Lyrics

Thinking bout my life i got a lot on my plate

Reflecting on the challenges and responsibilities in life.

But if i quit now i can never be great

Emphasizing the importance of persevering for future success.

The flow is impaccable i will never fold

Proudly asserting resilience and determination.

I stoped fucking with dumb bitches that shit gets old

Choosing to distance from unproductive relationships.

Spending time with my niece i wanna see her grow

Expressing a desire to witness the growth of a loved one.

Leave a legacy i want her to improve her goals

Aspiring to leave a positive legacy for future generations.

Fuck a 9 to 5 be your own boss

Encouraging independence and entrepreneurship.

This social media shit man we're getting lost

Criticizing the negative impact of excessive social media use.

I wanna take it back to them old days

Nostalgic longing for simpler times.

Way before Miley Cyrus had that hoe phase

Referencing a past phase of a celebrity (Miley Cyrus) for context.

Back when Kanye West gave us through the wire

Recalling a pivotal moment in Kanye West's career.

Bathing Ape hit the scene i was so inspired

Finding inspiration in cultural and fashion trends.

Blood of a slave heart of a king

Identifying with a strong heritage and ambition.

Im watching training day on the tv screen

Mentioning a movie scene that resonates.

Got out of our comfort zone and they judged us

Facing judgment for stepping out of the comfort zone.

They laughed but switching sides that was never us

Remaining true to oneself despite external opinions.

Still on a mission to be free

Commitment to a personal mission for freedom.

Shoutout to Kapernick nigga take a knee

Respecting Colin Kaepernick's symbolic protest.

RIP Breanna Taylor George Floyd

Paying tribute to individuals who lost their lives unjustly.

Dear lord can you save us

Seeking divine intervention and guidance.


21 And we keep on going

Continuing the narrative of overcoming challenges as a collective.

We came from the dirt and it's showin

-

Hand to hand and we deal with the pressure

-

Keep fighting and we keep this shit together

-

21 And we keep on going

-

We came from the dirt and it's showin

-

Hand to hand and we deal with the pressure

-

Keep fighting and we keep this shit together

-

Far from a legend but put respect on it

Claiming recognition without claiming legendary status.

This is real rap never question it

Asserting authenticity and credibility in the genre.

Standard procedure i'm aiming at your chest

Describing a confrontational and determined attitude.

Fake niggas never understand the grind it takes

Highlighting the misunderstood grind of real individuals.

On my Trayvon Martin shit hoodie on

Referencing Trayvon Martin and drawing parallels.

Lonley nights get the bag that's the shit i'm on

Focusing on financial success during challenging times.

Taking risks only humble when we winning

Embracing risk-taking and humility in victory.

Roll the dice i said that from the beginning

Adopting a fearless approach from the outset.

Creating new doors for my people

Pioneering opportunities for one's community.

Be yourself at all times never equal

Encouraging individuality and uniqueness.

We toast to this life and what the future holds

Celebrating life and anticipating a positive future.

We never came up short and we never fold

Emphasizing resilience and steadfastness.

My pen is bleeding like a virgin sight

Metaphorically expressing dedication to artistic creation.

I keep penetrating till i see the light

-

My pen is bleeding like a virgin sight

-

I keep penetrating till i see the light

-

Yes

Simple acknowledgment or agreement.

I wanna give a big shoutout to my niece Nicole

Expressing love and recognition for a family member.

I love you
