You don't want to grow up to be me
'Cause I've shattered your dreams
But you got to grow up quick, kid
This world ain't what it seems
This dream that you have
Is nothing but a lie
You don't make it
That's fake shit
You're just dying inside
'Cause you've wasted your life
Trying to make something of your name
But you don't, you failed, I failed you
You ain't even close to fame
So let go of this path, please kid you've still got time
To make something of your life that doesn't involve a rhyme

Why you saying all this to me
Don't you dare try to discourage me
I'ma work an eternity for this dream
I feel a surge in me
It's occurred to me
I'll go places, they'll come to my shows
I'll look them in their faces, tell them I did it on my own
I'm motivated, heart of gold
Trying to get these bars and flows
To reach people, not halo
To teach people to save their souls
So, stop telling me to hang rap by a rope
Go home, I'm done listening to you, just 'cause you lost hope

What you talking 'bout putting work in
A couple nights, a couple verses
Then you whine and cry about how you deserve it
You ain't earned shit
This a hobby, not a purpose
'Cause you're too scared
To even put your music out there
Man, you're fucking worthless
You're not a fucking wordsmith
You're just a fucking kid
You don't do what Em, Hop, Tech, or Nate did
You don't end up like Joyner, Logic, or Futuristic
You never make it to the top, never make it big
And I'm not being hopeless
Man, I'm just being real
Don't forget, I'm you, I used to feel what you feel
The urge to make a difference
The urge to break the seal
Of what somebody's purpose is
With words that have appeal
Truth is, I know it hurts but that just isn't real
And I just want you to be able to pay the bills
I want you to be a first, just
A first in something else
I want you to have a purpose, but I don't want you to fail

Dude, failing's a part of life
We fail, we improve from it
Since you used to be me, you should know I won't move from this
I know I should put more work in on my own
But that's just another part of life, learning as I go
Learning as I grow, learning as I become a man
I know I ain't perfect but I want to be the best that I can
And how am I supposed to do that, if I don't make mistakes
As long as I got my determination, I'll do whatever it takes
Plus I don't want to be like these other people, they ain't me
Sure they're huge inspirations but frankly, I'm my own breed
I want to spread my own message
Want to plant my own seed
I want to prove to people this is truly who I'm meant to be
The dude who's inspired you to be true to yourself
And think through everything you do, but still be able to roll
With the punches to the gut that you know life'll throw
But take those punches head on and run straight for the throne
Don't let doubts or fear hold you back from what you should own
Now's the chance to go out and make yourself known
Yeah
