[Narration] LADIES AND GENTLEMEN RAPLOVER.....ON THE MIC!.... ITS ABOUT TO GET LIT!...get ready. .... .... .... [Raplover|Verses] yhea.... uh.... yheah... listen to this..... Uh.... Raplover..... Yeah... Uh... You know? You know what time it is? Came through quiet, coat full of cold. No gold in the glow, just a road I was told. Wasn't built for the throne, so I built me a road. Now the road got a name and the name got a pulse. Kept ten toes while the floor kept shifting. Same four walls, but the view kept switching. They were talking in circles, I was drawing distinctions. Funny how silence gets loud when the results start speaking. No handouts, just hands on the craft. No fast lane, had to map out the path. Took the long route, put the miles in the math. Now the distance I walked is the gap that they lack. Talk big? Cool, let the facts translate. I don't need a caption when the actions update. Had a little on the table, made a lot from the plate. Now I eat where I used to just stare at the place. I ain't waitin'. I been buildin'. Brick by brick(For real?) With the blueprint hidden(Damn!) Every loss left a line in the ledger(Eyy) Every wrong turn made the next one better(Ey) Had the weather against me, still changed my direction(EY) Now the forecast reads different whenever I enter Step in Room shift New weight Same fit Old doubts Don't fit New page Same script Hold up... Wait... Y'all hear that? Nah? Good. Keep sleepin'. You know? You know? You know? what time it is?(EY) Time's up. My turn. Yeah, I'm takin' it.(EY) You know?(EY) You know?(EY) Better tell your friends.(EY) They ain't see me comin' Now they see me again. My turn. My turn. Say it again. My turn. My turn. Back then: “No chance.” I remember. Didn't answer. Just measured. Right now? Big change. Same dream. New pressure. Same name. New chapter. Still me. Just harder to read between the letters. No co-sign. No green light. No line that I needed to cross twice. Door closed? Fine. I learned how to enter Without asking the lock for advice. They talk in headlines. I move in footnotes. They look for the moment. I work on the whole quote. No flash when I started. No crowd when I practiced. Now the room gets quiet When the pattern gets established. Beat cut. ... Still doubt? Crazy. Used to watch the clock Like the hands had the answer. Now the hands move around me While I move like the answer. Used to wait for a sign Till the signs got blurry. So I wrote one in motion And let everybody worry. No luck in my pocket. Just nights I can't count. A few scars on the plan And a reason they stayed. Turned “maybe someday” Into “move, I'm already.” Didn't make an announcement. The evidence came ready. You know? You know? You know what time it is? Time's up. My turn. Yeah, I'm takin' it. You know? You know? Better tell your friends. They ain't see me comin' Now they see me again. My turn. My turn. No speech. No warning. My turn. My turn. You know now. Yeah... Ey... uh... You know what time it is? Raplover...... My turn...
