Athena City

Pen to the pad, that's how I'll be great
The only one I know moving state to state
I heard niggas got doubts, now you niggas snakes
My time now, Jeter at the plate
Finesse my time, I gotta get going
People telling me, E chill, you're still growing
Breathe, accept the path that you're on
It's a game of chess, moving like a pawn
Momma taking checks to let her dreams go, gone
Hiding from the world in my car writing songs
Thank God for Athens, but it's still not far
Dust mite livin' in the shadow of potential
A shootin' star
Dad with the bootstraps saying just work real hard
Understand that fade from you, left me the scar
Imported beat from over seas, bet that's new to ya
Can't work with just being regular
Tryna go at life's jugular
Put the metal to the shit, Ed Elric ya
Money bet you didn't get the metaphor
Knowing it's my own fears that manifest
Looking everywhere for answers except the test
I only rap 'cause I gotta this off my chest
Weight of my doubts, 45's on a bench press
This ones for the kid, now a man
Looking back at everything that he did
Like damn look at where you been
Look at where you've lived
Dodged a bid and achieved
Can't tell me shit
I made it to Greece
Bitch
