The Scenic Route

Took the Scenic Route I seen the bigger picture
Living desperate so I gotta get it quicker
Never eating got that syrup in the kitchen
On my own nah nobody ever pitched in

Took the Scenic Route I seen the bigger picture
Living desperate so I gotta get it quicker
Never eating got that syrup in the kitchen
On my own nah nobody ever pitched in

I know I'm made for this
I'm tryna find my place in this
Underestimated daily how do I escape from this?
Take a sip
Feel the power that shit brings to me
Load the weapon up bear witness my artillery
I'm always ready for a war like every single day
Test my patience yea I dare you try to take my plate
Cut your hand fuck you all who standing in my way
Cuz when I'm gone which one of y'all make sure my daughter straight?
Ain't a nigga alive that know the shit I faced
Cuz through it all never lifted up my poker face
Balls to the wall always grinding that's the only way
I know I never got the time what you want me to say?
I'm on a mission I can't stop now
I gotta give it all I got now
Want me to go in half & half now
I'm never stopping rather crash now
Never stopping rather crash now

Took the Scenic Route I seen the bigger picture
Living desperate so I gotta get it quicker
Never eating got that syrup in the kitchen
On my own nah nobody ever pitched in

Took the Scenic Route I seen the bigger picture
Living desperate so I gotta get it quicker
Never eating got that syrup in the kitchen
On my own nah nobody ever pitched in

I made a promise to myself that I'll never break
Don't even matter what I lose or how long it takes
I really feel like I'm the one so why would I stray?
It ain't gone happen overnight but I'll find a way
I'm tryna bite & claw
I cannot fall
I try so hard
I know there's niggas watching plotting
Tryna find my flaws
How much I floss?
And what I got
Wanna know it all
So if I slip up
They there to pick up
These niggas fucked up
They tryna luck up
But I'll never fail
Yea a nigga got that iron will
To all my niggas
Shit ain't over till you hear that bell
My hunger never quitting, never filled
But y'all niggas like a buffet line
I'm waiting looking at my meal
I'm eating niggas like an appetizer for the deal
My back pressed on the wall I'm desperate, minds a ticking wheel
Don't be the nigga in my way cuz I will not fail

So what's the scenic route?
The scenic route is taking the time to do it right
Observing & analyzing
Waiting
And knowing
When you get to where you going
It'll all be worth it
