Home Base

Might have expected I'd
Just give up this dream and let it die
But I kept my mind running
Excessive mental exercise
The way I grind they be respecting the hustle
Cuz when I lay a rhyme you could say I'm
Flexing my muscles
I'm from the Twin Cities
So you can rinse repeat
Coming in threes, make it rain
Like I'm Pistol Pete
When he stops and pops
And drains a shot from sixty feet
Then they admit defeat
They be like, shit retreat!
I didn't roam I stayed posted
In Minnesota
To get my diploma
When you're in the zone
No need to switch the flow up
I'm just riding this wave
And doing it my way
They look to the skies and they pray
I keep my eyes straight
Ahead I'm looking
Only reason to look backwards
Is to check my footprints
This path I've traveled
It is hazardous, hectic and crooked
Too many times I've learned my lesson
When I stepped where I shouldn't but I'm

Feeling great I'm in my zone, in my own space
Been around the way but there ain't no place like home base
There ain't no place like home base
There ain't no place like home base
Feeling great I'm in my zone, in my own space
Been around the way but there ain't no place like home base
There ain't no place like home base
There ain't no place like home base

This is a marathon and not a sprint
If you truly want to win
Then stop running in the wind
In a rush to reinvent
That which makes you different
Trying to fix what ain't broken
I ain't saying change is bad
But this is full transformation
Me myself I've tinkered with quitting
But keep on coming back to this
Cuz something's lingering within
So many things that I've written
But still don't think that I'm getting
Anywhere close to the peaks I'll be hitting
When I see through this vision
Building a masterpiece
When these lyrics clash with beats
It's a catastrophe, these raps improving rapidly
Self-promoting unabashedly
Buckle in and strap ya seatbelts
This is my test run you're my crash dummies

Feeling great I'm in my zone, in my own space
Been around the way but there ain't no place like home base
There ain't no place like home base
There ain't no place like home base
Feeling great I'm in my zone, in my own space
Been around the way but there ain't no place like home base
There ain't no place like home base
There ain't no place like home base
