Thank You

Time moves fast, will all this attention last?
Can I make it grow? I don't know
Give it my best, try to come up with something fresh
I needa take a second, make a new plan
Organize my thoughts and actions, God Damn!
Accomplished ALL I set out to do
Goals met, bet you wish it was you
Overnight relevance, wish it was like this for all my intents
Broke the bank, almost ended up in a tent
Now watch my assets grow stronger while in the studio I ponder

Now I don't want to go back
But I look, and I reminisce
But I missed, those that had my back
Lotta people to thank for where I'm at

But I know my success, my desert?
Was built on the backs of those that came first
I follow leaders like Dre, Cole, Logic, and Mac
Nothing without inspiration, thems facts
I'm new but retro like in the 20's sending a fax
Plenty a times heard my shit was whack
But recently got a big old pat on the back
It feels good to be recognized for my craft
Worked hard, put in a lotta love
A gift for my community while we can't hug

Now I don't want to go back
But I look, and I reminisce
But I missed, those that had my back
Lotta people to thank for where I'm at

Hitting the pavement, pulling out the stops
Never wear a watch
Wanna know what's next? Watch it drop
Lately I'm hot, but I know the rules
Jump in the pool so I can cool
One minute on top, next I'm not
Gonna pay it forward, I will not be forgot

Now I don't want to go back
But I look, and I reminisce
But I missed, those that had my back
Lotta people to thank for where I'm at

Looking back, I had support
The social currency, but I wasn't keeping score
Kept making withdrawals without checking the balance (Thank you!)
Hit chu on the phone but now all I hear is silence
Kept trying, never lying, unless I did not know
Sometimes y'all learn about me what I could not show
Dreamed big, saw past the horizon
Looked in, removed a few disguises
So this is what it's like to be an adult
Follow yo dreams, see what it's about

Now I don't want to go back
But I look, and I reminisce
But I missed, those that had my back
Lotta people to thank for where I'm at
