And I ain't distracted by groupies and cars

Get in the booth, doing my part

Spitting the truth and poof I'm gone
Boasting about the impact of truthful lyrics and disappearing from the scene.
I know I got ways to go

Still don't know which way to go

Spend a lot of time these days alone and no friends these days I stay at home

Equipped with nothing but a mic and a Mac and a pen and a pad

Every day in the lab better witness
Highlighting the dedication to daily creative work in the studio.
Tracks get laid with a rap then I send it off to half for the mix
Describing the production process and collaboration with a mixer.
Done, love it, rinse repeat new beat, run it
Expressing satisfaction with the creative process and the desire to continue.
All I gotta do is just keep going
Commitment to perseverance and continuous creative output.
Brand new beat I keep flowing
Continuing the flow and rhythm in the creation of new music.
We going up, 4 of clubs on me my team loyal
Celebrating success and loyalty of the team, referencing playing cards.
We soaring, Destroying

Hoping this is gon' last never hold back 'till I go back in an old Astin
Expressing determination to keep moving forward until achieving significant success.
A whole castle with gold plaques in a big frame
Visualizing future success with a castle adorned with gold plaques.
Next to my name that's when I'll stop
Setting a condition for stopping—receiving recognition and accolades.
Pages upon pages of these verses I been working is it worth it
Reflecting on the effort put into creating verses and questioning its worth.
Well one thing is for certain, I gave all that I got
Acknowledging a dedicated effort and commitment to the craft.
