Lyrics
Look I ain't got the crown, but I've been eyen' it
Expressing desire for recognition or achievement, despite not currently having it.
Hardest verse this year bitch I'm writing it
Asserting the quality and intensity of the verse being written.
And everything I hold will surely turn to gold
Confidence in the potential of personal possessions or creations turning into something valuable.
I got the Midas grip, and if yo shit is hot I inspired it
Claiming influence over others' work if it's impressive.
Really I'm enlightening, cause every word I say they be recitin' it
Belief in the enlightening impact of his words, with others repeating them.
Just when you quote my shit, make sure you hyphen it
Requesting credit for quoted lines.
Spell my name out, let them know that that bar ain't come from you
Insisting on proper attribution for bars taken from his work.
Cause I don't want my story coming from a lame mouth fuck how it came out
Concern about his story being misrepresented by others.
Was young and dumb, runnin' wild and reckless
Reflection on a reckless past.
It's a fuckin' blessin' ain't laying down, underground and breathless
Feeling fortunate to be alive and not buried.
For heaven's sake I think I had a death wish
Suspecting having sought danger or risked life previously.
I was raising hell and learned to value L's because they came with lessons
Learning from mistakes and valuing losses as lessons.
A good revolver help you dodge detectives
Suggesting the advantage of having a weapon to evade trouble.
We gone keep them shells if the beef intel's we take some drastic measures
Willingness to take drastic actions in threatening situations.
I got some stories I just ain't professN'
Keeping certain stories undisclosed.
Cause what I hear from Melly case is they gone use that shit as your confession
Fear of personal stories being used against him.
That best rapper shit I disregard
Disregarding claims of being the best rapper.
Cause all the ones I hear say it see me out and say my shit is hard
Receiving recognition from other established rappers for his skills.
I hit the booth and rip that shit apart
Confidence in dismantling competition when performing in the recording booth.
And that's ironic cause I'm putting shit together when I spit these bars
Contrasting the act of creating with disassembling when crafting lyrics.
These niggas know me for my written's well
Recognition for his written work.
My shit is swell, and I ain't dancing for my fans this ain't chip and dale
Refusing to compromise integrity for popularity.
I do my shit and I did it well,
Confidence in his own abilities and achievements.
So all my ticket sales come spittin' tells, from a living hell
Financial success rooted in difficult experiences.
Yo biggest fail could be a win as well
Highlighting the potential for turning failures into successes.
It's a gem in everything to a look it's just hidden well
Finding value in challenges, even if not immediately evident.
Some niggas frail till they sit in jail
Observing the transformation of individuals in challenging circumstances.
Meet some thorough niggas
Encountering people who exemplify strength and integrity.
Then become a man within that prison cell
Personal growth within difficult situations.
We all go though a hard ship
Recognizing shared experiences of hardship.
So all that shit I learned in life is what I choose to fill my bars with
Choosing to reflect personal experiences in lyrical content.
I tired of hearin' niggas nonsense
Discontent with superficial or meaningless lyrics in others' music.
So I do my part and re-enforce the art with the content
Commitment to preserving and reinforcing the authenticity of art through meaningful content.
