Way Back

Yeah... Sh. you know what? I ain't even gonna say the name no more
I done copped an Ego
I'm just kidding, that's the producer
Humble, they said

Yeah, fuck a hater
Finally found the antidote
Did you hear the EP, though?
I done copped an ADDitude
Work hard at everything I do
If you ain't riding fuck you
Work hard at everything I do
If you ain't' riding fuck you
Bout' to get it...

Take it way back, when a muhfucka wasn't worried bout' playback
When a muhfucka wasn't worried bout' no paycheck
Back when momma never put me on raincheck
Back when daddy accidentally broke the latex
I bet he didn't know he'd be giving me a chance at the apex of this rap shit
Whew, this that...

Flexicution, retribution
Inhale and let my mind loose and now this shit becoming reality
I guess I'm dreaming lucid
Never thought I'd do this much with music
Yeah, bitch, and that's what little I have done
Always moving forward, that's regardless of the outcome
Keeping the trust, gonna get mine
Shit I'm dropping got me feeling like Jordan, 97' prime

But at the same time, I'm so out my mind
This year, watched my problems multiply
Envy got me welling in the eyes
Offing rappers and I don't know why

I don't mean to belittle but must of you lames sounding pitiful
Dropping same shit every year like it's ritual
Keep popping pillies' your effort is minimal
We resurrecting the real shit when we reach the pinnacle
Fake lives, most of ya' favorites are fictional
Open ya' eyes, they a bunch of Casper's
Their girl ghost, son ghost, writer ghost, what a hoax
This is the credibility of the people that ya'll calling GOAT's?
If that's the case, don't want to be there with them
I'd rather be the wolf feeding on them

Take it way back, when a muhfucka wasn't worried bout' playback
When a muhfucka wasn't worried bout' no paycheck
Back when momma never put me on raincheck
Back when daddy accidentally broke the latex
I bet he didn't know he'd be giving me a chance at the apex of this rap shit

Now I'm just tired of sitting down here humble and hungry while all these assholes Fucking eating above me
Shit could get ugly, no more time to wait
25 years I let my confidence hibernate, now nobody safe
I can't quit licking my plate
Treat me like I'm divine
Got em' kneeling like Colin, Capt
Dropped out, said "fuck it, I don't want the gown or the cap"
I'd rather make my own path

Anything but stay inside the box
Anything but being what I'm not
Anything but let em' call the shots

Yeah, I'm so diverse they can't guess what I'm dropping next
Blow Indica in your face if you're not impressed
Being lost in these thoughts got me too damn stressed

Now, all I wanna do is take it way back, when a muhfucka wasn't worried bout' playback
When a muhfucka wasn't worried bout' no paycheck
Back when momma never put me on raincheck
Back when daddy accidentally broke the latex
I bet he didn't know he'd be giving me a chance at the apex of this rap shit
