[Intro]

Yeah, alright


[Verse 1]

Yeah, we out here, rappin' for the love of it

Love of it, ya feel it when I spit and go and take a hit

'Cause we was made for this

I need the lights, camera, action, bitch

Livin' for the moment, only did it all without a script

Didn't get no cosigns while I was spittin' dope rhymes

Calls to my conscious, son, I'm usin' up my lifelines

Kids comin' up in my town, now they all recordin' now

To claim that they been in it longer, that's some shit I won't allow

Contemplated suicide, for me this shit was do-or-die

Y'all started for fun, I started rappin' just to stay alive

When the heart inside me died, the love I had was crucified

Had to find another place where my emotions could lie

So I went straight to the paper

Told the old life I lived, "Take a life, and see you later"

Thank you music, you have been my savior


[Chorus]

Started with the pain, quickly turned to everything

The life I'm livin' now compared to last, it just don't feel the same

I won't complain, y'all all really love the change

Now these people bump my music who don't know my real name (my real name)

And that's a crazy feelin'

Friends say, "Stay humble," but I don't know how I'm dealin' (I'm dealin')

I can't lie, I want it all

When a chance gives me a ring, yo, I'm pickin' up the call (call)


[Verse 2]

I've picked up the pen, dropped all my negative friends

'Cause when it came to lookin' at my dreams, we had a different lense

Eliminate, I levitate, considerin' the person in the end

Yo, it all depends

Me, I'm movitated by the positivity, so I moved out of my circle

Found the circle that surroundin' me

Those who all believed that I could truly reach

The only thing I see when I'm deepest in my sleep

Yeah, but we still so small, workin' till the day that they say every word we lay is quotable

Yeah, and that's legendary

My dreams' so big that most these people 'round me find them scary

Thinkin' I ain't serious, but I ain't no Jimmy Carrey

Tryna show the world that the future is ours

They tryna shoot me down while I'm shootin' for the stars

Find me some day just a little past Mars


[Chorus]

Started with the pain, quickly turned to everything

The life I'm livin' now compared to last, it just don't feel the same

I won't complain, y'all all really love the change

Now these people bump my music who don't know my real name (my real name)

And that's a crazy feelin'

Friends say, "Stay humble," but I don't know how I'm dealin' (I'm dealin')

I can't lie, I want it all

When a chance gives me a ring, yo, I'm pickin' up the call


[Outro]

Started with the pain, quickly turned to everything

The life I'm livin' now compared to last, it just don't feel the same

I won't complain, y'all all really love the change

Now these people bump my music who don't know my real name

My real name, my real name

When a chance gives me a ring, yo, I'm pickin' up the call
