Balboa
Rising Above: ItsYaBoyCarr's Balboa Unveils a Journey of Triumph
Lyrics
Been at the top, I won't ever lose,
Expresses confidence and determination to maintain success.
No compromise won't pick and chose,
Refuses to compromise and is selective in decision-making.
Been at the bottom for too long,
Acknowledges a past struggle or challenge.
New fit new kicks new different shoes
Embraces change with new clothing and attitude.
Catch em all call em Pikachus,
Wordplay on Pokémon, suggesting capturing success.
Came out the bottom no peek a boo,
Emphasizes emerging from a difficult situation.
This rap shit is just child's play,
Describes the rap industry as simple or easy.
They play pretend while I'm making moves,
Contrasts genuine progress with others pretending.
Built the studio in one year now they calling me that chosen few,
Highlights quick success in building a studio.
Spell it out to make things clear,
Stresses the importance of clear communication.
Love being me would hate being you,
Expresses self-contentment and individuality.
Only one thing that I fear, after flights that I flew,
Fears being confined to a familiar, limiting environment.
Being stuck in that same hood claiming you the goat too,
Cautions against false claims of greatness.
Me? Bitch I'm Goku, underdog look like Krillen,
Compares oneself to powerful characters (Goku and Krillen).
Stop using all that gun talk, aint shit that you been killing,
Discourages using violent language without substance.
I keep it real cause I'm broke, but it look like I make millions,
Emphasizes authenticity despite financial status.
I'm leaving it to these veterans you pussy you civilian
Leaving matters to experienced individuals, distancing from conflict.
Why they fucking with the youngest in the game like,
Questioning why others are targeting the artist in the industry.
How they fucking with the youngest in the game right,
-Taking credit for the youngest in the game might,
-Why they fucking with the youngest in the game like,
-Why they fucking with the youngest in the game like,
-How they fucking with the youngest in the game right,
-Taking credit for the youngest in the game might,
-Why they fucking with the youngest in the game like,
Reiteration of questioning others' motives in the industry.
Imitation be flattery, until that shit gets annoying,
Initially flattered by imitation but expresses annoyance.
Fake labels and big talk ain't nobody you employing,
Criticizes fake labels, boasts, and followers.
Fake fans that don't flock, followers you decoying,
-Algorithms and funny math, watch how I destroy em,
-Working laps round these old heads claiming all these boss moves,
Contrasts with older generations, emphasizing self-reliance.
Like white dudes that rock dreads, somebody finna cross you,
-You choose silver or get lead, aint worried bout your loss foo,
-You get broke, or get bread, can't give em all the sauce too,
-Don't know what I gotta do to teach em,
Expresses frustration with fake individuals and cleanses them metaphorically.
Feel like errybody tried we ain't reach em,
-Fake flexers all actors like some leeches,
-Flush em out Mr. Clean I had to bleach em,
-Cannot fake the talent, so they faking all them rings and chains,
Comments on fake appearances and lack of authenticity in the industry.
Cannot keep it balanced, underneath its green and yellow stains,
-I tend to like a challenge, but y'all all sound the same,
-I'm sipping from my chalice, y'all chugging from my drain,
-Why they fucking with the youngest in the game like,
Reiteration of questioning why others are targeting the artist in the industry.
How they fucking with the youngest in the game right,
-Taking credit for the youngest in the game might,
-Why they fucking with the youngest in the game like,
-Why they fucking with the youngest in the game like,
-How they fucking with the youngest in the game right,
-Taking credit for the youngest in the game might,
-Why they fucking with the youngest in the game like,
Final questioning of the industry's treatment towards the artist.
