I’m sick of the bread crumbs
I’m sick of the paystub
Just giving me loose change
Sick of being fed up
My Corolla on the brink
If it breaks down me and mom will sink
Being that both of us use it
But lately I been feeling useless
I been going hard going ruthless
Still haven’t blown up from the music
Only see minimal movement
Now I’m in the booth feeling stupid
By booth I mean in the kitchen
Can’t quiet the noise, it slips in
Not talking bout the neighbor’s dogs
Talking bout negative thoughts intrinsic
But I can’t back away
Can’t back away
Even though it’s hard, I gotta map the way
I’m just sick of the lack of the accolades
If I rapped about stress, I would rap for days
I been working, my pants fat with change
Wish I knew cheat codes, I would hack the game
Finally blow slip through the cracks of fame
Big arenas, have people chant my name
F*ck traffic, fly in a private jet
No more working in the nine to five again
No more scraping pennies just to buy the bread
I’d rather be rich with the side effects
Than watching mom post-work hiding stress
So for now I’m gonna have to grind to win
Just try to survive while I climb the trench
Until I come home to mom and tell her
I did it
Finally, yes, I did it
And it almost felt like was quitting
Thank God that I didn’t run away from the tribulations
Cause of that now we can start living
Hard to fathom
We winning
Digits we lost the track we just spending
Imma get all my friends and family out of the rut and buy us a one way ticket
I ain’t goin back
I ain’t goin back
I ain’t goin back
I ain’t goin back
I ain’t goin back
I ain’t goin back
I ain’t goin back
It’s not easy, I recognize
But I can’t take my dreams leave them to die
In fighting through trials I specialize
Phenomenal minds I emphasize
But sometimes it’s hard tryin’a steady mine
When no one believes in my enterprise
My confidence becomes vandalized
My self-relied is jeopardized
Know it’s all part of the process
Til profits from the bars hit the hollow of pockets
Fill the gap like the drop in a mosh pit
A progress from blahs to the palace
Thought I’d be a millionaire by the time I was 21
But I’m sitting here with my pockets only filled with 20 ones
College tuition too expensive
I couldn’t pay attention
Made my decision
So I jumped off the cliff
With no parachute, I’m still plummeting
Focusing to spread off my wings and
Fly away, just fly away
But the pressure against me is dominant
Look up to God and I’m calling him
I keep saying that this is my destiny
What if fame is something I’ll never reach?
What if this is the greatest I’ll ever be?
What if I’m grinding til the death of me
To only become local celebrity
In his ghetto studio with the penury
Global fame only a fantasy
The thought of that is sending me
Mind on suicidal shit, not with the wrist slit
But if I quit I won’t accomplish it
It’s hard not to be so pessimistic
When my environment settling in
Keep my circle small, the rest indifferent
We all rise or just hit the pavement
And if I try and don’t amount to nothing
At least I can say I went the distance
Nah, but I can’t conform
That’s the mental space that makes ‘em fold
Do it for the fam, do it for the bros
Do it for the stunt, do it for the dough
Do it for the homies that died poor
Do it for the haters to prove ‘em wrong
Do it ‘cause I know I can reach my goal
No plan B, no other option
CAGE 86 is all I’m plotting
I didn’t rise up from the depths of darkness
To stay in this abyss where all them off in
Motivation, strut through the motions
Paying homage
To those who bossing
Imma give it every single breath in my lungs
Until I can come home to mom and tell her
I did it
Finally, yes, I did it
And it almost felt like was quitting
Thank God that I didn’t run away from the tribulations
Cause of that now we can start living
Hard to fathom
We winning
Digits we lost the track we just spending
Imma get all my friends and family out of the rut and buy us a one way ticket
