Wanna Be Heard

It's like sometimes I don't think y'all understand who I am man
I'm just a good kid from Suffolk that wanna rap
I don't represent no colors I represent my lil sisters and brothers
I'm the oldest nigga

Yea
Regardless if you fuck with me or not
Ima always have that hunger just to reach the top spot
I wanna be the best that I can be
Best of my ability
I'm not worried bout negativity 2019
I'm focused on me
I'm focused on God
He gon put me in positions my talent can take me far
The almighty God and God of bars, crazy combo
Any nigga going toe to toe is out the convo
Win or lose I never change like Rondo
You niggas act accordingly hand in ya back like Gonzo
Saying you got guns but can't shoot, niggas Lonzo
Say you moving pounds from here to Maryland like Monroe
You ain't a failure until you quit your dreams
And my grandma always told me I can be what I wanna be
And chase my goals
And never let nobody stop my dreams
Stay true to the grind and keep a supportive team
I gotta succeed, gotta do this full time
Used to do it part time but now I'm snapping off with rhymes
2015, I took a year off the music
2016, man like was just confusing
2017, I lost my grandma, it was therapeutic
2018, I put in work, now I'm more fluent
Cause I ain't know which way I wanted to take it
Now it's 2019 it's time to be heard
No more waiting, zero patience

Yea yea that's my word
Make a statement with these nouns and verbs
I represent the liquor that poured out on the curb
Listen to my nouns and verbs
Man I wanna be heard
Like a cattle of sheep while y'all sleep
I be up, cooking up, all day
Like a mad scientist, in the laboratory
Motherfuck what a critic gotta say
Ima be heard

I love this rap shit, mainly soul shit
I miss this boom bap rap I wish this shit would come back
Man I miss Common from the 90s and the 2000s
Outkast, Kanye before he started wildin
I miss that J Dilla, I miss that Pete Rock
DMX when he said shutem down open up shop
I miss that old Jay-Z, he was giving out bars and shit
Him and Nas had the beef was happy when they squashed that shit
I miss that Mobb Deep, Kweli, Cassidy, 50 Cent, Dipset
Wait a minute I ain't finished yet
Dr. Dre, Ghostface, Scarface, Mase, Lil Kim, Lil Wayne when he was snapping on the mixtapes
MF Doom, Lauren Hill, Rakim had skills
Q-Tip was good for ya ears
Busta Rhymes always made the shit that we can feel
The Lox was the hardest group because they kept it real
I'm talking real music, the good era of hip hop
It's sad when I turned three I lost biggie and Tupac
And to pay respect, ima take two shots
Cause they my influences so I can't stop nigga

Yea yea that's my word
Make a statement with these nouns and verbs
I represent the liquor that poured out on the curb
Listen to my nouns and verbs
Man I wanna be heard
Like a cattle of sheep while y'all sleep
I be up, cooking up, all day
Like a mad scientist, in the laboratory
Motherfuck what a critic gotta say
Ima be heard
