“From the Ground Up”
by Bakes

Made it from the ground up
Homie, now what?
Lookin’ at the top, yeah that’s where you found us
Built it from the ground up
Now they round up 
To see me hit the stage for these racks I count up
Did it from the ground up
Built my sound up
And know we only ever keep the real around us
Made it from the ground up
Had to mount up
Show them how it’s done, I ain’t talkin’ ‘bout luck 
Built it from the ground up

I know just where to begin
From the time I started rappin’, always knew that I could win
Then I laid my own foundation, brick by brick, and with cement
I became solidified, and I don’t got time to lament
But I know that lookin’ back at my struggle, it makes me humble
Tryin’ to navigate it through a concrete jungle
And you know I self-funded myself, no uncle
Or anyone that could put up the money, I had to buckle
Down, and sacrifice but no, that don’t do it justice
Always knew that I was born to lead, just like Augustus
And when I look around, I see so many snakes amongst us
I just hope they’ll never say they punked us
‘Cause I stayed ready and prepared for whatever had came along
You would hear me gettin’ better every time I made a song
And I built relationships, no I never played them wrong
Buildin’ up my empire, feelin’ like I’m Genghis Khan

Made it from the ground up
Homie, now what?
Lookin’ at the top, yeah that’s where you found us
Built it from the ground up
Now they round up 
To see me hit the stage for these racks I count up
Did it from the ground up
Built my sound up
And know we only ever keep the real around us
Made it from the ground up
Had to mount up
Show them how it’s done, I ain’t talkin’ ‘bout luck 
Built it from the ground up

Made improvement every day, look what I became
To the fire from a flame, it's a higher game
I inspire brains, people that desire change
Or in dire straights, I’m going to show them what it takes
To be a boss in the world that you created
And always showin’ love, to anybody who aided
Yeah, I had to believe it in myself to be the greatest
While they were sleepin’ on me so hard, they looked sedated
But now you see me waking them up, and ain’t got no alarm
Ain’t no reason y’all cannot admit that I’ve been goin’ hard
Wavy, and I keep some beasts around me like it’s Noah’s Arc
I’m going to change the world, ‘cause I know just what my flow will spark
Genius
But I built myself into this
I was patient, while my determination was ruthless
Every step was calculated, I was never clueless
Dedicated my whole life, bitch, I really do this

Made it from the ground up
Homie, now what?
Lookin’ at the top, yeah that’s where you found us
Built it from the ground up
Now they round up 
To see me hit the stage for these racks I count up
Did it from the ground up
Built my sound up
And know we only ever keep the real around us
Made it from the ground up
Had to mount up
Show them how it’s done, I ain’t talkin’ ‘bout luck 
Built it from the ground up
