I been- I been telling mad stories Is it cool if I tell a little bit of my story? I'm all nervous, but here's my rap God Parted clouds a baby came out with major style Momma pushed him out So helpless with heart that's filled with doubt Never fitting in Somehow he got used to sticking out Soar thumbs giving out From these things that he's written bout Opened up his mouth But nobody cared what he spitting bout He did bad in School So moms was giving them whippins out She knew he had drive But He was going a different route So that's when she kicked him out Had to live in different house Pops was a rapper So he imagined that he could vouch For that life style Where music he couldn't live without Double right click fruity loops Produce with broken mouse Recorded a rap over that But guess what is spoken bout Money money money Gun bars and getting women Had the lyrics and the rhythm Yet and still he had no vision Father said "produce, son, spitting just ain't where ya gift is" So He challenged and him a big brother on a song Thought he ripped it, but he didn't Big brother clowned him and it made him hate himself Big brother stopped laughing and told him "Don't ever play yourself You can't make it rapping about ladies RPGs and wealth Leave that on the shelf Pick up this pad and just be yourself" I've been trying to make it clearer Who is that I see in the mirror Who can I be if it's not me Who can I be if it's not me God ain't put this soul in nobody else Only thing that's left to do is be yourself He Moved back had to switch states back to NJ Yeah he still rapped but he folded clothes to get pay Then he did the math on min wage like no way He can't obey a 9 to 5 if no rent paid So he was in school with a mixtape he would display But he got discouraged from hearsay when his friends hate He was slaving like Kunte kente but them say He wasn't never gone be nothing not even midway Famous, he just wanted to be appreciated So he walked up to somebody like "Homie I'm not the greatest But I got a lil tape for 5 dollars and I made it All the beats and all the lyrics engineered it so just play it" That guy put his hands out like he was ready to take it Smile faded from his face and Then he slapped the tape away and Said "Get that outta here, your music weak Get out my face Your a disgrace you Soundcloud rapper You're never going to be great" A couple days and a year later he had his first show Super nervous bout his verses could he murk it with the flow Brother called and asked "you ready" So he told him "I don't Know" He said "Samad, you a savage let them have it you a pro If you plan on going big and Want to travel all the Globe Then this show the first of many Show them what you got in store" A hundred something shows later Million streams and getting dough And that kid that dissed him asking for a feature on his phone I've been trying to make it clearer (See where being yourself gets you) Who is that I see in the mirror Who can I be if it's not me Who can I be if it's not me God ain't put this soul in nobody else Only thing that's left to do is be yourself I've been trying to make it clearer (Bully bully bully you can't ever pull me down) Who is that I see in the mirror (Sticks and stones may break my bones But words can never make me drown) Who can I be if it's not me (You throw objects at my head It just develops as a crown) Who can I be if it's not me (Call me names and gather round) God ain't put this soul in nobody else (I turned that into a crown) Only thing that's left to do is be yourself
