I mean, twelve years is a long time to do anything
My whole time in the underground I was running wild in them streets, you know what I'm saying
I had a family to support
Amd the whole time Johnny  pushing me like, man, you have to do this man
You don't see it in yourself but
The world needs to hear what you're doing man
I never had the option to walk away

Let's go, my time
Eyes low, staring out at that skyline
Steep road, I climb
Eyes low, staring out at that skyline

And I'm dreaming bout what might be
While I'm stressing out bout what's likely
That I'll break my back on a truck for a buck while my rhyme book turns to a pipe dream
So I lace the kicks, before I hit the bricks I roll up a few sticks and make sure they fat
Then grab the coat and that stash of dope and head up the block where them dollars at
And grandma crying, her heart aches for mine, she can't take no more and she wants me to quit
And I got Johnny saying just for get tw streets amd pick up the pen and we can do this shit
Got pressure from everything direction, heavily stressing
My girlfriend pregnant again and somehow I gotta protect them
So I put down the gun amd I pick up the mic
I'ma fight for mine and I'ma change my life
I'ma give it everything that I got tonight
But this shit better work dog, you better be right
'Cause the bills are piling and the pressure is killing me
I know you always say there ain't nobody out there ill as me
But that's a lot of responsibility
And I wonder what if we put this shit out and there just ain't nobody feeling me
A lifetime of rejection got me scared to move in new directions
And most artists wouldn't dream of telling you that, but me? I'ma go and keep it real with these true confessions, like look
Little whiteboy from a dark city
Lungs tight and my heart shifty
My soul dead and I'm hard and gritty
But everything will be cool, just don't start with me
'Cause twelve years of chasing down this rap, getting laid out flat got me about to snap
I toll through the trap and they all give me dap and they say they my people, but when I fall, where they at
Do you know what it's like to give your life for the one thing that keeps you up tonight
Knowing that it might be only way in sight
To make your family take flight and finally get to see the light so

Let's go, my time
Eyes low, staring out at that skyline
Steep road, I climb
Eyes low, staring out at that skyline

And now I shine because my pride make my grind so highline
You never seen no one else do it so divine in my time
Ambition to strong, no way I could hide mine
Eyes low, staring out at that skyline

Staring out at that skyline
Staring out at that skyline
My pride, my grind
My time, said it's my time
Look in my eyes
My grind, I said it's my time
Eyes low, staring out at that skyline
