Loaded up, never froze when the pressure got thick,Came from the bottom where they said I’d never be shit, Now I’m outside with the crew gettin’ lit Still got scars from the days we were broke as it gets. Got a head full of plans and a pocket of dreams, Everybody wants gold but ain’t ready for schemes, Seen snakes in the grass and they ain’t what they seem, Cut ‘em off real quick, now I’m chasin’ the green. Late nights, no sleep, had to grind for a feed, Put my faith in myself, never followed the sheep, If I say it then it’s done, I ain’t talkin’ for keeps, Built it brick by brick while they counted my defeats. Got the heart of a lion and the mind of a thief, Stealin’ every opportunity they leave in the street, Every loss taught lessons, every win brought heat, Now they watchin’ from the sidelines while I conquer the beat. Young menace with a dream and a busted-up past, Everybody said quit but I was built to last, Middle finger to the doubters while I’m hittin’ the gas, Now they askin’ how I did it, happened way too fast. Still the same bloke chillin’ with the mates after dark, Just a little more focused and a lot more sharp, Turned pain into fuel, now I’m makin’ a spark, Tryna leave a damn legacy instead of a mark. Never needed fake love, never chased no fame, Seen too many switch up when the money came, So I stay ten toes and I stay the same, If you’re real then you’re family, that’s the code I claim. Got a storm in my chest and a fire in my lungs, Still rappin’ for the kids where the struggle begun, Every setback’s a lesson, every battle gets won, And I ain’t done yet, nah, I’m only gettin’ spun. Forty-four bars deep and I’m still on attack, If life throws punches then I’m throwin’ ‘em back, From the gutter to the stars, that’s a hell of a track, And if they doubt me once more, tell ’em watch me adapt.
