Yeah, uh Okay, I'm so beyond it From Mill Basin to Coney Island I'm south Brooklyn's finest, I did a lot But I still gotta top it I guess you cursed with that When you got a habit to polish So I be in the lab workin' like Dexter and Dee Dee 'Cause you only as good as the last records you dropping I got it yo, I can't break my promise You dudes be out of pocket So you don't get the time of day or no cash from my wallet Work on your craft 'fore you comment I was in the basement with Trevor and Chronic Rappin' under blankets and smokin' some chronic Lower the music because his mom sleepin' But the loud got us here, how fuckin' ironic They called me dumb and obnoxious Now I'm young and iconic Joel Embiid, gotta trust in the process Went from underage drinking Hpnotiq Dreaming 'bout makin' profit Lost some soldiers who was vital to the progress I know they pullin' some strings from above me So I can't let them down yo, I promise I'm done being modest I'm getting everything and more 'til I'm rotted Just a product of the people who believed in the kid I owe it all to ya (I owe it all to ya), yeah I'll be the vessel for ya (I'll be the vessel for ya), uh Yeah, I know this game is both a gift and a curse But things could be worse, things could be worse Things could be worse (yeah) Riding through the rhythms of a gift and a curse Feeling Heaven-sent watch me lift up the earth Let my words, fall off my tongue Got an angel up above says, "Go off and run" Fill my glass, take a lap (Fly) And woke up the sun, I'm the one I'm from where they buckshots And all the Jamaicans scream, "Bloodclaat" I was one block away when they shot up the bus stop Ain't see one cop, the hood was so hot and in such shock Keep a gun cocked or you gonna end up the one popped Seventeen, I was stepping over empty shell cases Crime scene, yellow tape, I've seen plenty pale faces We stay heated, but we always wondered where this Hell place is Might come off as lil harsh might as well face it This still ain't easy to grasp Connecting with your friends or fam, a thing of the past Call and check up someone, it's a struggle just to do that Just because they just seen you post what you doing on to an app I think that that shit is whack, uh (uh) My work will speak for it self, I'm done talking I'll get so off radar they gon' be the ones stalking All I ever heard was dog barking and gun sparking But in 2021 I'll be seeing my son walking The person I'm becoming better than the one I was Lost some friends over the years, gave up tryna be a thug Some ain't dead they still alive, some of them deserve a slug We all got naysayers, you could tell 'em join the club I did it all for you (I did it all for you) And you did nothing for me (and you did nothing for me, Fly) I know this game could be a gift and a curse But things could be worse, things could be, things could be Things could be worse (yeah) Riding through the rhythms of a gift and a curse Feeling Heaven-sent watch me lift up the earth Let my words, fall off my tongue Got an angel up above says, "Go off and run" Fill my glass, take a lap And woke up the sun, I'm the one oh, and woke up the sun, I'm the one woke up the sun I am the one
