Pivot

Came a long way but I've got more to go
Life has been crazy it's taken a toll
Live day to day yet I can't slow my roll
No piece of the pie, man I need me a whole
Doing 180's, I learned how to pivot
Regardless of views I stay pushing my limits
Don't pay any mind to those fooled by the digits
If you got beef, come and pay me a visit

Pocket the cue ball, I'm starting from scratch
Masking the smell, like the gas with a match
Keep the doors closed, or I'm popping the hatch
Out in the field, like I'm waiting to catch
Caught a ground ball, I ain't coming for the crown nah
Had to prove a point to some lames in my town, yall
suck this is how I get busy
Underhand like softball, they just seem to drown all
Suck you in to set you up, start plotting on your downfall
Something really wrong with the city
I been busting ass since before I turned sixteen
Bro and I both ate, that's another sixteen
If you need a hearse, I can fit that shit in sixteen
As I take off, dropping gears in the six speed
Oh please, Ill be at their throat until that shit bleed
Aw geez, better come correct if you approach me

Came a long way but I've got more to go
Life has been crazy it's taken a toll
Live day to day yet I can't slow my roll
No piece of the pie, man I need me a whole
Doing 180's, I learned how to pivot
Regardless of views I stay pushing my limits
Don't pay any mind to those fooled by the digits
If you got beef, come and pay me a visit

It seems, y'all just be paying for streams
Schemes, you should be stacking not spending the cream
Sheesh, dreams, making enough just to change up the scene
Fuck busting seams of my jeans
Just need enough that I don't have to wear the same pair for a week
Made it from that, and I'll never go back
If you pushing me there, then I'm slapping like jack
Come and I give it, no plan of attack
Y'all after white, like you brushing for plaque
Maybe I'm after a platinum, maybe I'll hold em for ransom
Shit in my mind that I wish you could fathom
That's why I talk to myself it's not random
I'm smashing walls like my dick needed magnums
Metaphors sharp I could probably split atoms

Came a long way but I've got more to go
Life has been crazy it's taken a toll
Live day to day yet I can't slow my roll
No piece of the pie, man I need me a whole
Doing 180's, I learned how to pivot
Regardless of views I stay pushing my limits
Don't pay any mind to those fooled by the digits
If you got beef, come and pay me a visit

Another Saturday, always riding with the windows down
With my music blaring, people staring as I drive around
They pretend to brush it off, I've noticed that I'm breaking ground
Who got next to bat? I be curving from the pitchers mound
Throwing fast balls, they'll hit right inside the box
Convincing with my words, you would think I'm selling stocks
Never had a letterman, couldn't catch me with the jocks
Matter fact, I'm in the office getting reamed for picking locks
Bet you couldn't guess I was always in detention
Physically I'm there, but my head's a new dimension
I was just another teen that was battling depression
From my daddy passing early but nobody paid attention
Caught a couple charges while I dealt with my aggression
Music was my drug, pen and pad was my injection
Working on my craft, they were focused on impression
I was focused on my bars, like I didn't have reception

Came a long way but I've got more to go
Life has been crazy it's taken a toll
Live day to day yet I can't slow my roll
No piece of the pie, man I need me a whole
Doing 180's, I learned how to pivot
Regardless of views I stay pushing my limits
Don't pay any mind to those fooled by the digits
If you got beef, come and pay me a visit

They all know I'm wicked with it, I could be a bit descriptive
Paint a picture in my verse, you see it cause its realistic
I can be a bit sadistic, growing up I'm sick and twisted
Horrid mind inside my head, yet all the shit I've seen has gifted
Me a rocky flow, I'm Balboa with a hook
They sweet like rocky road, Patagonia kinda look
Matter fact, I know this one don't know how I was mistook
When they reading articles, acting like they wrote the book
Dicing vegetables, I can show you how to cook
I'm caught in obstacles, they're the best to overlook
Wanna lead em to the lake, but they scared to cross the brook
I prepare my arsenal, they already looking shook
Took control of destiny, made myself a set of keys
Thinking for myself, now I've got em all assessing me
Asking 'bout the recipe, questioning my tendencies
Thought they had it mapped out? Shouldn't they be telling me?
