Yeah
(Ayy, man, turn that up)

I'm not tryin' to be no legend, I'm not a rapper
Just good with words, just want my flowers
The ashwagandha to calm my nerves 
I put in hour after hours before the deal 
Back when it was just me, Ry, Jimmy and Will
At the dojo, eighty-nineteen, we tip the scale
I've been livin' in my truth since 2012
I've been spittin' in the booth since Nine was Milly Mill
Yellin', "Free my nigga Preston," like, Lupe and Chilly Chill
It was C-I double A, Cole mans and Miguel
I was backstage like I'm just a cashier
If I play my cards right, maybe this my last year
Even though it took five, hail a nigga right here, yeah
I don't take nothin' for granted
You reap what you sow when you plantin'
Some days I just don't have the answer, but my feet, they solid
They plan it 'cause this shit outstanding

You can't tell me how to feel, this shit my life
I can tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got shit to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
You can't tell me how to feel, this shit my life
I can tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got shit to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight

I used to be so naïve in the beginning
The first that I got 
The more I realize shit different 
The pockets you watch
You should be paid on commission
This was my call and my intuition
Had to let go of the time and the whole for wishin'
Watch my life unfold, like what a feelin'
Some days I be unapologetic
Some days I understand you won't get it
Never take it wrong when I'm dissin'
I've been workin' on myself for a minute
Hate when people say they want a part of me
But can't accept the me that I give 'em
My daughter gettin' older, so I'm livin'
If I could, I wouldn't do it any different
Money be the goal, not the mission
I hope that when you get older
You understand all the shit that I have sacrificed
Despite how they feel, I did all I could do
Just for you so that you have a better life

You can't tell me how to feel, this shit my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got shit to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
You can't tell me how to feel, this shit my life
I can't tell you this ain't happen overnight
When you ain't got shit to lose, hmm, got to roll the dice
I ain't got nothin' to prove, hmm, this ain't no overnight
