Yea, yea, here we go Alright lets get it I'm writing this from my lowest place, but feeling at my highest place I've never been this financially low, I've never been this emotionally low But I still ready to grip the mic and go Unload my bars, aim for the top of the charts and put tape out for critics to tear apart Since the second I stepped in the game, I fell in love with the game I ain't felt the same since I picked up the pen, since I started my poetic work back then All my life I felt like the underrated lefty spending all my life in the bullpen like Righetti Everyday I've been getting warm, getting ready, waiting for my time to drop bombs like Eddie Most of y'all won't understand these last punches Because you ain't know what game I ran before I rapped about how I run this Ducked and dodged my way through grade school Never had fulfillment like an empty swimming pool I did my work to keep my dad cool I did my work to show my teachers I was no fool Then my whole life change after 6th grade More households rearrange, my family fade Finally got them off my back and got some space At 13 I was running around all over the place Never scared for my safety, just happy I got my first lady It was every Tuesday and Thursday her and I were exploring actions that wouldn't make a baby I was just a kid and her mom hated me because I was shady She didn't like my life's lack of parental control How I could walk out my house and take a midnight stroll That isn't how my life suppose to go, but would I change it? With all that time on my hands I could make big plans and dream of being the worlds richest man I ain't ever touch substances, no alcohol, no drugs, cuz I knew that could f*ck it up Stuff like that put me down on my luck, yea Stuff like that put me down on my luck It wasn't till 10th grade that I found my ability to write Looking back on it I was up late every night Just pouring feelings out, every emotion going out, every memory to the page Only thing I could do to keep me out my hypothetical cage See, mama had another baby on the way and her baby daddy was the only one getting paid That left little Shell with a notebook and feelings that his family overlooked Most of it was anger, didn't start trying to rhyme until a year later 17 was his first year screaming f*ck a hater and getting thoughts that rhyming may be his wager against the odds His main paper maker that gets him out dead end jobs I didn't have enough confidence to grab a mic until I was 18 But the second I did I became a fiend It was just my friends and me all huddled around a PC Taking rounds on the mic till dark, taking rounds on the mic bar for bar Bones, Hound and P That was our names I had so much stresses in my real life, but I gripped the mic and it went away Spit it all out and let it float away That was the moment I realized, this is what I want to do every fucking day A couple months pass, go through some heart break Find a pen again and start prepping up this rhyme cake Perfectly layered emotions and all I'll finish this tape even if I gots to crawl I'm in this game for the long haul, yea
