Seventeen
It seems the further that I go
The more the pressure takes from me
It's all I have and all I know, and so I can't complain you see
I think I love it, I want it, all the stress that's over me
It's where I thrive, it's where I live, and it's most likely where I'll die
Yeah, long time coming, been going harder no rubber
I'm out here chasing a dream before a nigga kick the bucket, I'm in it
For the day that I can look at you and say, that I made it and I made the demons in the boy behave
I been stacking money, no that shit won't make me happy
That'll only happen, when I make it back from rapping, I promise
Won't let it change me but the old me is a kid who wouldn't ever say that line
Can we get a rewind?
When I was seventeen, I told myself that I would get it
Wasn't even thinking 'bout the money or the skill
I was busy thinking bout the passion I instilled, then I grew a little older, little bolder on the real
Then I went and copped a studio, the longest shifts for real
But I knew it would be worth it, got some beats that I can kill
Feeling clever with the words, too many struggles not to tell
My little personal heaven, the therapy for my hell, oh man
That music shit is all I'm really good for
Still so do or die, so when I fail it's like a suicide
It's metaphoric, but don't ignore I'm keeping score
These other niggas wanna flex, I need a little more
Shallow niggas with hollow motives, that's every rapper
Here at least, so don't ever touch me, don't ever dap me
Covid is nothing when comparing to these snakes
I keep a forty ounce of Pure, I'll give you L's, that's what it takes ouu
So turn me up when I'm rhyming, I'm in my element dawg
The Pisces nigga with a gem in I, I'm too alive
The winter's coming, I'm melting the expectations, and taking all of my credits
'Till my bank account can really thrive
I don't believe in manifesting all that crazy shit, yeah
I'm just tryna worry where the crew 'gon sit
See I had lost all my religion when philosophy hit
And so my feet is never planted, I'm never calling on Him
Nah, it's the man in the mirror that make it all the more clearer
That's the same motherfucker that I consider my hero
Cause he was here when I had struggled and that's the realest shit ever
And no my money isn't right, but there ain't shit you can tell him
Nigga I'm gone
It seems the further that I go
The more the pressure takes from me
It's all I have and all I know, and so I can't complain you see
I think I love it, I want it, all the stress that's over me
It's where I thrive, it's where I live, and it's most likely where I'll die
The more the pressure takes from me
It's all I have and all I know, and so I can't complain you see
I think I love it, I want it, all the stress that's over me
It's where I thrive, it's where I live, and it's most likely where I'll die
