Watch Me (feat. Mxtive)

I don't wanna waste my time
They want respect but
Don't wanna give me mine
Its all about the lines that were
Written in the minds
For anyone to find
In retrospect
I think I've been too kind
Used to wait for
Solutions that wouldn't be painful
Don't know what I stayed for
But the right way
Is out of my safe zone
In year it'll all be fine
I'll have new issues with a whole new mind
In time I'll learn how to draw my lines
When it costs my dimes
And they quiet like mimes
I'ma blow up like a mine
Didn't see me too late
I'ma come from behind
I'm a menace
Nah that's too cliche
Guess I really don't know what to say, but hey

Its about time I get paid
Im in my lane
Im alone, but I like it that way
I won't play your games
I been workin from the late nights till daybreak
Taking day breaks
Knowing great hates
Good man, I'd rather have a bad day
Keep it average in that case
Run at my pace
Put you on skates
See you ride away
As I create my own wave

Went and created my own wave
Did it myself by my own way
I do not mess with you, so lame
Claim you the coach, but got no game
I sit in the studio crafting my work
No clue how I do it but happens to work
I'm grabbing a pad, put pen in my hand
And then I get back to writing these words
Flipping the script and I'm hitting the pinnacle
Put in the work i'm not doing the minimal
Stitching together these syllables
Then I am leaving the beat in condition that's critical, woo
I'm crazy, I'm slick, and I'm sick wit it
If you got something to say put a sock or stick in it
If you be blinking then you will be missing it
I'll get my wishes I promise it's imminent
I promise you that it's my destiny
Your name will never look best to me
Invested my time, invested my soul
Now I've got people invested in me
Now I have all these eyes looking at me
All of these kids yeah they look up to me
Rappers have started to look into me
Cuz I've got all these people with power who looking to me
They have been trying to cook up the formula
Trying to replicate my magic potion
They get too close then the potion's exploding
It's secret for reason want no one to know it
If you must know how it's working for me
Cut off emotion and get your soul broken
Discover your love for the music
But make sure that your heart is fully devoted

Aye, what you think about me is relative
Relatively, in rap, you're irrelevant
Don't care who you are or the way that your tellin it
Lie on to the mic either way I'ma settle it
Get outta the way
I'm a menace
Its a bit cheesy
But I make it sound venomous
Poisonous I'ma kill it I'ma slaughter
When I'm writing words I'm finding ways to make it hotter
When I make a beat I don't what to put on to it so I write and then I might record it
Holding up a trophy like I've been here before
Holding up a pen, like I'm writing with a sword
Might be round the fakes but I know I can't afford
People wanting benefits like
Hah, they'll be leaving me soon as I hit rock bottom
I don't want no problems
But I'll finish if start it
People wondering if I'ma hit or miss
I got em'
Hitting every syllable
I say it like its minimal
Missin' every interval
To fill the space so wonderful
Spitting out a newer view
So I can show the few of you
What I'm really meaning
When I tell you what Im seein too
Timing like I multiply
Fighting me don't wanna try
Give me rules and I'll defy em'
Theres nothing for him that I won't go through
Cause when your heart is devoted
There's nothin' you can't do
