Dad’s leg broke Then the recession hit Months later we was sleeping at the church again Wanted to be the hero I picked up the sticks 2009 drum off, I had to win I was 16, in the Sistine I would skip sleep On the fantom, I’d invent beats Next day, I’d be focused on my kick speed Dad said to be the best You had to live, breath Eat, sleep The throne that you wanted You cannot have a feast Unless you’ve been searching and hunting I had my family on my back And I knew if I won it Our lives would change forever So nothing came before drumming First round, routine was astonishing One judge met me ‘bout a scholarship They gave us monster energy, so we all was lit Focused on my prize, had my heart in this Round two’s when my heart broke I was flawless, I did not choke Treated the drums like it was hostel The competition inferior to my god-stroke Confident I'm a beast behind the drums Dad left before they could decide who won My life stopped when they announced Michael won My dream died, I failed tryna save nine of us Sorry I just wanna save you I just wanna save you I just wanna save you With me you can lose I just wanna save you I just wanna save you I just wanna save you, yeah yeah I just wanna be I just wanna be, yeah yeah I just wanna be I just wanna be, yeah yeah Yeah Moral victory Moral victory You didn’t get the win, but you did to me Be satisfied losing ‘cause in the history Books we’ll remember the battle between him and me Nah I used to cry after losing in madden I hated every time that that would happen I’m not content failing while others advancing Why can’t I be succeeding on the top ecstatic It’s a problem if we do the most They’d rather have you Hidden with the curtains closed They don’t want you to reach your goals But settle for any medal that isn’t gold Rather you be the worker than the CEO God said take pride when they see me low I’ve been low, but now I’m rising in this season bro Don’t play yourself stop eating crumbs that reach the floor Stop eating crumbs that reach the floor
