Dues in Sacrifice

Life's not easy, gotta find ways to keep going This not made for the weak, gotta find ways
To stay strong
Seven days out the week, I'm grinding hard
To put on
Put my heart in my art, not my heart on my
Sleeve
I find it hard to believe they didn't believe out The gate

All this talent, hard work, I was told that's What it takes
Had no food on my plate, that's why I'm never
Taking breaks
I'm the best in my city and that's not up
For debate

I can share blood with these niggas and they Still can't relate
How you say you gotta dream to chase and
Your shoes not even laced
It's a marathon, not a race, but as far as
I'm convinced I'm here to finish first place
Truth be told, I'm being honest
Try they best, still no contest, cause my style's Too complex
Raw like latex, only time I'm playing
Games is when I'm playing on they playlist Dirty how I do them, so I'm sure they
Due for maintenance
Can't just copy and paste this, plenty years
On this cadence
Excellence is of essence, just the way I line Them up you would think barbering's how I'm Licensed
If I pitched up the challenge like crickets, all I Hear is silence
I found peace out of violence, swear this took Way more than talent
Turned into the villain, could see the trauma in My eyes

My aim is for the price, I paid my dues in Sacrifice
So look, yeah
Just let the beat play out on this one Lucid
Yeah, just let it play out
