1997

I know it's cliche to talk about when I was born
Half God, Half Child that's when I was torn
I don't really think I'm God but you see the sword
I think I always fucking felt this way since I was four
I can't help but to have a chip on my shoulder
97 fucking songs I gotta be closer
I'm so sick and tired of being put on a roller
Pushin' me close to the edge but I ain't going over
I'm just getting the mortar for the road that I pave
Giving a strong foundation for the road that I blaze
Making a strong creation for the souls that I save
A very clear dictation for the words that I gave
And by association I'm guilty of fame
But I ain't reach it yet, and yeah I know that I'm closer
Every step that I take, gets slower and slower
That's how it goes when you start you gotta keep going forward
No matter how bright, fucking overexposure
You'll get stripped down, indecent exposure
You gotta stay the course, you gotta rock with a loner
No matter how tough you gotta keep your composure
You gotta stay rare, fucking 4 leaf clover
You gotta cross the seas, fucking Japanese clover
The only reason that I'm saying that you gotta be up
And if you feel like going down you gotta keep pushing over

But at the same time

I understand the hate
I understand the pain
But the people around I promise their not to blame
You gotta focus on yourself you can't just stay the same
You gotta look at the legends you gotta give the same
You gotta look at the legends you gotta relate
I'm talking Juice and Peep, I'm talking Mac the same
You gotta look at yourself and realize you gotta do the same

So don't look at me, and question what I'm doing
I'm on a one-way path that's way that I'm moving
33401 that's the way I'm moving
I got nothing for you, it's myself I'm proving, right

So don't you ever dare to question my path
I'm full speed ahead and I ain't looking back
And if I give you my trust I swear I better never see you try to hand it back
Yeah I get shit happens, but it don't happen twice
I'll think once, but I'll stab twice
Don't disrespect me man don't roll the dice
I got a crew on my back, but I'm the leading one
I don't gotta prove shit man I'm the chosen one
They trust me by nature, I mean everyone
When you walk and look they'll say I'm the one
And when I walk away, yeah I still won

Ignorance is bliss, and you can't see that
I understand you're blind but I can't feel bad
Cause my words are heavy and I know you feel that
So how can you look me in the eyes and tell me I'm wrong
But walk, away and still feel bad?

You don't, that's the thing man
I use to be your homie, I was your wing man
But you flew to the towers, that's suicide
So I'm sorry bro, but I can't ride
No more
Yeah
