Rookie

I ain't perfect i got perfect intentions
I'm always showing up like i got perfect attendance
Need first place, can't do the honorable mention
I'm still new in the game like a rookie should i mention
Every time i'm in the booth i always come with a mission
But ain't nothing impossible like a under water tunnel vision
I'm investing my time so i can fund up a pension
Success ain't here yet so i'ma need an extension
I'ma grind hard and shine hard i gotta get it
It's like a never ending track i won't ever finish
I'ma be barring when i'm sixty like i'm Rosa spitting
Probably sitting in the park with my grandchildren
I can't help it, rapping is the only way
It's on my mind morning noon night each and everyday
Took me awhile to get this going use to hesitate
But now i know this was for me so i can't contemplate

I'm trying stretch this money like a tripod
Only time i look down is in a high rise
I'm trying find who I am like it's i spy
So I'm connecting to this music like it's wifi
I got goals, i'm trying to score like it's fifa
I fell in love she cheated so i'm guessing i ain't need her
I guess she learned her lesson couldn't stay i had to leave her
What goes around comes back i'ma let karma teach her
Karma did me dirty i ain't playing no more
Had to clean up my act like a Sunday chore
But i'm on my grind now had to change my ways
Gave my life to the lord give him all my praise
I was calling on the lord but the line was busy
Too many times the door hit me where the lord split me
He gave me sixty nine tries plus another fifty
Getting rich or die trying feeling like i got the power in me
I been busy working now so i can play later
I'm trying to steal lost time call me a perpetrator
I gotta do it God's way he's no negotiator
This just the story of my life and he's the narrator
