[Intro]
Yeah
This shit is so fire, bro
Uh, uh-uh, yeah

[Verse]
Uh, I'm still the same kid
Vision's a little clearer
Tryna become the man that I want to see in the mirror
Getting older and bigger
Now Mom's starting to tear up
'Cause there was so many people who said I wouldn't be here but I knew
Deep in my heart that I had ice in my veins
And I ain't special, I just know I'm not created the same
So when a pussy motherfucker says to stay in my lane
I cannot help but write a verse that puts me up there with Jay
I studied the greats and I do what it takes to get there
If I want to be the captain, I'm supposed to make the ship steer
With that being said, I got the passion so I'm destined to last
A bright future, why the fuck do I still dwell in the past?
I felt alone 'cause people couldn't understand me
That goes for my teachers, for my friends, and all my family
I wish that I could find a better reason but I can't 'cause I just want to tell my grandma that her boy just won a Grammy
So many of us wonder if we're meant for more than this
I promise that we got a purpose and I'm sure of it
But fame is just an ego trip that forces you to lie again
Bitch, I'm insecure and I'm tired of fucking hiding it
This is not a gimmick that's gone in an instance
I gotta be putting my heart on a sleeve
Fuck a barrel of money because there ain't nobody that is doing it harder than me
And I'm accustomed to barely budging
So I find it funny they trying to compete
'Cause this is more than just an image, motherfucker this is me
Boy I'm dangerous
I'm glad that they came at us
They said my dreams were crazy
Well, good thing I'm insane enough
Like haters come and step to me, don't make me embarrass you
'Cause I am better than half of the rappers you compare me to
This is for anybody who said I wasn't built for this shit
Man just a year ago, I think I would have killed for this shit
All of the blood, sweat, and tears that I have spilt on this shit
Man, I'm just tryna show the world that I'm for real with this shit
And I've always worn my heart up on my sleeve
I remember I used to rap till I could barely fucking breathe
So I ain't playing when I say this shit is do or die
This is more than just a hobby, this is keeping me alive
