Hey, you know what I think should be at the beginning?
You know that podcast I was put on with Chris Williamson? (This is the rap game)
You're gonna get to a place where you're doing well
And people wanna know if it's true or not
Did you-, have you really transcended the bottom?
Is that really possible?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know (yeah, yeah, power)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know (yeah, yeah, yeah, power)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know (make it maintain, and then when we get older)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know (yeah, yeah, power)
Look, I've been getting money from the playground
They think I'm corporate, that's a myth, I'm from a bait town
I'm from where you will have to get down or lay down
I really spun a block where you can get dropped on the way 'round
I sold weed, heroin, I sold cocaine
Burying my valuables like I was in the Stone Age
24, I clocked a mill', 25, I flipped it still
I nearly flipped the RS3, I think I need a roll cage
Student of the roads, I had no grades
Studied a gangster from the '90s, heard he clocked a full gate
They valued him at 20 mill', and that was back in those days
And then he got acquitted and vanished after the court case
See, I'm from where the movies get made
It's an estate, they replicate the real thing with sorrow and the heartache
Envy can get real dark, jealousy will irritate the weak
And that's until the day it elevates their heart rate
And that's when you see snakes in the grass, I'm talking cobras and pythons
And if you get bit, you can't let bygones be bygones
You run up on the crib, and more time you gotta spit
And then you cave in the door, it doesn't matter that the light's on
Like, I remember fifty thousand on my calculator
I remember thinking I'll invest so I don't need the major
They want us in the system, but see me, I'm an escaper
They were pointing to the stairs, but I took the elevator
Deep it, I've been paying wages since I was like 18
I'm an independent, but I'm paid like I'm mainstream
Every day I'm building strength like I scoop a creatine
I guess I really live my dream
It's kinda deep and I'm not like these other rappers, with all due respect
They're married to the game, they do their honeymoon as newlyweds
And, yeah, she'll cook the food, she'll do the cleaning if the crib's a mess
But the game ain't loyal, she'll divorce you and take half of your heart from your chest
Chew you up, spit you out, divorces are expensive
When Kanye shouted "Jesus walks," I really thought he meant it
Shots fired, I was spitting bullets out like 50 Cent did
Rap battles and everything, I think I'm Eminem
My palms are sweating, knees weak, arms are heavy
I vomit on the instrumental as they throw confetti
My entrance into the game was like the start of Belly
Always causing a dilemma like I danced with Kelly
And I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, part of me thinks I'm the G.O.A.T
Part of me remembers what it is to have holes in your boat
How did I keep it afloat? I just refused to be broke
Beats get strangled with the pain you can hear in my throat
You have to sit with the thoughts I provoke (yeah)
It's the industry's mirrors and smoke (yeah)
Ownership is power, will they hear me though? (What?)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Yeah, yeah, power
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know (yeah, yeah, yeah, power)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know (yeah, yeah, power)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know (yeah, yeah, yeah, power), huh
(Yeah), yeah, yeah, power
Yeah, yeah, yeah, power
Yeah, yeah, power (power)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, power
