Outro

Cliff I miss you, I get sad that I can't see you no mo
I started rapping and I wish that you could hear how I flow
I'm like the Nile, go for miles, flow as cold as the snow
If this was GTA my cheat code unlimited ammo
Won't forget the hard times, but I had to outgrow
All that pain and depression that I always kept close
Let the pain and depression go, it's all in my notes
I was trapped in my own mind, got my back off my ropes
I just thought that you would help me, but you took me for jokes
When you turned your back on me, that's what hurt me the most
Had to change my name to Casper, cause I had to go ghost
You said this was forever, that was really a quote
I was crying you was lying just to keep me afloat
Come to find out you was poison never an antidote
Waited til I wasn't looking then you went for the throat
I'm just speaking on my pain, now I rap anecdotes

Always added to my problems, you was never subtracting
That shit hurt me it be times that I wish it didn't happen
But I know if didn't happen, I wouldn't be rapping
So in essence this is thank you for the demons you stacking
I been working on my punches, now fighting I'm jabbing
Really going from rags to riches now I feel like Aladdin
I'm running routes and making plays, now they think Im playing Madden

And now I know my worth I swear Im never going backwards
No when I was growing up, I never thought I'd be a rapper
I was trying to be an athlete I was running on a ladder
I was hooping, I be shooting, I was trying hit a dagger
Til I realized what my purpose was and then I made it happen
I done did it, I done lived it and I told it without capping
Somebody tell me what's there more for me to do to feed my family

This shit get a hold of me, it lead me to insanity
Sometimes I feel I'm tripping and I'm living in a fantasy
Don't know if my heart work I ain't feeling no monogamy
Stole my feelings from me, it's a stick up, it's a robbery
I know I'm worth a ticket, had to tell her I'm the lottery
Been growing, I ain't tripping, you can leave, It ain't gone bother me
Know my brothers got my back, I'm down, they reviving me
How I'm feeling, now I'm living, bet you I won't die again
If I'm failing and I'm trying, bet you I'm gone try again
Know that life gone turn around, it's all in perfect timing
Know that ima make it, I'm Mufasa I'm a Lion
Im swimming in deep water I ain't drowning
I'm Poseidon. Learning how to weather all my storms, got a trident
Now she wanna take me out to dinner like I'm Biden
Now she wanna fuck and have my babies, like I'm Byron
But I ain't out here playing in the field, I'm retiring
You just trying to trap me and control me you a tyrant
You might be fine, but know that you a monster, you a siren

Really out here hooping now, I'm really out here rhyming
Know that it's surprising, when they see me I be silent
Really it's a warzone in my brain, it get violent
I know that life gone turn around, it's all in perfect timing

And now I know my worth I swear Im never going backwards
No when I was growing up, I never thought I'd be a rapper
I was trying to be an athlete I was running on a ladder
I was hooping, I be shooting, I was trying hit a dagger
Til I realized what my purpose was and then I made it happen
I done did it, I done lived it and I told it without capping
Somebody tell me what's there more for me to do to feed my family

Man I know that life gone turn around, it's all in perfect timing
