Why
Why can't it be me
Welcome to the introduction of my name
Cementing it in my lane so it could live on
The Rhyme Minister giving game that you could pass on
Making music people wanna hear for eons
Keep they heads ringing till the night gone
And once the morning come I know they won't be gone for too long
Before they start to get the itch
Soon'll need another fix
Of lyrical stories
My songs are like the lyrical Maury
Why can't it be me
See the ignorance stand amongst the intelligence within these lyrical glories
Growing up I was feasting ravioli
Hot dogs and macaroni
Did mama know she was raising a king
Who would embark on a journey of finer things
His mission simple
It was harder for her to see
Constantly I'm hoping for my time to erase
All the time that I waste
On all the things that I chase
So now I ask
Why can't it be me
Now the time That I take
Is more the time that it takes
To find my bigger purpose
Checking if raps my purpose
What my talent worth is
Or if my talent worth it
Questions I constantly ask myself
Now this music's defining me
The beginning or the end of me
Probably beginning of the end for me
But from the beginning we was ending see
Like when Martin had a dream
Killed em over politics
When he born to bring equality
Why can't it be me
My introduction to this mass destruction ima put you through
Like Michael Jordan in the Clutch of 92
Final seconds I'm coming down and I'm bound to shoot
My chance to show what I could do
With my back to my state as I stand as its face
I'm dealing my fate for how ever long it takes
Throw holy water in death face
And be what I was born to be
The best that I could ever be
Seeking whatever's meant for me
Got me asking
Why can't it be me
