Lyrics
I don't know what they thought I was, with all I does
I am uncertain about how others perceived me, given my actions.
The average rapper with all my buzz
I am not an ordinary rapper despite my popularity.
Cuz I don't stack C-notes, ship & pack kilos
I don't engage in illegal activities involving large sums of money.
Put niggas underwater like they tryna track Nemo
I can defeat or overpower people, leaving them submerged like tracking Nemo underwater.
I don't have a dance for the songs that I put out
I don't create dance moves for my songs; my focus is on meaningful lyrics.
My poetry is pregnancy, I conceive it and push out
My lyrics are like a pregnancy; I conceive and express them.
Hopefully it grows into success, you cut checks
I hope my art grows into success, leading to financial rewards.
Put me on the screen, gimme green, then what's next?
Once I'm featured on screen and paid, what comes next?
Most niggas in my city envisioning much less
Many people in my city have limited dreams and aspirations.
City stars in the midst of living hard, plus stress
City residents, even those with star potential, face a challenging and stressful life.
Never had an icon in hip-hop
We lack positive role models in hip-hop.
We idolize trappers, not rappers, the Nationals that pitch rocks
We admire drug dealers, not musicians, specifically those dealing crack cocaine.
We looking for a better day
We are searching for a brighter future.
We on the wrong road, looking for a better way
We are currently on the wrong path, seeking a better route.
And once we get it then we gone
Once we achieve our goals, we won't stop; we will keep working until we succeed.
We ain't stopping, joe, we working, we gon' get it 'til we on
We are determined to achieve our objectives relentlessly.
Yeah, we gon' get it 'til we gone
We will persist until we reach our goals and won't be deterred.
We ain't stopping, joe, we working, we gon' get it til we on
We won't give up; our hard work will continue until we achieve success.
Cuz, we just looking for a better day
We are seeking a better day, a positive change in our lives.
We on the wrong road, looking for a better way
We are currently on the wrong path, looking for a more favorable direction.
Now the dream is my lifestyle
My dreams have become my way of life.
Buzz breakin' through, my name poppin' like Lifestyles
My reputation is spreading, gaining attention like the brand Lifestyles.
Same word twice, but a whole 'nother meaning
The repetition of a word may have different implications in different contexts.
Ironic that they both might lead to some cream, and I'm ready
The irony that both meanings may lead to financial success, and I am prepared for it.
I been spittin' since 9
I started rapping at a young age, since the age of nine.
Like "gimme some time and it's finna be mine"
I believed that given time, success in the rap industry would be mine.
They ain't believe it, God bless 'em, it's no grudges
I bear no ill will towards those who doubted me; I appreciate their skepticism.
How can I hate my success I made with no budget?
My success was achieved without a significant financial investment.
Got respect from legends like Low Budget
I have gained respect from influential figures like Low Budget.
Shared a few words with idols like Joe Budden
I have conversed with admired individuals like Joe Budden.
And tore down Rock The Bells with my brother
I had a successful performance at Rock The Bells with my sibling.
And I never sacrificed my heart, but I love it
I have not compromised my integrity for success, and I love what I do.
We looking for a better day
We are in search of a brighter future.
We on the wrong road, looking for a better way
We are currently on the wrong path, looking for a better route.
And once we get it then we gone
Once we achieve our goals, we won't stop; we will keep working until we succeed.
We ain't stopping, joe, we working, we gon' get it 'til we on
We are determined to achieve our objectives relentlessly.
Yeah, we gon' get it 'til we gone
We will persist until we reach our goals and won't be deterred.
We ain't stopping, joe, we working, we gon' get it til we on
We won't give up; our hard work will continue until we achieve success.
Cuz, we just looking for a better day
We are seeking a better day, a positive change in our lives.
We on the wrong road, looking for a better way
We are currently on the wrong path, looking for a more favorable direction.
