[Verse 1: V-Dash]
The block too hot and everything I'm doing for this music
Won't improve until I make me another knot
My pop been telling me to hit the military for like 5 years
I'm hitting rock bottom now I gotta worry
I take the city bus to talk to a recruiter
I been through this before so I know the game he shooting
I cut straight to the chase told him bout my situation
He told me what the block did for him it had me thinking
I'm not in bad shape plus they pay for education
I'll miss the block but this opportunity I'm taking
I'm no stranger to war plus I get to buss rounds
And not worry about cops hemming me up now
I don't get to hear my brother calling me a bum now
Fans can't look up to V-Dash if he stuck down
Did my share of BS time to step it up now
Like a stock and I'll give you the rundown what now
[Hook: V-Dash]
Hey- I got a way
I'm bout to grind - get at this cake
And I don't got the pa - tience for lames
This is my life - it's not a game
I'm on another page - like I was saying
I gave it time - to come and play
But now it's a new day
And I have made - made up my mind
Mind...Mind... - I'ma win the game
[Verse 2: V-Dash]
Don't get it twisted I'm still a lyricist living
His life for the bigger picture the figures on my agenda
The difference is that I'm no longer sitting on corners spitting
These riddles with rhythm three dollar singles and penny pinching
I'm more walking the road in the woods with a rifle aimed low
Even though it's on safety pray it don't hit my pinky toe
Serving my country it humbles me everyday
And the craziest part about it theres others that feel the same
Went from a soldier on the block to a soldier for 50 states
Either way I'm a rydah for days I don't complain
I'm a take the rap game and put it back in its place
So yeah I'm back in your face and yeah I'm back in my place
I'm cracking the combination them numbers up on your safe
You were raw back in the day now you are losing your flame
With a boss when he keep jerking his workers from getting paid
He pissed off and now you paying the cost of karma
[Hook: V-Dash]
