LYRICS

Somebody told me I could never make it here
And that somebody shoulda told me 'fore I took my Leap
I told them it's the only way to shake my fear
And if that somebody's a nobody they shouldn't speak
Cuz I dont share my vision with them
'Less they got some wisdom in them
Im not here to kick it with them
Most these rappers post up like they pistol gripping Posing taking pics
But they would fold up when my fist would hit them
Been losing my control again and this admittance
Shows the type of growth they wish I showed when I was gifted to them
I could easily explode , just give in to them
Proves how far I've come in terms of actually admitting to them
Cuz these demons are real
My realitys more challenging than eating these pills
But who the fuck am I to try decide the day that I'm killed
And plus I'm never one to do things I say that I will
Its mad
But I dont care about a single thing
Drowning in my sorrows and much rather would I sink than swim
Fuck about a legacy got nothing they could keep of him
But see a Man United badge n fuck it they gon think of him
Him , Him
See its happening
Talking in 3rd person like those dreams that I have had again
Before I would get all upset and plead to be put back again
But now I feel those feelings and I'm pleased they're flooding back again
Cuz I dont know no difference in it
Had a little happiness and started acting different with it
Got the fuck up out of there
One morning I just switched n did it
They said I'm crazy but I guess thats why I'm different aint it
And I dont care to change again
Get back on that conveyor belt or locked down in that cage again
See I just need the freedom to be me
Aint no secret or no keys
It just happens when I Raise my Pen
Look
I let the music take control of me
Mould to me
Really let the mood just take a hold of me
Be pacing back n forth I let each thought pour from my soul with ease
And only breathe the moment that the moment's letting go of me
Until then I perform it for the demons that are goading me
Channeling the pain that they bestowed to me
Show em that I'm suffering enough without em choking me
And hopefully
They fuck off for the night so I can go to sleep
Woah thats deep
Look
Forever out on a ledge
I been told I'm too old and I'm out of my head
I've been low
So low that they tracking my depth
Up in the hope they recover any tracks that I left
Its real
Now add up all the facts that I've said
And thats the number that will factor your death
I've made a pact to eject
These little factions with their fashions and trends
Can't manufacture what a rapper of my stature presents
Thats real
Look
Thats why I had to keep my distance aint it
Everybody rapping and I fail to see the difference in it
Everybody seem the same
I came to paint a different image
Hope you see the difference in it
Look
And so I've jumped back in the game again
Shrugged off any way I felt bout letting out my pain again
Im bout to feel the freedom that I need
This the reason why I breathe
Watch what happens when I raise my pen
