The Journey

Yeah, check check
It's ya man Unkle Samm
I got somethin' to say

This whole dream started on Hill Street
Just a few kids rappin' on some lil beats
Thinkin' one day the whole world gon' feel me
But some of us don't even make it out where the pills be
Instead you either dead or locked up where the meals free
Can't stop shootin' the arm because the thrills cheap
Livin' your days with no memories or real teeth
But I wanted more so I focused to make bills breed
Started in a closet, people started to acknowledge
Got a followin' in college, graduated with some knowledge
Every talent show was rockin', takin' stages hearing gossip
Talkin' took a pausin' 'til they heard me now they noddin
Jaws hittin' the floor
Ain't drippin' in Dior, not how I'm spendin' my dough
Friends tellin' me we close when I'm performin' a show
I'm leavin' tickets at the door and they still didn't support
But these beats I've been bodyin
Grindin' hard while y'all was either sleepin' or just partyin
Hoosier at heart but residence is with them Guardians
I've done hella shows where I hardly had an audience
Never could I start to quit my dream too big to part with it
Beefin' that they thought they did I've already slaughtered it
So if I quit I'm not legit, never was the smartest kid
If I talk it then I walk it, why I got a lot of darker friends
Cause some would say I have a magic flow
I'd say thats factual, better when you've packed a bowl
My social class been low, blessed for any cash I've blown
My Papa's childhood home, still on a gravel road
Ain't have a lavish 'drobe but never asked for more
As my passion grows from hot to dragon smoke
They was crackin' jokes before I had them shows
Hearin' claps and Ohs, daps from raps I wrote
Spare your two cents I'm bout to be a nuisance
I'm shreddin' any blueprint of how you're 'spose to do this
Favorites when they're clueless I say "I rap" they say Prove it!
Murderin' these beats like Dwight Schrute was on a juice cleanse
Been stressin' over needs
Hella depressed to say the least, 'til I invested into me
The devil clever in deceit but God had blessins on repeat
Went from eleven streams a week to Pat confessin' bout my heat
Impressions from his tweets now I ain't hedgin' on defeat
Ain't reppin' that I'm street I'm just a veteran of peace
Don't go expectin' anything cause I've learned lessons in defeat
My calories be the only deficit I need

Yeah, one take
Lets get it
It starts today
