Yeah, one-two one-two, yeah
Man this sound like the outro, this sound like the end of the album
You know what I'm saying? This is the end of the journey right here
Yeah, uh (Dang man, that's smooth)
The dream never left me like I never left the Burgh
The drive never stopped even when life takes a turn
I've been through ups and downs, been through a lot of hurt
Been through my share of pain, take it as a lesson learned
Momma taught me how to tie my shoe laces
So I could make a run for myself but who was I racing
Imaginary places, unfamiliar faces
As long as I can remember man I was chasing
Back when I was pushing free beats for a placement
Back when we was shooting album covers in the basement
Back when we was shooting promos at the train station
Back when I was writing raps like working on vacation
Backpack rapper, same hoodie as yesterday
No this ain't my planet nah, I was never meant to stay
Let my experience shape me like a lump of clay
I was always five moves ahead before I made a play
Try to erase me from the page but I never fade
Try to say farewell but I never wave
Try to take me out the frame but I'll never stray
Try to put the pressure on me but I'm pressure made
Out of the dirt, out of the dust, down on my luck
Running a muck, skipping my class, I was on the bus
Who was I running from? All of my problems
But dawg I swear that you ain't never help me solve 'em
You was sitting on the curb like waiting for your mom to get ya
Hitchhiker rappers you just waiting for a pickup
Riding the waves, nah you just a lonely drifter
But waves still crash you still falling off quicker
You testing my patience and I got tired of waiting
So I did it myself, everything but time I was taking
Yeah I always knew it was the music I'll be embracing
I'm talking way before me and A*** started dating, hold up, haha
Yeah, I know you probably ain't listening
Songs with your name in it, yeah you prob'ly dissing it
You got a great spirit, yeah of course you worth mentioning
Hit me up if you tryna talk just friends again
I feel exes never really just friends again
We see each other in public and we just play pretend
Small talking, but I just want to ask if you got a man
If you found someone as good as me I'll never understand
Thought I found a woman I would hold onto til the end
Had to go my own way, now I'm all alone again
All up on the road again, all up from the soul
Said they had the game on lock, but I'm trying to crack the code again
Used to watch them freestyles on TeamBackpack
Learned to walk around middle school with a snap back
Learned to pen these stories in my lyrics, never lack that
I'm Frank Sinatra fly, but I ain't in the rat pack
Made in His image, I'm a God made invention
Worship is my weapon I got clips with the extension
Busting shots at the devil man I'm reckless
Plotting in the night so my enemies are restless
I just wanted a chance they wouldn't give me nothing
Tried to make me quit, but you won't never see me budging
Now I'm setting trends in my neighborhood, no fronting
It wasn't overnight success I know I can't be rushing
Man these part time artists just a distraction to me
Rapping in your offseason, but y'all can't even play with me
We ain't in the same league, no we not the same breed
My role models say it's my turn just to take the lead
I relay beats to Mayce he like "Bet, that's a layup"
Sent it back the same night I said "This going way up"
Not a lot of people doing it like us man, straight up
I've got to thank the Lord, He the reason I never gave up
Yeah, He the reason I never gave up
Yuh, you know I gotta stay prayed up
Never selling my soul I never pay up
I've got to thank the Lord, He the reason I never gave up, yeah
