First Day

I'm going back to the first day
I'm going back to the first day

Look mom, I made it. I told you one day I'll make
Regardless of all the nights that I stayed awake getting faded
My brain was only thing to my name and I couldn't waste it
A shame if I didn't claim all the fame and a couple paychecks
I blame, all my success on my predecessors that blessed me with time investing and Setting examples of how to be better than any rapper
who ever even uttered the letters of my name
And stay on top of the paper like headers
I'm clever, and people knew that but they never gave me respect
Or expected me to go this far, but it's whatever
If you really knew me, you would know that I'm a muthafucking pro at anything
I put my mind to, hopefully my rhymes will show that
Picture perfect; go 'head and get out your Kodak
But don't make me pull the Canon on you
I'm an animal dude
And I been like this ever since my first birthday
So let me take you back to how we got here in the first place

I'm going back to that first day
I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back
I'm going back to that first day
I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back
I'm going back to that first day
I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back
I'm going back to that first day

Once upon a time inside a hospital in Cleveland
Was an angel name Rosa who had given birth to a heathen
She named him after his father
They took him home to their daughters
Then one of them tried to drown him, thank goodness that Rosa caught her
Then later the kid got older, he looked at his mom told her
I know that I'm still your boy, but ya boy done became a soldier
Check the cadence and the flow, self-wrote, no ghost
Self-produce and self-promote. Yeah, your son's doin the most
She said to go and be best at whatever you put your mind to
Mind you, if you get lost and I can't find you
Try to, remember all the lessons that you learned
A penny saved, a penny a earned and play with fire, you'll get burned
But most importantly, if you should fortunately make a fortune
Don't forget the ones who got you there and treat them all accordingly
He nodded his noggin and told her he was ready
She said one day everybody's gonna know the name of Heady

I'm going back to that first day
I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back
I'm going back to that first day
I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back
I'm going back to that first day
I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back
I'm going back to that first day
I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going
