Ain't Runnin' Back

Come, take a look at what I've started, but I ain't goin' back
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home
Come, take a look at what I've started, but I ain't goin' back
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home
Come, take a look at what I've started, but I ain't goin' back
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home
Come, take a look at what I've started, but I ain't goin' back
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home

Yo, ever since I started puttin' up ideas
Buildin' 'em like motherfuckin' IKEA
I surprised a lotta my fuckin' colleagues and
Told 'em I'ma make money outta what's real
Though, it was kinda hard pitting on my confidence
And seemed that my pen ain't congruent
With what I wanna dream so I put a thicker steam
And moved along with any of their compliments
I'm composite
Back when I didn't have any purpose in life
I was dead in my eyes with vultures flyin' circles at the sky
Eatin' piles while burnin' under sunlight
Then it got me thinkin', if I ever wanna change the world
Should I stop all this dreamin' or should I start bleedin'?
Should I live it to my limit than to gimmick
And be praised for what I'm seekin'? Yeah
Even if it will, take me a few years to get me bills
I'm not gonna sit still
If you think I'ma wait for the clouds to rain me down
'Til I get ill, nah, let's be real for a minute
I'm broke as fuck, couldn't even pay attention
So I'll ask another session and pretend I'm on detention
Before I lose redemption, I'll pour up for the fellas, aye

Come, take a look at what I've started, but I ain't goin' back
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home
Come, take a look at what I've started, but I ain't goin' back
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home
Come, take a look at what I've started, but I ain't goin' back
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home
Come, take a look at what I've started, but I ain't goin' back
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home (Buc, buc, buc)

Buckle up, hustle up
It's a lyrical murder I choose to fuckin' pursue
Ever heard of Steve? Nah
'Cause you couldn't even get a single goddamn clue
It's another wick to fuse
E'rday, it feels like I'm DJ Khaled only reversed
Not sufferin' success (success), fuck, it only gets worst
Wish my music gets out for the first time
Funny, 'cause that's oddly the punchline
Heard of a suburban kid
With a burning wish and writes every comedic line?
But sounds as if he's wastin' time
Shouldn't we be lookin' at what we need to be doin'?
Discontinue all the motherfuckin' nuisance
Boot it 'til we get the job that we always been out and lookin', aye
I ain't gaining to live so normal, bitch
I wanna be iconic like Jay-Z, Pac, Biggie, Drake
Nas, Ice, and so on, with this
It's the holy grail, don't be scared
Failure is common, you'll be facin' it a lot
So, why not give it a shot? If it hits in your face
Don't give any fucks, aye

Come, take a look at what I've started (Aye, aye)
But I ain't goin' back (Yeah)
Ain't runnin' back
Ain't runnin' back home (Oh, you think I'm givin' up on this shit?)
Come, take a look (Nah)
At what I've started (I ain't quittin' that easy)
But I ain't goin' back (Ain't backin' down on this)
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home
Come, take a look at what I've started (I just started in the game)
But I ain't goin' back (Mahfucker)
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home (Ain't quittin' now)
Come, take a look at what I've started (Fuck that)
But I ain't goin' back (Ain't runnin', ain't runnin')
Ain't runnin' back, ain't runnin' back home
