MUD TO MARBLE

808, Van Gammon, from the Mud

Metamorph from the mud, tears sweat and blood
From the client to the plug, hard to marvel where we come
From and then some what's up
Doing what we love
Just to elevate the status to the marble from the mud
To the marble from the mud

Prey on a hater cuz sooner or later, they'll pray to get rid of you,
Did it so major, I'm making they major look extra curricular
Hands dirty but the fit's clean
My art wall to wall like the Sistine
Got the income flowing six streams
I'm mister everywhere you can't miss me
Told the squad, let's make the plan happen
Now the faces blue like Dr. Manhattan
Watchman, if we catch 'em lackin
We gon sand bag 'em off the bandwagon
Childhood trauma still ain't healed from
Couldn't buy this joy with 50 billion
Talking bands then we on the same drum
Gotta love the struggle where we came from, yeah

Metamorph from the mud, tears sweat and blood
From the client to the plug, hard to marvel where we come
From and then some what's up
Doing what we love
Just to elevate the status to the marble from the mud
To the marble from the mud

Back in 05
Touch down from the west side to the south side for the hustle
Twice the ethic and discipline, half vision and skill of a veteran
Knew I could make it on Letterman, eyes On Conan no not the barbarian
Savage and hungry Nigerian stealing the cap of America
Knew I could dream, head full of steam
Looking real lean, taking some Ls for the team
Knew I was green, still had a scheme
Had to look out for my queen
Fighting the debt, collecting the stress to see that the pristine wasn't so clean
When the snake selling you pipe dreams
Had to fill the layers over centuries
Took a whole renaissance to chisel me
Now the whole world can take a minute just to marvel at the marble
When it came from the gravel

Metamorph from the mud, tears sweat and blood
From the client to the plug, hard to marvel where we come
From and then some what's up
Doing what we love
Just to elevate the status to the marble from the mud
To the marble from the mud
