to show my parents as a kid I wasn't kidding I'm feeling so terrific, should've been on my birth certificate I make this music for the kids, tryna get their mind right Look what time's like, get that sad shit up off my timeline Top 5, dead or alive, you cannot stop my shine You can try but I'ma be alright Yeah let's take em way back to the place that I came from Minnesota Where the air the coldest Everybody told me I was hopeless and they were right I got no hope, I notice, I could be the dopest I could be the one to bring the picture back in focus I could write an Opus, I could a locust I could be the one to conquer all those that control us Fuck everything they told us, I could be the boldest I could be the one who [?] I could be the one that never quit till I get the world to notice Or the one that disappears so quick
Everybody on their back from the gutter Some look up to the stars Don't know why we lie to each other Instead of in each other's arms Try to shoot em' down with a peace sign Bounce back twice as hard Now we gotta fight em with three eyes Maybe third time's a charm Oh we back? Alright
[Verse 2] Hocus pocus, thought I was bogus Till they saw me rap on Power 106 Freestyle so sick thought that I wrote it My mouth open, they was like, "Oh shit" Get 'em on the phone, find out if his soul is On the market for a platinum and golden That's when [?] picked up the phone and told them I thought you got a big enough signing bonus Know this flow is, priceless Wouldn't trade it for an iced up wrist Homie, all that really tell you is the time it is Homie, all that I can tell you is that I'm timeless Every time the clock tick I get more legit Not talkin' 'bout the big hand So just imagine what I can do it in a minute D-d-damn, I don't get it, what'd you do I'll admit it, I just put on a clinic Of how to eat a beat without a gimmick How to rap about the life you really living How to get in front of cameras and critics And really spit a verse that wasn't written But you forgive it 'cause I been in that position Used to practice in my kitchen for the one that I be sittin' next to Had the beat in the morning, NYC Turn five fingers of death and left two fingers peace And I'm cool
This that incense lit, 1970 shit You finna feel me baby We gonna give them something to talk about Jack
I just had a flashback to when they all laughed at Every single track that I dropped, but I never stopped May have took a loss, but I never been afraid to pay the cost Never been afraid to break laws, I'm my own boss That should be obvious, yup so obvious Try to copy my songs, get straight knocked off I'm just tryna help 'cause I know y'all lost It's a god damn shame that this beat cut off
